Opportunity Summary:
This opportunity, titled "Data Management and Program Support for the Northeast Coastal and" (Funding Opportunity Number: NPS 11 NERO 0085), is a National Park Service (NPS) notice stating its intent to make an award rather than an open call for applications. The notice is explicit that it is not a request for applications and is being posted only to satisfy public notice requirements. In practical terms, the NPS is announcing that it plans to fund a specific set of project activities through a non-competitive action, rather than soliciting proposals from multiple organizations.
The award mechanism is a Cooperative Agreement under the NPS Cooperative Research and Training Programs authority (CFDA 15.945), within the Natural Resources funding activity category. The planned action is identified as Modification 001 to Task Agreement J4531100845 under an existing Cooperative Agreement (H4503090700) associated with a CESU (Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Units) arrangement. The named cooperator is the University of Rhode Island, and the eligible applicant category listed is public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, consistent with the academic partnership structure typical of CESU agreements.
Funding details are narrowly defined, which aligns with the fact that this is an intended, single-recipient action. The NPS anticipates one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $70,932. The award ceiling and floor are both $70,932, meaning the amount is fixed rather than a range. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement indicated, so the recipient is not expected to provide non-federal match as a condition of the award.
The timeline included in the notice reflects the administrative posting period rather than a competitive application window. The opportunity was posted and created on August 8, 2011, with an original and current closing date of August 14, 2011, and an archive date of August 15, 2011. Because this is not a solicitation, those dates function mainly as the period during which the public notice is available before it is archived.
As described, the project scope is summarized at a high level as "data management and program support" for the NPS in the Northeast coastal context, with further specifics referenced as being contained in an attachment available under the "Full Announcement" section. The notice indicates that the project activities are being funded without full and open competition as a modification to an existing task agreement, which typically implies continuation or expansion of ongoing work already being performed under the established cooperative framework.
For access issues or administrative questions about the announcement materials, the listed point of contact is Peggy Wall, Administrative Officer, reachable by phone at 410-260-2473. The brief reference "URI NCBN Mod" suggests the action relates to the University of Rhode Island and a network or program abbreviation (NCBN), consistent with the broader theme of networked coastal or natural resource data coordination and support within the NPS Northeast region.
