Opportunity Summary:

The National Park Service (NPS) funding opportunity titled "Archeological Inventory of High Priority Lake Powell Accessible Shorelines, Phase II" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIJ1445100047) is a discretionary grant action to support natural resource-related work focused on archeological inventory efforts along accessible shoreline areas at Lake Powell. The project is described as Phase II, which indicates it is a continuation or follow-on effort building on earlier inventory work, likely intended to expand coverage, refine previous findings, and document additional archeological resources in shoreline zones considered high priority for management, protection, or planning. The funding mechanism is a cooperative agreement, meaning the NPS expects substantial involvement in the project rather than simply issuing funds and receiving a final report. The action is structured as a task agreement under the National Park Service Colorado Plateau Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU), a partnership framework used to collaborate with academic and other qualified institutions on research, inventory, and resource management activities in the Colorado Plateau region.

This announcement is explicitly a Notice of Intent for a noncompetitive, single-source award made in accordance with Department of the Interior policy (DOI 505 DM 2.12C). In practical terms, that means the NPS is publishing the notice to document its intent to make an award without a competitive application process, typically because the work requires a specific partner, unique qualifications, continuity with prior phases, or other justification permitted under the cited authority. The agency states directly that the announcement is not a request for applications, so other organizations are not being invited to submit proposals in response. The sole identified recipient is Northern Arizona University, which is named in the eligibility information as the intended awardee. While the opportunity category is listed as discretionary and the activity category as natural resources, it is best understood as a targeted archeological and cultural resource inventory effort carried out under the CESU cooperative framework.

In terms of funding and award structure, the opportunity anticipates one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $120,000. The listing shows no award ceiling and no award floor, which often appears in noncompetitive notices where the total value is provided but standard competitive range fields are left at zero. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not expected to provide non-federal match as a condition of receiving the award. Key dates indicate the opportunity was posted on September 22, 2010, created the same day, and carried an original and current closing date of September 24, 2010, reflecting the short administrative window typical of a notice-of-intent posting rather than an open competition. The record was later archived on July 18, 2012.

For parties seeking more detail, the NPS indicates that additional information is available in an attached announcement, and it provides a point of contact for access issues: Jenny Sommer, Agreements Specialist, at (303) 969-2392. Overall, this is an administrative notice documenting the NPS plan to issue a single cooperative agreement task under the Colorado Plateau CESU to Northern Arizona University to conduct Phase II archeological inventory work on high priority, accessible shoreline areas of Lake Powell, with a total anticipated federal funding level of $120,000 and no matching requirement.
