Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service grant opportunity titled "Assessing the Ecological Condition of the Reservoirs of the Aspinall unit, Curecanti National Recreation Area" is a discretionary funding action intended to support natural resource work focused on evaluating the ecological health of reservoirs within the Aspinall Unit at Curecanti National Recreation Area. The funding mechanism is a cooperative agreement issued through the National Park Service Desert Southwest Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU), structured as a task agreement. In practical terms, this means the project is meant to be carried out in collaboration with the National Park Service under the CESU partnership framework, with the work likely involving shared project coordination and technical involvement consistent with cooperative agreement rules.
This notice is explicitly not a request for applications and is being issued as a notice of intent for a noncompetitive, single-source award under Department of the Interior policy (DOI 505 DM 2.12C). The announcement states that the intended recipient is the University of Arizona, meaning other organizations are not being invited to apply and no competitive selection process is planned. The eligibility field reflects this by listing "Others (see text...)" while the accompanying eligibility information clarifies that the award is single-source to the University of Arizona.
The opportunity was posted and created on August 5, 2010, with an original and current closing date of August 10, 2010, and an archive date of September 9, 2010. The short window between posting and closing aligns with the document being a notice of intent rather than an open competition. The expected number of awards is one, and the estimated total funding amount is $50,000. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not expected to provide matching funds as a condition of the award. The award ceiling and floor are listed as $0, which often appears in notices where the total estimated amount is provided but formal ceiling/floor fields were not populated in the system record.
Administratively, the opportunity is categorized under "Natural Resources" and uses a cooperative agreement funding instrument type, which generally indicates the agency anticipates substantial involvement during project performance, such as coordination on study design, data needs, access, and management application of results. The CFDA number is listed as 00.000 "Not Elsewhere Classified," which is sometimes used for postings that do not map cleanly to a single standard assistance listing or where the system entry is generic.
For access issues or questions about obtaining the full announcement details, the listed point of contact is William Tallbull, Grant/Agreement Specialist, reachable by phone at 303-969-2891.
