Opportunity Summary:

This funding opportunity, titled "Multiple ecological studies in and around Bandelier National Monument" (Funding Opportunity Number: NPS NOIBAND100061), is a National Park Service discretionary grant action issued under a Cooperative Agreement funding instrument and categorized under Natural Resources. The notice describes a task agreement that would be issued under an already existing cooperative agreement framework, with the overall purpose of supporting ecological studies at and around Bandelier National Monument. In practical terms, the announcement signals that the Park Service intended to advance specific ecological research and field work needs through an add-on task under a pre-established partnership mechanism, rather than opening a broad new competition for unrelated projects.

The notice is explicitly labeled as being "for informational purposes only" and functions as a Notice of Intent (NOI) to award. It states the National Park Service planned to make the award to the Student Conservation Association (SCA) by issuing a task agreement against the existing cooperative agreement for ecological studies at Bandelier National Monument. Because it is a notice of intent tied to a specific partner and an existing agreement, it is not structured like a typical open competitive solicitation where many applicants submit proposals for review. Instead, it is essentially a public posting that the agency planned to proceed with a defined recipient for a defined scope under an established cooperative arrangement.

The financial details indicate an estimated total funding amount of $26,240, with no stated award ceiling or floor (both listed as 0, which often reflects that the funding amount is determined by the task agreement rather than a typical competitive range). There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning the recipient would not be required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of the award. The opportunity lists one expected award, reinforcing that it was intended to support a single recipient for the described work.

Administratively, the opportunity was posted on May 11, 2010, created the same day, and had an original and current closing date of May 17, 2010. It was archived on May 18, 2010. The short posting window is consistent with a notice of intent where the agency is announcing a planned award action rather than running a full open competition. The CFDA listing is 15.931, "Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations," which aligns with the Student Conservation Association's role in conservation service, field staffing, and youth and early-career engagement in natural resource projects.

For eligibility, the listing shows "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," but the eligibility clarification provided in the announcement indicates the intended recipient was the Student Conservation Association. The agency identified is the National Park Service, and the point of contact for access issues is Rhonda Martinez, Contract Specialist, at 505-988-6042.
