Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service funding opportunity titled "National Park Service Cattle Ranching and Agricultural Practices and Updated National Register of Historic Places Nomination PH 2" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIP13AC01407) is a discretionary cooperative agreement notice tied to natural resources work within the National Park System. The effort is being issued under the National Park Service Desert Southwest Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) framework, which is a partnership mechanism the NPS uses to carry out research, technical assistance, and related projects through a cooperative network of universities and other partners.
This notice is not a typical open competition. Instead, it is a notice of intent to make a noncompetitive, single-source award, explicitly citing Department of the Interior policy (505 Departmental Manual 2.12C) as the basis for issuing the award without competition. The announcement states that it will result in a task agreement award under the CESU, meaning the work will be implemented through a specific, project-level agreement rather than a broad call for multiple applicants. Consistent with that approach, the eligibility section clarifies that this is not a request for applications and that the intended recipient is Texas State University.
Financially, the opportunity lists an estimated total funding amount of $35,530, with an expected number of awards of one. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement. The listing shows no stated award ceiling or floor (both shown as 0), which typically indicates that the specific amount is governed by the task agreement terms rather than a competitive range. The program is associated with CFDA number 15.945, Cooperative Research and Training Programs - Resources of the National Park System.
In terms of timing, the opportunity was posted and created on September 11, 2013, with an original and current closing date of September 16, 2013, and an archive date of October 16, 2013. The short window aligns with the fact that this is an intent-to-award notice for a designated recipient rather than an open solicitation seeking proposals from the public.
For questions or issues accessing the full announcement, the listed point of contact is Kelly Adams, Grants Management Specialist, at 303-969-2392.
