Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS) funding opportunity titled "National Park Service Catalog Archeology Project Archives for ten parks in the Intermountain Region" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIJ8100100174) is a discretionary cooperative agreement announcement related to natural resources work, specifically focused on archeological archives. The total estimated funding amount associated with the effort is $35,777, and there is no cost sharing or matching requirement. The opportunity was posted on July 20, 2010, with an original and current closing date of July 25, 2010, and it was later archived on August 24, 2010.
This notice is not a typical open grant competition and is explicitly not a request for applications. Instead, it functions as a Notice of Intent for a single-source, noncompetitive award to the University of Arizona. The NPS indicates that the award will be issued as a task agreement under the National Park Service Colorado Plateau Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU). In practical terms, that means the work is being carried out under an existing cooperative framework used by the Department of the Interior and its partners to support mission-related research, technical assistance, and similar activities.
The announcement also references that the decision to make a noncompetitive award is being made in accordance with DOI policy, specifically "DOI 505 DM 2.12C," which is the Department of the Interior authority cited for limiting competition under certain justified circumstances. Because it is a single-source action, the "ExpectedAwards" field is listed as 0 in the source data, reflecting that this posting is informational rather than an open solicitation where multiple awards might result.
Eligibility is therefore effectively limited by design. While the eligibility field notes "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," the eligibility information clarifies the intent: the funding announcement is not open for general applicants and is directed to a specific recipient, the University of Arizona. Anyone looking for application instructions or selection criteria would not find a standard application process here, since the purpose is to document the government intent to make this award through the CESU mechanism.
For access issues related to the full announcement materials, the listed point of contact is Jenny Sommer, Agreements Specialist, at (303) 969-2392.
