Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service funding opportunity titled "National Park Service Archeological Resurvey of Navajo National Monument" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIP15AC01079) is a discretionary cooperative agreement intended to support natural resource-related work within the National Park System, specifically an archeological resurvey effort at Navajo National Monument. The award is structured as a task agreement under the National Park Service Colorado Plateau Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU), which is a partnership mechanism the NPS uses to collaborate with qualified research and academic institutions on projects tied to resource management, research, and training needs.
This notice is not a traditional, open competition grant solicitation. Instead, it is published as a notice of intent for a single-source, noncompetitive award, authorized under Department of the Interior policy (505 Departmental Manual 2.12C). In practical terms, that means the NPS already identified the intended recipient and is using the public posting mainly to document and disclose the planned award rather than to invite new applications. The announcement explicitly states that it is not a request for applications and that eligibility is limited because it is being issued as a single source action.
The intended recipient for this cooperative agreement is the Museum of Northern Arizona. The posting indicates an expectation of one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $70,048. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not expected to provide a mandatory financial match as a condition of the award. The award ceiling and floor are listed as $0, which typically reflects that the funding amount is determined through the specific task agreement terms rather than being offered as a range for competitive applicants.
Administratively, the opportunity was posted on June 25, 2015, with an original and current closing date of July 4, 2015, and an archive date of August 3, 2015. It is associated with CFDA number 15.945, which corresponds to Cooperative Research and Training Programs related to resources of the National Park System. The activity category is listed as Natural Resources, aligning the project with the NPS mission of documenting, understanding, and managing cultural and natural resources under its stewardship, in this case through archeological fieldwork and documentation connected to Navajo National Monument.
For parties seeking additional documentation, the notice points readers to an attached announcement for more detail and provides a contact for access issues: Kelly Adams, Grants Management Specialist, at 303-969-2303.
