Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS), within the U.S. Department of the Interior, issued a Notice of Intent to Award for a project titled "Conduct Historical Research for Governors Island National Monument" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS 12 NERO 0082). This announcement is strictly a public notice and not a request for applications, meaning the NPS was not seeking proposals from the general public or opening a competitive application process. Instead, it communicated the agency's intent to move forward with a specific agreement arrangement without full and open competition.
The planned award mechanism is a cooperative agreement, and the NPS indicated it expected to make exactly one award. The intended partner (cooperator) is Columbia University, identified as the recipient under Task Agreement P12AC10964 associated with Cooperative Agreement H4503090700. The opportunity is categorized as discretionary funding and falls under the activity areas of education and environment, aligning with NPS priorities related to research, interpretation, and stewardship of national park resources.
Funding for the project was set at a total of $26,701, with the award floor and award ceiling both listed as $26,701, indicating a fixed anticipated award amount rather than a range. No cost sharing or matching requirement was identified, so the recipient was not expected to contribute matching funds as a condition of the agreement. The relevant CFDA program listing is 15.945, Cooperative Research and Training Programs - Resources of the National Park System, which commonly supports collaborative research and related work that benefits NPS units and their resource management or interpretive goals.
The posting date and creation date were both July 13, 2012, with an original and current closing date of July 18, 2012, and an archive date of July 19, 2012. Those dates function largely as administrative markers for the notice rather than an application window, since the announcement explicitly states it is not soliciting applications. Eligibility is listed as private institutions of higher education, which is consistent with the identified recipient being Columbia University.
For additional details, the notice directs readers to the attachment included under the "Full Announcement" section, which would contain the complete project description and supporting documentation. The listed point of contact for access issues is Keith Zotti, Partnership Program Specialist, reachable by phone at 215-597-9153, with the reference "CESU GOIS," indicating the cooperative ecosystem often used for NPS research partnerships.
