Opportunity Summary:
The Great Plains Fire Science Exchange (GPFE) funding opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number P14AC00871) is a National Park Service (NPS) notice announcing the agency's intent to provide funding through a cooperative agreement for specific, pre-identified project activities related to fire science and natural resource stewardship in the Great Plains region. It is important to note that this announcement is not a request for applications or proposals. Instead, it serves as a formal public notice that NPS plans to make an award without competition.
GPFE is described as a partnership effort involving the National Park Service, the Joint Fire Science Program (JFSP), Missouri State University, and Kansas State University. The exchange itself originated from a competitive call for proposals issued by the National Interagency Fire Council (NIFC) in 2010, and the project was selected for funding through that earlier competitive process. NIFC initially supported the exchange with two years of funding beginning in June 2012, and the announcement notes that exchanges like GPFE may be eligible for renewal every two years as long as performance remains satisfactory.
From an administrative standpoint, the opportunity is categorized as mandatory and uses a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument, which typically indicates substantial federal involvement or collaboration during the performance of the work. The activity falls under the Natural Resources category, with the associated CFDA listing of 15.944 (Natural Resource Stewardship). The opportunity anticipates a single award, with an estimated total funding amount of $1,000,000 and an award ceiling of $1,000,000 (with no stated minimum award floor beyond $0). There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement identified in the notice.
Although the eligible applicant category is listed as public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, the notice makes clear that the funding action is non-competitive, meaning it is not open for general submission by interested parties. Key dates provided include a posted and creation date of June 9, 2014, an original and current closing date of June 16, 2014, and an archive date of July 16, 2014. For access issues or questions about the full announcement, the listed contact is Julie Hendricks, Lead Grants Management Specialist, reachable by phone at 402-661-1662.
