Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service funding opportunity titled "A Special Study of Navajo, Hopi and Zuni Ethnographic Perspectives of Hubbell Trading Post" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIP13AC00830) is a discretionary cooperative agreement intended to support a natural resources-related research effort focused on ethnographic perspectives connected to Hubbell Trading Post. The core purpose is to carry out a special study that gathers, documents, and interprets Navajo, Hopi, and Zuni viewpoints and cultural knowledge relevant to the site, helping the National Park Service better understand and manage the park unit's resources and meanings in ways that reflect Indigenous perspectives and lived cultural relationships to place.
This opportunity is structured as a task agreement under the National Park Service Colorado Plateau Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU), which is a framework used by federal agencies to partner with qualified research and technical organizations for projects involving cooperative research, training, and resource stewardship. The announcement is explicitly a notice of intent to make a noncompetitive award, citing Department of the Interior policy (505 Departmental Manual 2.12C) as the basis for a single-source approach rather than an open competition. In practical terms, that means the National Park Service is announcing that it plans to fund a specific partner for this specific project instead of soliciting proposals from the general public.
The posting makes clear that it is not a request for applications and that no competitive application process will occur. Eligibility is therefore effectively limited by design: the award is intended as a single-source cooperative agreement to the Museum of Northern Arizona. The listing notes that the "Eligible Applicants" field shows "Others," with additional eligibility details clarifying that the announcement is not open for applicants because it is a single-source award.
Financially, the opportunity lists an estimated total funding amount of $45,700, with no cost sharing or matching requirement. The award ceiling and floor are both shown as $0, which is common in notices of intent or administrative postings where the total estimated amount is provided but the system fields for ceiling/floor are not used in a typical competitive way. The National Park Service expects to make one award. The associated CFDA number is 15.945, described as Cooperative Research and Training Programs and Resources of the National Park System, aligning the project with NPS-supported research and resource-related cooperative work.
The timeline in the notice reflects a short administrative posting window rather than a true application period: it was posted and created on July 10, 2013, with an original and current closing date of July 15, 2013, and an archive date of August 14, 2013. Because the announcement is a notice of intent for a noncompetitive award, these dates primarily indicate when the notice was publicly available rather than a deadline for submitting proposals.
For those needing access to the full announcement materials, the contact listed is Kelly Adams, Grants Management Specialist, reachable by phone at 303-969-2392. This contact is specifically provided for assistance in obtaining the full announcement electronically, which is consistent with a formal notice process where supporting documentation may be attached or referenced outside the summary listing.
