Opportunity Summary:

The funding opportunity titled "National Park Service: An Assessment of the National Significance of Cultural Resources for the Walnut Canyon Special Resource Study" is a National Park Service notice of intent to make a noncompetitive cooperative agreement award under the Colorado Plateau Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU). The purpose of the project is to support the Walnut Canyon Special Resource Study by assessing the cultural resources in the Walnut Canyon area and evaluating their national significance, which is a key step in informing federal decision-making about potential resource protection, interpretation, and future management options.

This announcement is categorized as a discretionary opportunity using a Cooperative Agreement as the funding instrument, and it falls under the Natural Resources activity category. The estimated total funding amount listed for the task agreement is $60,052, with no cost-sharing or matching requirement. While many federal grant postings are open competitions, this one is explicitly not a request for applications and does not anticipate multiple awards. Instead, it is a single-source action intended for one specific partner organization: the Museum of Northern Arizona. Because it is a notice of intent for a noncompetitive award, the "ExpectedAwards" field being shown as 0 reflects that the posting is informational rather than a competitive call seeking proposals from the public.

The posting references that the noncompetitive approach is being conducted in accordance with Department of the Interior policy cited as DOI 505 DM 2.12C, and that the award will be executed as a task agreement under the CESU framework. CESUs are cooperative partnerships designed to connect federal agencies with universities and other qualified research and technical organizations to support applied research, technical assistance, and education that benefit public lands and resources. In practical terms, this means the work is expected to be carried out collaboratively, with the partner providing specialized expertise relevant to cultural resources and significance determinations for the special resource study.

Key administrative details show the opportunity was posted and created on August 19, 2010, with an original and current closing date of August 24, 2010, and an archive date of September 23, 2010. The award ceiling and floor are both listed as 0, which is common in notices of intent and task agreement postings where the amount is provided as an estimated total rather than a competitive range. The CFDA number is shown as 00.000 "Not Elsewhere Classified," another indicator that this is a specific internal or partnership-driven action rather than a broad program solicitation with a standard CFDA listing.

For access issues or administrative questions about the full announcement, the listed point of contact is Jenny Sommer, Agreements Specialist, reachable by phone at 303-969-2392.
