Opportunity Summary:
The Fort Pulaski Sustainability Issues opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number P15AS00250) is a National Park Service (NPS), U.S. Department of the Interior, discretionary funding notice describing the government intent to make a single-source cooperative agreement award to the University of Georgia Research Foundation. It falls under the Science and Technology and other Research and Development activity category and is associated with CFDA 15.945, Cooperative Research and Training Programs - Resources of the National Park System. The posting and creation date for the notice is July 28, 2015, and it was archived on August 10, 2015. The estimated total funding and maximum award amount are both listed as $42,000, with no minimum award floor.
The purpose of the project is to support a multidisciplinary collaboration between the University of Georgia Research Foundation and the NPS to refine and strengthen vegetation resource management guidance for Fort Pulaski National Monument. Specifically, the work is intended to go beyond the vegetation and landscape-related recommendations that were originally documented in the park's Cultural Landscape Report, producing more specific, actionable strategy guidance. The emphasis is on reaching a mutually desirable outcome that improves park conditions, which in this context centers on sustainability-related vegetation management needs within a culturally significant landscape.
This opportunity is not an open solicitation and is explicitly not a request for applications. Both the original and current closing date fields state that the announcement is a notice of intent for a single-source award to the University of Georgia Research Foundation, meaning the NPS is providing public notice of an intended noncompetitive award rather than inviting proposals from the broader public. The notice explains that the planned funding would be made without full and open competition under Cooperative Agreement P13AC00443 with the University of Georgia Research Foundation, which is identified as a partner under the Piedmont South Atlantic Coast Cooperative Ecosystems Studies Unit (PSAC). No cost sharing or matching is required.
While the eligibility section lists nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status and also references other eligible entities (as clarified in the full text), the practical takeaway is that this announcement is tied to a specific partner and agreement vehicle and therefore is not structured for competitive applicant participation. For further details or access issues related to the full announcement, the listed NPS contact is Alison Smith, Grants Management Specialist, reachable at 404-507-5754 or AlisonSmith@nps.gov.
