Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS) posted a discretionary funding notice titled "Mapping and Architectural Documentation of Three Cliff Dwelling Sites, Walnut Canyon NM" (Funding Opportunity Number: NPS NOIR747012010). The project falls under the Natural Resources activity category and would be carried out through a cooperative agreement. The stated purpose is to support mapping and architectural documentation work at three cliff dwelling sites within Walnut Canyon National Monument, which suggests a focus on recording site layout, construction features, and related cultural resource details in a systematic way that can inform research, preservation, and long-term management of these nationally significant archeological resources.
This notice is not an open, competitive grant solicitation. Instead, it is a notice of intent to make a single, noncompetitive award issued under the National Park Service Colorado Plateau Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) program. The announcement cites the Department of the Interior (DOI) policy basis for a noncompetitive action (505 Departmental Manual 2.12C). In practical terms, that means the NPS had already identified the intended recipient and was publishing the notice to document and communicate the planned award rather than to invite proposals from the broader public.
Only one award was anticipated, with an estimated total funding amount of $49,053. The posting lists no cost sharing or matching requirement, indicating the recipient would not be required to contribute a defined non-federal share as a condition of the award. The award ceiling and floor are listed as $0, which commonly appears in records where the system fields were not used to express the expected amount beyond the separate estimated total funding figure.
Eligibility is limited and explicitly clarified in the announcement: it is a single-source award to Archaeology Southwest. The listing shows the eligible applicant category as "Others" with a note to see additional eligibility information, reinforcing that the opportunity was not intended for general applicant pools such as universities broadly, nonprofits broadly, or state/local governments, unless specifically named. The CFDA number associated with the opportunity is 15.945, Cooperative Research and Training Programs - Resources of the National Park System, aligning the effort with NPS programs that support cooperative research, documentation, and training tied to park resources.
Key dates in the record include a posted date and creation date of June 26, 2012, with an original and current closing date of July 2, 2012, and an archive date of August 1, 2012. Because this was not a request for applications, the closing date functions more like the end of the public notice window rather than a deadline for proposal submission by multiple applicants.
For access issues or questions about obtaining the full announcement, the notice provides a point of contact: Kelly Adams, Grants Management Specialist, at 303-969-2392, specifically for help if the announcement could not be accessed electronically.
