Opportunity Summary:
The Crater Lake National Park Research opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIP12PC30371) is a National Park Service discretionary funding action in the Natural Resources activity area, issued as a Notice of Intent rather than an open call for proposals. The funding instrument is a Cooperative Agreement, which typically indicates that the National Park Service expects to have substantial involvement in the supported work (for example, collaborating on project direction, coordination, or technical participation) rather than simply issuing a grant with minimal federal engagement.
This announcement is explicitly not a request for applications and is not competitive. Instead, it is a single-source, noncompetitive award issued in accordance with Department of the Interior policy cited as DOI 505 DM 2.12C. The intended recipients are Southern Oregon University and the Oregon Institute of Technology, and the National Park Service anticipates making two awards associated with these partners. Because it is noncompetitive and directed to named institutions, other organizations are not being invited to apply through this notice.
The estimated total funding listed for the action is $500,000, with an award ceiling of $500,000 and an award floor of $0. A cost sharing or matching requirement is indicated as "Yes," meaning the recipient institutions are expected to contribute non-federal resources toward the project(s), although the specific match percentage or allowable forms of match would normally be defined in the full attached announcement or the cooperative agreement terms.
Key dates show the opportunity was posted and created on May 17, 2012, with an original and current closing date of May 22, 2012, and an archive date of June 21, 2012. These dates function more as administrative posting and recordkeeping milestones than as a true application deadline, since the notice is not soliciting applications from the public.
The listing is associated with CFDA number 15.944, Natural Resource Stewardship, which aligns with research and stewardship activities tied to national park natural resources. For questions or issues accessing the full announcement, the posted point of contact is Yvonne Morales, Contract Specialist at the National Park Service, reachable by phone at 415-464-5221 or by email at yvonnemorales@nps.gov.
