Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS) grant opportunity titled "Cooperative Research Restoration" (Funding Opportunity Number: NPS NOIP11AC80335) is a discretionary funding action in the Natural Resources category under CFDA 15.944, Natural Resource Stewardship. It is structured as a Cooperative Agreement, which typically means the NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the work alongside the recipient, rather than simply providing funds with minimal federal participation.
This posting is a Notice of Intent for a noncompetitive, single-source award to the Santa Barbara Botanic Garden. In practical terms, it is not a call for proposals and it is not open for other applicants to compete. The announcement explicitly states that it is "not a request for applications" and that the recipient has already been identified. The noncompetitive approach is being made under the Department of the Interior authority cited as DOI 505 DM 2.12C, which is the internal policy reference the agency is using to justify and document the single-source award process.
The NPS anticipated making one award with an award ceiling of $100,000, and there is no cost sharing or matching requirement. The opportunity was posted and created on August 6, 2011, with an original and current closing date of August 11, 2011, and it was archived on September 10, 2011. The short window between posting and closing is consistent with a notice intended to document and publicize a pre-selected, single-recipient cooperative agreement rather than solicit applications from the public.
While the summary text does not provide detailed project tasks, the title and category indicate the focus is cooperative research related to restoration work, aligned with NPS natural resource stewardship goals. For anyone trying to obtain the complete specifics, the announcement notes that additional information is contained in an attached document. If there are issues accessing the full announcement electronically, the listed point of contact is Yvonne Morales, Contract Specialist, at 415-464-5221 or yvonnemorales@nps.gov.
