Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "Develop a Southeast Utah Group wide Archeological Site Monitoring Plan" is a National Park Service (NPS) discretionary funding action intended to support natural resource stewardship across a set of NPS-managed units in Southeast Utah. The core purpose is to produce an archaeological site monitoring plan that can be applied group-wide, meaning it is meant to standardize or coordinate how archaeological sites are tracked, assessed, and protected across multiple parks or management areas within the Southeast Utah Group. In practical terms, this kind of monitoring plan typically lays out consistent methods for documenting site conditions, identifying threats (such as erosion, visitor impacts, looting, vandalism, or development pressures), setting priorities for which sites need routine checks, and establishing schedules, data standards, reporting procedures, and response steps when damage is discovered.
This notice is not a competitive grant solicitation. It is a formal notice of intent to make a noncompetitive (single-source) award under the Department of the Interior guidance cited as 505 Departmental Manual 2.12C, using the National Park Service Colorado Plateau Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) mechanism. The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates that NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the work as it is carried out (for example, providing direction, coordinating with park staff, or collaborating on methods and deliverables), rather than simply issuing a grant and receiving a final product.
Only one award was expected, and the announcement states that the recipient is predetermined: Crow Canyon Archaeological Center. Because it is a single-source award, the "Eligible Applicants" field lists "Others" with clarification that it is not a request for applications. In other words, outside organizations were not being invited to apply, and the posting functions mainly as a transparency and documentation step for the intended award.
Funding for the project was estimated at $32,900, with no cost-sharing or matching requirement. The opportunity was posted on July 13, 2011, with an original and current closing date of July 18, 2011, and it was later archived on August 17, 2011. The listing shows no award ceiling or floor (both listed as 0), which is common in postings where the total estimated amount is provided but a competitive range is not relevant because the award is noncompetitive.
Administratively, the opportunity falls under the Natural Resources activity category and references CFDA number 15.945, "Cooperative Research and Training Programs - Resources of the National Park System." The NPS point of contact provided for assistance accessing the full announcement is William Tallbull, Grant/Agreement Specialist, at 303-969-2891.
