Opportunity Summary:
The funding opportunity titled "National Park Service An Assessment of Current Fire Conditions in Selected Plant Communities in Zion National Park" is a National Park Service (NPS) discretionary grant action focused on natural resource management, specifically evaluating present-day fire conditions affecting certain plant communities within Zion National Park. The project is intended to support NPS land and resource managers by producing an assessment that helps clarify what current fire-related conditions look like on the ground in targeted vegetation types, which can inform future planning and management decisions related to wildfire, prescribed fire, fuels, and ecological restoration.
This notice is not a traditional competitive grant solicitation. Instead, it is a formal Notice of Intent to make a noncompetitive (single-source) award under the Department of the Interior (DOI) policy citation 505 DM 2.12C. The award is to be issued as a cooperative agreement, meaning the National Park Service anticipates having substantial involvement in the project as it is carried out, rather than simply providing funds with minimal agency engagement. The award will be made through the National Park Service Colorado Plateau Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU), which is a cooperative framework used by NPS and partner institutions to accomplish research, technical assistance, and resource management studies in the Colorado Plateau region.
Only one award is expected under this announcement, and the eligible recipient has already been identified. The announcement explicitly states it is a single-source award to the University of Arizona, and it is not a request for applications from other organizations. In other words, other prospective applicants are not being invited to apply because the agency has already determined the partner institution for this specific task agreement.
Financially, the opportunity lists an estimated total funding amount of $49,921. No cost sharing or matching funds are required. The listing shows an award ceiling and floor of $0, which commonly appears in older postings or notices of intent where the specific amount is described elsewhere (here, the estimated total funding provides the meaningful figure). The opportunity was posted on August 5, 2010, with an original and current closing date of August 10, 2010, and it was archived on September 9, 2010. The CFDA number is shown as 00.000 ("Not Elsewhere Classified"), reflecting that it is categorized outside a standard CFDA program listing in the posting.
For administrative and access issues, the listed point of contact is William Tallbull, Grant/Agreement Specialist, reachable by phone at 303-969-2891, particularly for assistance if the full announcement materials cannot be accessed electronically.
