Opportunity Summary:

The "Exotic and Invasive Plant Removal" opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIPWRP12AC10345) is a National Park Service discretionary grant issued as a cooperative agreement under the Natural Resources funding activity category. The project focuses on Cabrillo National Monument in San Diego, California, with the central goal of partnering to remove exotic and invasive plant species from the park and to prepare affected areas for revegetation and eventual replanting with native vegetation. In practical terms, the work supported by this award is aimed at restoring habitat conditions by reducing or eliminating non-native plant pressures and improving site conditions so native plants can be successfully re-established.

The program anticipates making a single award, with total estimated funding of $25,000. The award is structured with an award floor and ceiling both set at $25,000, meaning the intended award amount is fixed at that level rather than offered as a range. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement stated for applicants, so the project is not described as requiring the recipient to contribute additional non-federal funds as a condition of the award.

Eligibility for this particular opportunity is limited to state governments. The listing is associated with CFDA number 15.931, titled "Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations," which generally points to conservation and stewardship work and may imply that projects could involve conservation crews or youth-focused conservation activities, depending on how the cooperative agreement is implemented and what partners are involved. Because the instrument type is a cooperative agreement, the National Park Service is likely to have substantial involvement in the project beyond simply providing funds, such as coordination, technical guidance, or joint planning related to invasive species removal methods and site preparation for native revegetation.

Timing-wise, the opportunity was posted and created on December 22, 2011, with an original and current closing date of December 28, 2011, reflecting a short application window. The archive date is January 27, 2012, indicating the announcement is no longer active. Applicants seeking full details, instructions, and any required forms were directed to Grants.gov via the provided additional information link.

For questions or issues accessing the full announcement, the designated contact was Tekla Vines, Contract Specialist with the National Park Service, reachable by phone at 707-951-4872 or by email at teklavines@nps.gov.
