Opportunity Summary:
The funding opportunity titled "National Park Service Application of strategic wildfire and fuel treatment analysis to national program decision support" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIP14AC01057) is a National Park Service discretionary grant action structured as a cooperative agreement in the natural resources program area. The work is intended to support the National Park Service by applying strategic wildfire and fuels treatment analysis to strengthen decision support at the national program level, meaning the project is aimed at informing broader NPS planning and prioritization rather than serving only a single park or local unit.
This notice is explicitly not a competitive solicitation. Instead, it is a notice of intent to make a single, noncompetitive award under the National Park Service Colorado Plateau Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU), using a task agreement mechanism. The announcement cites the Department of the Interior's noncompetitive award authority under 505 Departmental Manual 2.12C, which is typically used when a single source is justified and the award is being made through an established cooperative research partnership framework such as a CESU. In practical terms, that means the NPS had already identified the partner and the general scope of work prior to posting the notice, and the posting serves transparency and documentation purposes rather than inviting proposals from the broader public.
The intended recipient is Colorado State University, and the eligibility section reinforces this by stating the announcement is not a request for applications and that it is a single source award to CSU. The opportunity lists one expected award with an estimated total funding amount of $200,000 and indicates there is no cost sharing or matching requirement. The listing shows an award ceiling and floor of $0, which commonly appears in notices where the funding amount is described elsewhere (here, as the estimated total funding) or where the posting is not structured as an open competition with a defined range for applicants.
Key administrative details include the posting and creation date of June 25, 2014, and a very short window to the closing date of June 29, 2014, with an archive date of July 29, 2014. The short open period is consistent with a notice of intent for a noncompetitive, single-source action, since the goal is not to collect applications but to document the planned award. The program is associated with CFDA number 15.945, which covers Cooperative Research and Training Programs for the resources of the National Park System.
