Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "Implement a Science Communication Strategy for the San Francisco Bay Area Network" (Funding Opportunity Number: NPS NOI J2127100238) is a National Park Service discretionary funding announcement focused on natural resources communication. The project is designed to strengthen how science and resource information is shared across the San Francisco Bay Area Network, with an emphasis on turning technical or management-focused information into accessible products for partners, stakeholders, and potentially the general public. The work described centers on practical communications deliverables such as developing resource briefings, producing and maintaining web content, writing monthly updates, and creating podcasts and other media products. In other words, the core purpose is not field research itself, but translating science and resource monitoring information into clear, usable communications that support informed decision-making and public understanding.
The funding instrument is a Cooperative Agreement, which typically implies that the National Park Service expects to have substantial involvement during the period of performance, such as coordinating content priorities, reviewing drafts, aligning messaging with NPS standards, and ensuring the products support network goals. The estimated total funding for the effort is $20,000, with an award ceiling of $20,000 and no required cost share or matching funds. Only one award was expected.
Eligibility is highly restricted. Although the listing includes a broader eligible applicant category, the eligibility information specifies that this action will be a single-source award to the Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy. That means it was not a competitive, open call in practice; it was intended for a specific organization to carry out the work in collaboration with the National Park Service.
Key dates show this opportunity was posted on August 6, 2010, with an original and current closing date of August 10, 2010, and it was archived on September 9, 2010. Because the close date occurred quickly after posting and because it was designated as a single-source award, the posting functions primarily as a formal public notice rather than an invitation for multiple applicants to compete.
