Opportunity Summary:
The funding opportunity titled "National Park Service Climate Change Scenario Planning Four Species of Concern in Southwestern Utah Parks/Monuments" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIJ1242100028) is a National Park Service discretionary funding action focused on natural resources work related to climate change planning. The project is intended to support scenario planning efforts addressing climate change impacts on four species of concern located within, or relevant to, National Park Service units in southwestern Utah, specifically parks and/or national monuments in that region. The underlying purpose is to help park managers anticipate a range of plausible future climate conditions and explore management responses that could reduce risk or improve resilience for sensitive species.
This announcement is not a competitive grant solicitation and is explicitly described as a notice of intent to make a noncompetitive award. In practice, that means the agency is not requesting applications from the general public or from a broad pool of institutions. Instead, the National Park Service states it plans to issue a task agreement under the Rocky Mountain Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) network. CESUs are cooperative partnerships used by federal agencies to streamline collaborative research, technical assistance, and applied science projects with partner institutions. The announcement cites the noncompetitive justification authority as "IAW DOI 505 DM 2.12C," referring to Department of the Interior policy guidance that allows single-source awards under specific circumstances.
The planned funding mechanism is a Cooperative Agreement, which generally indicates substantial involvement by the federal agency during the project compared to a standard grant. The opportunity lists an estimated total funding amount of $75,200 and anticipates a single award. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement identified, meaning the recipient is not expected to contribute a defined percentage of non-federal funds as a condition of the award. The award ceiling and floor are both listed as zero in the source data, which typically reflects that the posting is informational rather than structured as an open competition with variable award sizes; the meaningful dollar figure to rely on here is the estimated total funding.
Eligibility is effectively restricted because this is a single-source action. The notice states directly that it is a single source award to Montana State University. While the eligibility field is labeled in a general way ("Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)"), the narrative clarifies that other applicants are not being solicited and the posting should not be interpreted as an invitation to submit proposals. The timeline in the record shows it was posted on September 14, 2010, with an original and current closing date of September 17, 2010, and an archive date of October 17, 2010, reinforcing that it functioned as a short administrative notice rather than an application window for competitive submissions.
