Opportunity Summary:
This notice describes a National Park Service (NPS) intent to award a cooperative agreement for a project titled "Field Sampling and Data Analysis for Coastal National Park Units." It is explicitly a notice of intent to award and not a request for applications, meaning the NPS is not soliciting proposals from the public and does not plan to run a competitive application process for this work. Instead, the announcement serves as public documentation that the NPS intends to proceed with a specific partner and a specific agreement arrangement.
The project falls under the environment and natural resources activity area and is tied to the CFDA listing 15.945, which covers cooperative research and training programs related to resources of the National Park System. The work itself is summarized at a high level by the title: it involves field sampling and subsequent data analysis intended to support coastal national park units. While the notice does not lay out the technical scope in detail in the text provided, it indicates that complete details are contained in an attachment available under the "Full Announcement" section referenced in the original posting.
The funding mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which typically implies substantial involvement by the federal agency in the project compared with a standard grant. The NPS indicates it will execute Task Agreement P12AC10806 under Cooperative Agreement H4503090700, naming the University of Rhode Island as the cooperator. The announcement also notes that this will occur without full and open competition, reinforcing that the recipient has effectively been pre-identified for this specific effort rather than selected through an open solicitation.
Financially, the opportunity is listed with an estimated total funding amount of $58,890, and both the award ceiling and award floor are also $58,890, which signals an expected single fixed award amount rather than a range. The notice anticipates one award. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not expected to provide matching funds as a condition of the award.
In terms of timing and status, the notice was posted on June 29, 2012, with an original and current closing date of July 4, 2012, and it was archived on July 5, 2012. These dates align with the purpose of the posting as a public notice rather than an open competition with an extended application period.
Eligibility is listed as public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, consistent with the named partner being a public university. For access issues related to the full announcement materials, the notice provides a point of contact: Dawn Mach, Contract Specialist, at 215-597-0056.
