Opportunity Summary:
The George Wright Society Biennial Conference on Protected Areas and Cultural Sites grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOI WASO R2306103507) is a discretionary National Park Service (NPS) funding announcement focused on supporting the planning and development of the George Wright Society's biennial conferences on parks, protected areas, and cultural sites. The NPS indicates it intends to move forward through a cooperative agreement, which generally means NPS expects to play an active role alongside the recipient during the project rather than simply providing funds with minimal involvement. The activity category is listed under Natural Resources, reflecting the conference's focus on resource stewardship, protected-area management, and related cultural site issues.
This notice is explicitly described as a single-source announcement. In practical terms, that signals the NPS planned to enter into an agreement specifically with the George Wright Society rather than running a broad, open competition among many applicants. The expected number of awards is one, reinforcing that the intent was to support a single recipient for this work. Even though the eligible applicant category is stated as nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), the single-source language makes clear that the planned recipient was the George Wright Society for participation in conference planning and development over a five-year period.
Funding details show an estimated total program amount of $200,000, with an award ceiling of $250,000 and an award floor of $0. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement. The opportunity was posted on February 22, 2010, with an original and current closing date of March 1, 2010, and an archive date of March 31, 2010. The CFDA number is listed as 00.000 (Not Elsewhere Classified), which is sometimes used for notices that do not map cleanly to a standard CFDA program listing.
For applicants or stakeholders who needed help accessing the full announcement, the listed point of contact was Sybil Winfield, Contracting Officer, reachable by phone at 303-969-2076 or by email at sybilwinfield@nps.gov.
