Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "Monitoring Estuarine Condition at Colonial NHP, George Washington Birthplace NM, and Assateague Island NS" (Funding Opportunity Number P13AS00094) is a National Park Service discretionary funding announcement focused on natural resource monitoring within the Northeast Coastal and Barrier Network. The project centers on tracking estuarine ecosystem health at three National Park Service units: Colonial National Historical Park, George Washington Birthplace National Monument, and Assateague Island National Seashore. The core work involves monitoring two closely related resource areas that are widely used as indicators of coastal ecosystem condition: estuarine water quality and seagrass condition.
Funding is provided through a cooperative agreement, indicating that the National Park Service expects to be substantially involved in the project beyond simply issuing funds, such as through collaboration on technical direction, methods, or data management. The opportunity anticipates making a single award, with an exact total estimated funding amount of $49,112. The award ceiling and floor are both listed as $49,112, which effectively means the agency planned one fixed-size award rather than a range of potential award amounts. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not required to contribute additional non-federal funds to qualify.
Eligible applicants are limited to public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, which typically includes state universities, public colleges, and similar publicly governed academic institutions. The opportunity is associated with CFDA number 15.945, Cooperative Research and Training Programs - Resources of the National Park System, reflecting the emphasis on applied research, monitoring, and resource stewardship support for NPS-managed lands and waters.
The announcement was posted and created on June 18, 2013, with an original and current closing date of June 28, 2013, reflecting a short application window. Additional details and the full announcement were made available through Grants.gov (the listing references an additional information link at http://www.grants.gov). For assistance accessing the full announcement, the listed contact is RITA MIHALIK, Financial Assistance Officer, reachable by phone at 301 432 7890 and by email at ritamihalik@nps.gov.
