Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "Multiyear Cooperative Resource Conservation Program Between the National Park Service and the Grand Canyon River Outfitters Association" is a National Park Service (NPS) discretionary funding notice that signals the agency's intent to make a single, noncompetitive award to a specific organization: the Grand Canyon River Outfitters Association. Rather than being an open solicitation where multiple applicants compete, this announcement functions as a formal notice that the NPS plans to proceed with a direct award under Department of the Interior policy guidance, specifically referenced as Department Manual 505 DM 2. In practical terms, that policy citation is included to document the justification and procedural basis for making a noncompetitive cooperative agreement.
The funding instrument identified is a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates that NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the project compared with a standard grant. The stated activity category is Natural Resources, and the program title indicates a multiyear focus on cooperative resource conservation work connected to Grand Canyon operations. Although the notice does not provide detailed project tasks, the framing strongly suggests a partnership model where the NPS and the river outfitters association coordinate on conservation-related activities that align with park resource protection priorities, likely leveraging the association's on-the-ground presence and operational footprint in the Grand Canyon river corridor.
From an eligibility standpoint, the announcement lists eligible applicants as nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education). Even though the eligibility field is broad in the abstract, the notice is explicitly written as a single-recipient, noncompetitive action directed to the Grand Canyon River Outfitters Association, meaning other eligible nonprofits would not realistically be able to apply for this specific award because it is not being competed.
The opportunity number is NPSNOIGRCA100131. It was posted and created on August 26, 2010, with an original and current closing date of August 30, 2010, and an archive date of August 31, 2010, reflecting a very short public posting window consistent with many noncompetitive intent notices. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient would not be required to provide a specified non-federal match as a condition of the award based on the information provided. The CFDA number is listed as 00.000 "Not Elsewhere Classified," which typically indicates the activity does not neatly fall under a single standard CFDA program listing (or that the listing was entered in a generalized way at the time of posting).
For applicants or members of the public who had trouble accessing the full announcement, the notice provides a point of contact: Gary Jordahl, Chief of the GLCA Contracting Office, with the phone number 928-608-6507. This contact detail suggests the administrative handling of the award is tied to the contracting or agreements office supporting the relevant NPS unit (GLCA commonly refers to Glen Canyon National Recreation Area in NPS contexts, though the project title centers on the Grand Canyon river outfitter community).
