Opportunity Summary:

The Fort Vancouver National Historic Site Traditional Use Study funding notice (Funding Opportunity Number P15AS00252) is a National Park Service (NPS) Notice of Intent to Award issued by the U.S. Department of the Interior. It is not an open call for proposals and not a request for applications. Instead, it serves as a public notification that NPS planned to fund a specific, predefined project without full and open competition.

The award was structured as a cooperative agreement, categorized under cultural resources (listed as "Other" with the clarification that the activity is cultural resources-related). The project was to be carried out through Task Agreement P15AC01372 under an existing Cooperative Agreement (H8W07110001) with Portland State University. Portland State University was identified as the intended partner because it participates in the Pacific Northwest Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU), a network commonly used by federal agencies to collaborate with universities and other partners on research, technical assistance, and education.

Financially, the notice listed an estimated total funding amount of $88,680 and anticipated a single award. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement. Although the eligibility field mentions public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, this notice did not invite other eligible entities to apply, since the NPS had already identified Portland State University as the recipient under the CESU framework.

In terms of timing and status, the opportunity was posted and created on August 19, 2015, and archived on August 28, 2015.
