Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "National Park Service Catalog Archives at Dinosaur National Monument" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIJ8100100260) is a National Park Service discretionary funding action being handled through a cooperative agreement under the Natural Resources activity area. It is being issued under the National Park Service Colorado Plateau Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) framework, and the purpose of the notice is to announce the agency's intent to make a task agreement award connected to cataloging or archival work at Dinosaur National Monument. The listing makes clear that the action is administrative and project-specific, centered on supporting National Park Service needs related to archives and cataloging rather than opening a broader competition for outside proposals.
A key point is that this announcement is not a request for applications and is not competitive. It is a notice of intent for a single-source award, made in accordance with DOI policy (cited as DOI 505 DM 2.12C), which is the internal authority the Department of the Interior uses for certain noncompetitive financial assistance actions. The agency explicitly states that the award is intended for the University of Arizona, meaning other organizations are not being solicited to apply and no applicant pool is being evaluated through a standard competitive process. Although the "Eligible Applicants" field is broadly labeled as "Others (see text...)," the eligibility clarification in the description removes ambiguity by identifying the University of Arizona as the sole recipient for this specific award.
In terms of funding, the estimated total amount associated with the action is $44,309, with no cost sharing or matching requirement. The posted date and creation date are both July 13, 2010, and the original and current closing dates are July 18, 2010, reflecting a short posting window that is typical for notices of intent tied to noncompetitive agreements rather than open solicitations. The archive date is August 17, 2010. The opportunity lists expected awards as 0, which commonly appears on notices that function more as an announcement of intent and administrative posting than a forecast of competitive awards. The award ceiling and floor are both shown as 0, another common artifact of entries where the award amount is described elsewhere (here, through the estimated total funding figure) and the posting is not structured like a standard competitive funding announcement.
