Opportunity Summary:

The National Park Service (NPS) grant opportunity titled "Learning Center of the American Southwest Website Support" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIR2121120001) is a discretionary funding action that will be issued as a cooperative agreement. It falls under the natural resources funding activity category and is associated with CFDA 15.945, which covers Cooperative Research and Training Programs and Resources of the National Park System. The purpose, as indicated by the title and brief description, is to support website-related work for the Learning Center of the American Southwest, with the work to be carried out through a task agreement under the NPS Colorado Plateau Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU).

This notice is not a typical competitive grant solicitation. Instead, it is explicitly described as a notice of intent for a noncompetitive, single-source award made under the authority of the Department of the Interior policy cited as 505 Departmental Manual 2.12C. In practical terms, that means the agency has already identified the recipient and is not seeking proposals from the general public. The announcement states directly that it is not a request for applications and that the single-source recipient is Northern Arizona University. Because it is noncompetitive and tied to the CESU mechanism, it is structured more like a targeted partnership agreement than an open grant competition.

The opportunity anticipated one award with an estimated total funding amount of $34,000. No cost sharing or matching requirement is listed, indicating that the recipient is not expected to provide a required financial match as a condition of the award. The award ceiling and floor are both shown as $0, which commonly appears in older federal listings when the agency does not use that field to express a maximum or minimum award size, even though the estimated total funding is specified elsewhere.

Key dates show that the opportunity was posted and created on February 15, 2012, with an original and current closing date of February 21, 2012, and an archive date of March 22, 2012. Given the noncompetitive nature and the statement that it is not a request for applications, the closing date functions more as an administrative timeline for public notice rather than a deadline for outside applicants to submit proposals.

For anyone needing access to the full announcement or encountering issues retrieving it electronically, the listed point of contact is William Tallbull, Grant/Agreement Specialist, reachable by phone at 303-969-2891.
