Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS) grant opportunity titled "Archeological Resources Inventory and Evaluation at Fort Union National Monument, Year 3" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIJ72301000A6) is a discretionary funding action that will be issued as a cooperative agreement under the NPS Colorado Plateau Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU). The project falls under the Natural Resources activity category and is intended to support continued archeological work at Fort Union National Monument through a combined inventory and assessment effort.
This announcement is not an open competition and is not a request for applications. Instead, it is a formal notice of intent to make a single-source, noncompetitive award consistent with Department of the Interior policy (cited as DOI 505 DM 2.12C). The NPS anticipates making one award, and the only eligible recipient identified for this action is the University of New Mexico. In practical terms, this means other organizations cannot apply for this funding because the award is being directed to a specific partner institution for this phase of work.
The purpose of the project is for the University of New Mexico to work collaboratively with the NPS to carry out an integrated archeological inventory and evaluation at Fort Union National Monument. While the notice does not provide methodological details, the phrase "combined archeological inventory and assessment" generally indicates field and/or archival efforts to locate, document, and evaluate archeological resources, with an emphasis on understanding what resources exist, their condition, and their management significance. Being labeled "Year 3" signals that this is part of an ongoing multi-year effort rather than a standalone, first-time study, implying continuity in data collection, analysis, and resource management support.
The estimated total funding amount listed for this action is $30,000. No cost sharing or matching funds are required. The award ceiling and floor are both shown as $0, which typically indicates that a specific fixed ceiling/floor was not entered into the public summary fields even though an estimated total amount is provided. The opportunity was posted and created on April 22, 2010, with an original and current closing date of April 27, 2010, and an archive date of May 27, 2010. Because this is a noncompetitive notice rather than an application-based solicitation, the "closing date" functions more as an administrative timeline marker than a deadline for prospective applicants.
