Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS), within the U.S. Department of the Interior, issued a Notice of Intent to Award for a project called "Determining Status of Surface Water Quality in Parks of the Pacific West Region." The key point of this notice is that it is not a competitive grant announcement and not a request for applications. Instead, it is a formal public posting meant to document and disclose that NPS plans to provide funding for specific project activities through an existing cooperative framework, without conducting full and open competition.
The opportunity is listed under Funding Opportunity Number P16AS00428 and is categorized as a discretionary award using a Cooperative Agreement as the funding instrument. The work falls under the Natural Resources activity category and is associated with CFDA number 15.945. Although the eligible applicant type is described broadly as public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, this particular action is intended for a single recipient: Oregon State University. Oregon State University is identified as a partner under the Pacific Northwest Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit, and the funding would be issued through Task Agreement P16AC01362 under Cooperative Agreement P16AC00003. In practical terms, that means NPS is leveraging a pre-established partnership vehicle designed to support collaborative research and technical work with academic institutions.
Financially, the notice indicates an award ceiling of $31,704 and an expectation of one award. The posting date (creation date) is August 2, 2016, and there is no application deadline because the announcement is informational rather than solicitational. The overall intent is to support work that assesses or characterizes the status of surface water quality in National Park Service units located in the Pacific West Region, consistent with NPS natural resource stewardship needs.
