Opportunity Summary:
The funding opportunity titled "National Park Service Assess Condition and Conduct Architectural Documentation at 2 VT Pueblos" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIP14AC00928) is a National Park Service discretionary grant action structured as a cooperative agreement under CFDA 15.945, which covers Cooperative Research and Training Programs and Resources of the National Park System. The purpose is narrowly focused on work to assess condition and carry out architectural documentation at two VT pueblos, which typically implies systematic evaluation of the current physical state of these cultural resources and the preparation of formal documentation products that can support preservation planning, management decisions, and future research. The opportunity sits within the Natural Resources activity category, reflecting the NPS practice of managing cultural resources as part of broader park resource stewardship, even when the work is specifically architectural or archeological in nature.
This posting is not an open competition. It is a Notice of Intent (NOI) to make a noncompetitive, single-source award under the National Park Service Colorado Plateau Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU). The announcement cites Department of the Interior policy at 505 Departmental Manual 2.12C as the basis for proceeding noncompetitively, which is the internal authority the department uses to justify and document situations where competition is not pursued. In practical terms, that means the NPS already identified the partner it intends to work with, and the public notice functions mainly as transparency and documentation rather than an invitation for new applicants.
Eligibility is correspondingly limited. While the listing uses a general category ("Others") and points to additional eligibility text, the key statement is that this is a single-source award to Northern Arizona University. So even though the listing appears in the same systems used for competitive grants, it is explicitly not a request for applications and is not designed to accept proposals from other entities.
In terms of funding, the estimated total amount is $78,793, with an expected number of awards of one. The notice lists no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning the recipient is not expected to provide a formal match as a condition of the award. The award ceiling and floor are both shown as zero, which commonly occurs in system-generated summaries for actions where a single fixed amount is anticipated or where the posting is informational rather than structured around a range for competing applicants.
The timeline is very short because, again, it is not a competitive process. The opportunity was posted and created on June 13, 2014, with an original and current closing date of June 17, 2014, and it was archived on July 17, 2014. Short windows like this are typical for noncompetitive notices because the intent is to meet public posting requirements rather than to provide time for proposal development.
For anyone needing the full announcement but having trouble accessing it electronically, the point of contact listed is Kelly Adams, Grants Management Specialist, at 303-969-2303.
