Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS) issued a public notice titled "Develop videos for climate change and natural resource topics" under Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIWASOP12AC10650. Although it appears in the format of a federal funding opportunity, it is explicitly not a request for applications and was not intended to solicit proposals from the public. Instead, it serves as a transparency notice that the NPS planned to make a single, non-competitive award to support the creation of video content focused on climate change and natural resource topics connected to the National Park System.
The funding mechanism listed is a Cooperative Agreement, and the activity category is Natural Resources. The announcement indicates that one award was expected, with an estimated total funding amount of $46,375. The stated award ceiling is also $46,375, with an award floor of $0, and there is no cost-sharing or matching requirement. In other words, the project budget was capped at the total listed amount and did not require the recipient to contribute additional funds.
Eligibility in the general listing is described as "Public and State controlled institutions of higher education," but the notice makes clear that the intended recipient was Colorado State University. The NPS planned to issue a non-competitive task agreement to Colorado State University under an existing CESU cooperative agreement (H2370094000). CESU refers to the Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Units network, which is often used by Interior agencies to partner with universities and other organizations for research, technical assistance, and education projects. The justification for not competing the award is tied to Department of the Interior policy cited as 505 DM 2, which governs circumstances and procedures for limiting competition.
Key administrative dates show the notice was posted and created on June 18, 2012, with an original and current closing date of June 21, 2012, and an archive date of July 21, 2012. Because it was not a solicitation, the closing date functioned more as the end of the public notice window rather than an application deadline for external applicants.
For questions or access issues related to the full announcement, the listed point of contact was Alicia Broner, a Contract Specialist with the National Park Service, reachable by phone at 303-987-6734.
