Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS) funding opportunity titled "National Park Service CIC Intergovernmental Internship Cooperative" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIJ1360100128) is a discretionary cooperative agreement issued as a notice of intent under the National Park Service Colorado Plateau Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU). Rather than being an open competition, this announcement documents NPS plans to make a noncompetitive, single-source task agreement award in accordance with Department of the Interior policy (DOI 505 DM 2.12C). In practical terms, the notice is mainly a transparency and documentation step showing that NPS intends to fund a specific partner for a defined purpose, not to solicit proposals from the public.
The core purpose of the award is to support operational and administrative elements of an Intergovernmental Internship Cooperative through collaboration with the Career Internship Corps (CIC). Under this arrangement, NPS expects to provide guidance and leadership, while CIC carries out administrative support functions tied to the internship cooperative. The activity sits within the Natural Resources funding activity category, reflecting NPS interests in building workforce and partner capacity that supports park-related resource work, even though the immediate deliverable described is administrative and operational support for an internship program rather than direct fieldwork.
This opportunity was structured as a single expected award with an estimated total funding amount of $119,043. The listing shows no cost sharing or matching requirement. The award ceiling and floor are both listed as $0, which typically indicates that the public listing is not being used to set competitive ranges or solicit budgets, consistent with the noncompetitive, single-source nature of the action.
Eligibility is effectively closed because the announcement is not a request for applications. The eligibility language specifies that this is a single-source award to Southern Utah University, meaning other organizations are not being invited to apply. The posting date and creation date were May 10, 2010, with an original and current closing date of May 14, 2010, and an archive date of June 13, 2010. Those dates reflect the brief window commonly associated with notices of intent for noncompetitive agreements, where the objective is to provide public notice rather than run a full application period.
