Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS) posted a notice of intent to make a single, noncompetitive cooperative agreement award for a project titled "Civil War Contraband Ethnography Study, Wash DC" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOI NCRO R3992120016). The effort is framed as a cultural resources project and will be carried out through a task agreement under the National Park Service Chesapeake Watershed Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CW CESU), which is a cooperative research and training partnership mechanism used by NPS to obtain specialized academic and technical support.
This posting is not an open call or a request for applications. Instead, it serves primarily as an official public notice that NPS intends to issue a single-source award to American University, consistent with the Department of the Interior policy cited as 505 Departmental Manual 2.12C, which governs circumstances under which noncompetitive financial assistance agreements may be appropriate. Because it is a notice of intent rather than a competitive solicitation, other organizations are not being invited to submit proposals for consideration.
The opportunity is categorized as discretionary funding using a cooperative agreement instrument, with the related CFDA listing 15.945 (Cooperative Research and Training Programs - Resources of the National Park System). NPS anticipated making one award with an estimated total funding amount of $43,680. The listing shows no cost sharing or matching requirement. Award ceiling and floor are listed as zero, which commonly appears in announcements where the total project amount is specified elsewhere and the posting is administrative in nature rather than a competitive funding range.
Key dates indicate the notice was posted and created on August 14, 2012, with an original and current closing date of August 21, 2012, and an archive date of September 20, 2012. Anyone needing help accessing the full announcement was directed to contact Rita Mihalik, Contract Specialist, at 301-432-7890 or ritamihalik@nps.gov.
