Opportunity Summary:
The Channel Islands Live opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIP1210493) is a National Park Service (NPS) discretionary funding action in the Natural Resources funding activity area, tied to CFDA 15.944, Natural Resource Stewardship. Rather than being an open grant competition, it is a Notice of Intent indicating that NPS plans to make a single, noncompetitive award in the form of a cooperative agreement task agreement. The purpose is to issue a Task Agreement under an existing Cooperative Agreement (No. P12AC30239) with the Ventura County Office of Education, meaning the work is being added or continued under a pre-established partnership framework rather than solicited through a new request for proposals.
Because this is not a Request for Applications, the listing is primarily informational and is not intended to solicit proposals from other organizations. Eligibility is effectively limited to the identified partner, the Ventura County Office of Education, consistent with the announcement language stating it is a single-source award. The notice cites Department of the Interior manual section 505 DM 2.12C as the authority supporting the noncompetitive approach, which generally reflects circumstances where a sole-source award is justified under internal policy (for example, when there is a unique capability, an existing relationship, or continuity needs that make competition impractical or not in the government interest).
The opportunity anticipated one award (Expected Awards: 1). The posting date and creation date were both June 7, 2012, with an original and current closing date of June 11, 2012, and an archive date of July 11, 2012. No cost sharing or matching was required. Financial details in the source data show an estimated total funding amount of $39,000, while also listing an award ceiling of $650,000, which can indicate the maximum possible amount allowable under the agreement structure or program parameters even if the immediate planned action is much smaller.
For applicants or members of the public who needed help accessing the full announcement materials electronically, the contact listed was Yvonne Morales, Contract Specialist, reachable at 415-464-5221 or by email at yvonnemorales@nps.gov.
