Opportunity Summary:
The funding opportunity titled "National Park Service CCM Stabilize Historic Structures at OX Ranch" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIP14AC00939) is a National Park Service (NPS) discretionary grant action structured as a cooperative agreement under the Natural Resources funding activity category. The purpose of the project, as reflected in the title and brief description, is to support work connected to stabilizing historic structures at OX Ranch, which suggests a preservation-focused effort intended to protect or maintain historically significant built resources associated with the National Park System or NPS-managed priorities.
This announcement is not a typical open competitive grant solicitation. Instead, it is a formal notice of intent to make a noncompetitive, single-source award. The NPS indicates the award will be made through a task agreement under the Desert Southwest Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU). CESUs are collaborative networks used by federal agencies to partner with universities, nonprofits, and other organizations for research, technical assistance, and project implementation. Here, the CESU mechanism is being used to execute a specific task agreement tied to the stabilization work at OX Ranch.
Because it is a noncompetitive action, the agency explicitly states that it is not requesting applications from the general public. Eligibility is therefore effectively limited to the intended recipient identified by the NPS. The announcement names Cornerstones Community Partnerships as the single-source awardee, meaning the agency has already selected this organization to carry out the work and is publishing the notice to meet internal policy and transparency requirements. The noncompetitive justification is referenced as being in accordance with Department of the Interior policy, specifically 505 Departmental Manual 2.12C, which governs circumstances under which noncompetitive financial assistance awards may be made.
From a funding standpoint, the opportunity anticipates one award with an estimated total funding amount of $63,200. The posting shows an award ceiling and floor listed as "1," which appears to be a data entry placeholder rather than a meaningful dollar limit; the practical funding figure to rely on is the estimated total funding amount. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not expected to provide a non-federal match as a condition of the award.
The timing information reflects the administrative nature of the notice. It was posted on June 16, 2014, created the same day, and carried a very short window with an original and current closing date of June 20, 2014, followed by an archive date of July 20, 2014. That compressed timeline is consistent with a notice of intent for a predetermined single-source award rather than an open call designed to allow applicants time to develop and submit proposals.
The opportunity is associated with CFDA number 15.945, which covers Cooperative Research and Training Programs related to Resources of the National Park System. This aligns with the CESU model and the preservation and resource stewardship theme implied by stabilizing historic structures. For access issues or administrative questions about obtaining the full announcement, the listed point of contact is Kelly Adams, Grants Management Specialist, reachable by phone at 303-969-2303.
