Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS) announced a Notice of Intent to make a single, noncompetitive cooperative agreement award for cultural resource monitoring connected to the Abbots Lagoon Dunes Restoration Project. The opportunity is identified as Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIJ2011111149 and is categorized as a discretionary funding action under a Cooperative Agreement funding instrument. Rather than being an open solicitation, the announcement explicitly states that it is not a request for applications and is being issued to document the government s intent to proceed with a specific award.
The work will be carried out through a task agreement issued under an existing umbrella cooperative agreement, Umbrella Cooperative Agreement Number H8537070193. The NPS cites DOI 505 DM 2.12C as the authority for making the award noncompetitively, which indicates the agency is using an approved policy basis for a single source selection in this circumstance. The funding activity is listed under Cultural Resources, and the CFDA number referenced is 15.922, associated with the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act, signaling that the effort relates to protecting, monitoring, and appropriately handling sensitive cultural materials and sites that may be present or exposed during restoration activities.
The announcement anticipates one award with an estimated total funding amount of 32,542 USD. No cost sharing or matching is required. The award ceiling and floor are listed as zero, which commonly appears in notices that are informational or administrative in nature and may reflect that the specific obligated amount is defined in the associated task agreement rather than in a competitive funding range. The posting and creation date are March 9, 2011, with an original and current closing date of March 14, 2011, and an archive date of April 13, 2011, consistent with a short administrative window typical of a notice of intent rather than a competitive application period.
Eligibility is effectively limited to a named recipient. The notice states the action is a single source award to the Federated Indians of Graton Rancheria. This aligns with the cultural resource monitoring purpose and the legal and consultation context that often accompanies projects where tribal cultural resources, traditional knowledge, or sensitive areas may be involved, especially during ground disturbance or habitat restoration work.
For access issues related to the full announcement, the NPS provided a point of contact: Yvonne Morales, Contract Specialist, reachable by phone at 415 464 5221 or by email at yvonnemorales@nps.gov.
