Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS) posted a discretionary funding opportunity titled "Long Term Collaborative Multipurpose Agreement with The George Wright Society" under Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIR2340090056. The award is structured as a cooperative agreement in the natural resources activity category, and it was designed as a single, non-competitive (single-source) action specifically intended for The George Wright Society, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit located in Hancock, Michigan. In practical terms, the synopsis functions as a public notice of NPS intent to make an award without competing it among multiple applicants, with the expectation of awarding one agreement.
The core purpose of the agreement is to support and strengthen professional exchange across the many disciplines and organizations involved in protecting and understanding natural, cultural, recreational, and related public lands, including places such as national parks and national monuments. The work described focuses on co-sponsoring professional conferences, meetings, workshops, and other forums that bring together practitioners, researchers, educators, and partners. These gatherings are meant to encourage interdisciplinary and inter-organizational dialogue, helping participants share research, management practices, and collaborative approaches relevant to resource stewardship and public land management.
A central emphasis within the described effort is improving inclusion and participation in these professional forums. The opportunity explicitly highlights promoting and facilitating attendance and participation by Native Americans and by minority students and faculty. This indicates that part of the cooperative effort is expected to reduce barriers to participation and increase representation in professional spaces where policy, science, and on-the-ground management practices are discussed and shaped.
The anticipated period of performance is five years, reflecting a longer-term partnership rather than a short, one-time project. Financially, the opportunity lists an estimated total funding amount of $100,000, with an award ceiling of $100,000 and an award floor of $0. No cost sharing or matching requirement is stated, meaning the recipient would not be required to contribute non-federal matching funds as a condition of the award.
Eligibility is listed as nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), although the announcement also makes clear that this specific action is intended as a single-source award to The George Wright Society. Key timing details show the opportunity was posted and created on August 4, 2009, with an original and current closing date of August 14, 2009, and it was archived on September 13, 2009. For access issues or additional information, the contact provided is Sybil Winfield, Contracting Officer at the National Park Service, reachable by phone at 303-969-2076.
