Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "Ecolological Studies" (Funding Opportunity Number: NPS NOIBAND10219) is a National Park Service discretionary funding notice connected to natural resource work at Bandelier National Monument. The stated purpose is straightforward: it supports the continuation of ongoing ecological studies at the monument through a task agreement issued under an existing cooperative agreement. In other words, this is not a brand-new, open competition designed to solicit new project ideas; it is a continuation action meant to keep established ecological research and field study activities moving forward under a pre-existing partnership framework.
This opportunity uses a Cooperative Agreement as the funding instrument, indicating a collaborative arrangement where the National Park Service anticipates substantial involvement in the project rather than simply issuing a hands-off grant. The posting is also explicitly labeled "FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY" and presented as a Notice of Intent to award, which signals that the agency planned to make the award to a specific organization rather than accepting applications broadly. The intended recipient named in the eligibility information is the Student Conservation Association, and the eligible applicant category is listed as "Others," with the clarifying text pointing to that single-organization intent.
Financially, the opportunity lists an estimated total funding amount of $27,600, with no stated award ceiling or floor (both are shown as 0, which typically means the agency did not set formal bounds in the notice beyond the estimated total). A cost sharing or matching requirement is indicated as "Yes," meaning the recipient would be expected to contribute an eligible non-federal share in some form (such as cash, in-kind services, or other allowable contributions), consistent with the terms of the underlying cooperative agreement and applicable federal assistance rules.
Key administrative details show that the opportunity was posted on April 12, 2012, with an original and current closing date of April 13, 2012, and an archive date of April 14, 2012. That extremely short window is consistent with a notice-of-intent posting rather than a competitive funding round. The listing includes CFDA number 15.931 (Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations), aligning the effort with conservation-oriented work conducted with youth or service organizations and partners.
