Opportunity Summary:
The Monitoring Chinquapin Water System Improvement Project, Mono Tribe (Funding Opportunity Number NPSNOIYOSE100042) is a National Park Service discretionary funding opportunity set up as a cooperative agreement within the Environment funding activity category. It is essentially a notice of intent to award a task agreement under an existing umbrella cooperative agreement with the North Fork Rancheria, Mono Tribe. The core purpose is to support collaborative monitoring and related professional services tied to the Chinquapin Water System Improvements Project in Yosemite National Park, with a strong emphasis on protecting and preserving cultural and natural resources that hold cultural and religious significance to the Mono Tribe.
The work is associated with NAICS code 541990 (All Other Professional, Scientific and Technical Services), which signals that the services expected are specialized technical and professional support rather than construction or direct infrastructure installation. In practical terms, this kind of scope typically involves on-the-ground monitoring during or around project activities, coordination with park staff and project teams, and implementing measures intended to avoid, minimize, or mitigate impacts to culturally sensitive areas, traditional use locations, and other resources important to the Tribe. The wording makes clear that the project is not just environmental compliance in the generic sense, but a collaborative effort centered on Tribal cultural and religious concerns connected to the improvement work on the water system at Chinquapin within Yosemite.
Funding for the opportunity is fixed and small-scale: the estimated total funding is $57,000, and both the award floor and award ceiling are also $57,000, indicating a single anticipated award at that exact amount. Only one award is expected. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not expected to contribute non-federal matching funds as a condition of receiving the award.
Eligibility is limited to federally recognized Native American tribal governments, aligning with the stated intent to issue the task agreement specifically with the North Fork Rancheria, Mono Tribe under the pre-existing cooperative framework. The opportunity was posted and created on September 17, 2010, with an original and current closing date of September 22, 2010, and it was archived on October 22, 2010. Additional information was available through Grants.gov, and the point of contact listed for access or announcement issues was Tekla Vines, Contract Specialist, at 707-951-4872 or teklavines@nps.gov.
