Opportunity Summary:

The National Park Service opportunity titled "Collecting the Intermountain Regions Greenhouse Gas Emissions Data" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIJ1247100004) is a discretionary funding action that will be issued as a cooperative agreement focused on natural resource work. The purpose of the project is to support the collection of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions information for National Park Service units in the Intermountain Region (IMR), resulting in a greenhouse gas emissions inventory that can be used by the parks to better understand, track, and manage their emissions.

This notice is explicitly not an open call for proposals. Instead, it is a notice of intent to make a single-source, noncompetitive award under the Department of the Interior authority cited as DOI 505 DM 2.12C. The award will be made through the National Park Service Rocky Mountain Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) via a task agreement mechanism, which is a common way for the NPS to partner with a specific university or research unit for targeted technical support and applied conservation work.

The work will be carried out by interns from the University of Colorado Boulder in collaboration with the National Park Service. Their role is to help gather and compile the source data needed to build a GHG emissions inventory for IMR parks. While the announcement does not detail the exact emissions categories, a greenhouse gas inventory in this context typically involves assembling activity data associated with park operations (for example, fuel and energy use, transportation-related emissions, and other operational sources) and organizing that information into a standardized inventory format that NPS staff can use for analysis and reporting.

In terms of funding, the estimated total amount listed is $25,360, with one expected award. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement. The award ceiling and floor are both listed as zero in the posting, which usually indicates that the financial details are handled through the task agreement terms rather than being structured as a competed grant with set minimums and maximums.

Eligibility is limited because this is a single-source award. The announcement states that the University of Colorado Boulder is the intended recipient, and the "Eligible Applicants" category is effectively restricted by that statement. The posting dates indicate it was posted and created on April 28, 2010, with an original and current closing date of May 3, 2010, and an archive date of June 2, 2010, reinforcing that this was an administrative public notice associated with a planned noncompetitive agreement rather than a period for applicants to submit proposals.

For administrative or access questions about the full announcement, the contact listed is Jenny Sommer, Agreements Specialist, reachable by phone at 303-969-2392.
