Opportunity Summary:
The Climate Change Communication Internships opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOI NCRO R3992120308) is a National Park Service (NPS) discretionary funding action that will be issued as a cooperative agreement under the Chesapeake Watershed Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU). The activity category is Natural Resources, and the program is associated with CFDA 15.945, which covers Cooperative Research and Training Programs related to the resources of the National Park System. The stated intent is to support climate change communication internships, although the public notice itself does not provide programmatic details beyond indicating that additional information was contained in an attached announcement.
This notice is not an open competition and is not requesting applications. It is a notice of intent for a single-source, noncompetitive award to George Mason University, and it is being made under the Department of the Interior authority cited as 505 Departmental Manual 2.12C. Because it is a noncompetitive CESU task agreement action, other organizations are not being solicited to apply, even though the eligibility field lists "Others" with clarification pointing back to the single-source nature of the award. In practical terms, this posting functions mainly as a transparency and public notice requirement rather than a typical grant solicitation.
The opportunity anticipated one award with an estimated total funding amount of $79,033. No cost sharing or matching was required. The posting listed no award ceiling or floor (both shown as $0), which usually indicates those values were not used for this announcement rather than implying the award amount would be zero. Key dates show it was posted on April 17, 2012, with an original and current closing date of April 19, 2012, and an archive date of May 19, 2012, reflecting the short window typical of notices of intent for single-source awards rather than competitive funding rounds.
For questions or issues accessing the full announcement, the NPS provided a point of contact: Rita Mihalik, Contract Specialist, at 301-432-7890 or ritamihalik@nps.gov.
