Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS) funding opportunity titled "Complete Ethnographic Overview" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIR1380129015) is a discretionary cooperative agreement under the Natural Resources activity category. It is associated with CFDA 15.945, Cooperative Research and Training Programs - Resources of the National Park System, and is being issued through the National Park Service Rocky Mountain Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU). The notice describes an intent to make a task agreement award, meaning the work would be carried out under the CESU framework, which is commonly used by NPS to partner with academic institutions and other qualified entities for research, technical assistance, and similar projects that support park management and resource stewardship.
This announcement is not a competitive solicitation and is explicitly not a request for applications. Instead, it is a single-source, noncompetitive award identified in advance for the University of Montana. The justification for using a noncompetitive approach is cited as being in accordance with Department of the Interior policy, specifically 505 Departmental Manual 2.12C, which covers circumstances where noncompetitive financial assistance awards may be appropriate. In practical terms, this means other organizations are not being invited to apply, and the "Eligible Applicants" category is effectively overridden by the stated eligibility clarification that only the University of Montana is intended to receive the award.
The opportunity anticipates one award with an estimated total funding amount of $45,000, and it states that there is no cost sharing or matching requirement. The listing shows no award floor or ceiling (both listed as 0), which typically indicates that the specific funding level is defined in the underlying task agreement and associated documents rather than expressed as a competitive range in the public synopsis. Key dates show the opportunity was posted and created on June 13, 2012, with an original and current closing date of June 18, 2012, and an archive date of July 18, 2012, reflecting that this was a time-limited public notice rather than an open call for proposals.
For administrative or access issues related to obtaining the full announcement materials, the listed point of contact is Kelly Adams, Grants Management Specialist, reachable by phone at 303-969-2392.
