Opportunity Summary:

The National Park Service Adaptive Restoration and Community Stewardship Project (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIP14AC00890) is a National Park Service (NPS) discretionary funding action planned as a cooperative agreement in the natural resources category. It is being issued as a notice of intent under the National Park Service Colorado Plateau Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU), meaning the work would be implemented through a CESU task agreement mechanism that supports cooperative research, technical assistance, and training tied to public land and resource management needs.

This notice is explicitly not a request for applications and is not a competitive solicitation. Instead, the NPS is documenting its intent to make a single-source, noncompetitive award consistent with Department of the Interior policy (505 Departmental Manual 2.12C). The announcement indicates that the sole intended recipient is Northern Arizona University, and the eligibility section reflects this by listing the applicant category as "Others" with clarification that the action is directed to a specific institution rather than open to a broader pool of applicants.

In funding terms, the opportunity lists an estimated total funding amount of $100,905 with an expected number of awards of one. Both the award ceiling and floor are shown as $0, which typically signals that the formal dollar range was not configured in the system fields even though a total estimated amount is provided elsewhere in the record. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement stated for the recipient. The program is associated with CFDA number 15.945, described as Cooperative Research and Training Programs related to the resources of the National Park System, aligning with the CESU model of collaborative applied research and capacity-building in support of NPS priorities.

The timing information shows the opportunity was posted on June 10, 2014, with an original and current closing date of June 14, 2014, and an archive date of July 14, 2014. Because this is a notice of intent for a noncompetitive task agreement rather than an open call, these dates function more as an administrative posting window than a true application deadline for competing applicants.

For additional details or if the full announcement materials are difficult to access electronically, the listed point of contact is Kelly Adams, Grants Management Specialist, reachable by phone at 303-969-2303.
