Opportunity Summary:

The grant opportunity titled "Complete roadbed survey along the historic US 66 corridor in Arizona" (Funding Opportunity Number NPSNOINTIR1301091) is a National Park Service (NPS) Notice of Intent that signals the agency's plan to issue a task agreement under an already-existing cooperative agreement. In practical terms, this is not a broadly competed grant solicitation; it is an announcement that NPS intends to fund specific work through the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) to carry out a roadbed survey along portions of the historic U.S. Route 66 corridor in Arizona. The project sits within the natural resources funding activity area and is associated with CFDA 15.935, National Trails System Projects, which aligns with preservation, documentation, and stewardship work connected to nationally significant trail and route resources.

The purpose of the planned task agreement is to complete a roadbed survey, meaning a focused assessment and documentation effort related to the physical roadway base and associated corridor conditions along historic Route 66 in Arizona. While the notice does not spell out technical deliverables in detail, roadbed surveys generally involve identifying roadway alignments, recording existing conditions, mapping features, noting areas of deterioration or risk, and compiling baseline information that can support future preservation planning, maintenance decisions, interpretation, and management of historic transportation resources. Because the work is tied to the historic US 66 corridor, the survey is likely intended to help inform preservation and stewardship strategies for a nationally recognized cultural and historic route that intersects with National Trails System-related priorities.

Funding for this action is modest and targeted. The estimated total funding amount is $39,750, with an expected single award. The listing shows no cost-sharing or matching requirement, indicating that the recipient is not expected to provide a formal non-federal match as a condition of the award. The award ceiling and floor are both listed as $0, which typically appears in notices like this when the agency is not using the ceiling/floor fields in a conventional competitive sense, especially when the announcement is primarily a formal notice of intent rather than a competitive grant with variable award sizes.

Eligibility is effectively limited by design. Although the system category lists "Others (see text field...)," the eligibility clarification states explicitly that the award will be made to the Arizona Department of Transportation under an existing cooperative agreement. This reinforces that it is not open to general applicants and serves mainly as a public transparency posting about the agency's intent to proceed with a particular partner and project.

Timing information further reflects the notice-of-intent nature and the narrow window typical of such postings. The opportunity was posted and created on August 5, 2013, with an original and current closing date of August 7, 2013, and it was archived on August 8, 2013. Those dates indicate that the announcement functioned more as a short administrative notice rather than a conventional application period intended for multiple applicants.

The issuing agency is the National Park Service. For access issues related to the full announcement, the listed point of contact is Trish Fresquez Hernandez, Contract Specialist, reachable by phone at 505-988-6122.
