Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "Conduct accuracy assessments of completed vegetation mapping," is a National Park Service (NPS) discretionary funding notice tied to natural resources work. The stated purpose is narrowly focused: it supports a task agreement under an already-existing cooperative agreement to carry out accuracy assessments of vegetation mapping products that have been completed for the Sonoran Desert Networks. In practical terms, the work is about evaluating how accurate the existing vegetation maps are, rather than producing new mapping from scratch. The announcement frames the effort as a quality-control and validation step meant to verify the reliability of the mapping outputs used for resource management in the Sonoran Desert Network area.
The opportunity is listed under Funding Opportunity Number NPSNOISODN107020 and was posted on August 18, 2010, with an extremely short turnaround: the original and current closing date is August 19, 2010, and the notice was archived on August 20, 2010. The expected number of awards is one, with an estimated total funding amount of $34,316. No cost sharing or matching requirement is indicated. Both the award ceiling and floor are listed as zero, which often appears in notices where the funding level is handled through an internal agreement structure rather than an open competitive range.
Eligibility is not presented as broadly competitive. The notice explicitly states it is "for informational purposes only" and functions as a Notice of Intent to award to a specific organization: the Student Conservation Association. The CFDA listing included is 15.931, "Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations," reinforcing that the intended partner is a youth conservation service organization operating under a cooperative agreement mechanism with NPS. Because it is a task agreement against an existing cooperative agreement, the structure suggests that the partner relationship and administrative framework were already in place, and this action is meant to add a defined scope of work focused on assessing the accuracy of previously completed vegetation mapping for the Sonoran Desert Network.
For administrative and access questions, the listed point of contact is Rhonda Martinez, Contract Specialist at the National Park Service, with a phone number provided (505-988-6042).
