Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS) posted a discretionary grant opportunity titled "CONSERVATION ECOLOGIST" under Funding Opportunity Number P14AS00167. The award is set up as a Cooperative Agreement, meaning the NPS expects to be substantially involved in the work alongside the recipient rather than simply providing funds with minimal interaction. The program sits within the Science and Technology and other Research and Development category and is tied to CFDA 15.954, which covers NPS activities related to conservation, protection, outreach, and education.
This opportunity is associated with a Master Cooperative Agreement (H5000105040) focused on monitoring two plant species in Everglades National Park: Florida pineland crabgrass and Everglades bully. The core purpose is to support conservation ecology work through field monitoring and related research activities that help the park understand the status, distribution, and potentially the management needs of these species. Because the short description emphasizes "monitoring," the work likely includes tasks such as locating populations, documenting abundance and condition over time, collecting standardized field observations, and producing data products or reporting that can inform park resource management decisions.
Funding is fixed at a total of $15,040, and the award ceiling and floor are both $15,040, indicating NPS intended to make a single award for exactly that amount. The opportunity anticipated one award. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants were not required to contribute additional non-federal funds to be eligible or competitive under the terms provided.
Eligibility is limited to nonprofits with IRS 501(c)(3) status, excluding institutions of higher education. The posting date and creation date were July 8, 2014, and the closing date was July 9, 2014, reflecting an extremely short application window. Additional details were available via Grants.gov, and the NPS contact listed for access issues or questions was Sandra Newton at (305) 242-7028 and SandraNewton@nps.gov.
