Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service funding opportunity titled "National Park Service Collecting the Intermountain Regions Greenhouse Gas Emissions" (Funding Opportunity Number: NPS NOIJ1247100003) is a discretionary cooperative agreement focused on natural resources work, specifically the collection of greenhouse gas emissions data for National Park Service units in the Intermountain Region (IMR). The activity is structured as a task agreement issued under the National Park Service Rocky Mountain Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU), which is a partnership mechanism NPS uses to collaborate with universities and other partners on applied research and resource management needs.
This notice is not a traditional open, competitive grant solicitation. Instead, it is explicitly a notice of intent for a noncompetitive, single-source award made under Department of the Interior policy (cited as DOI 505 DM 2.12C). The announcement states that it is not a request for applications and clarifies that the only intended recipient is Montana State University. The practical meaning of that language is that NPS had already identified Montana State University as the partner for this work and published the notice to document the agency's intent to make the award without competing it.
The core purpose of the project is to develop or compile a greenhouse gas emissions inventory for parks in the Intermountain Region. While the announcement is brief and does not list individual deliverables in detail, a greenhouse gas emissions inventory in this context generally involves gathering source data on emissions associated with park operations and activities, then organizing those data into an inventory that can be used for reporting, planning, and emissions reduction strategies. The description specifies that interns from Montana State University will work directly with the National Park Service to collect the inventory information, suggesting an emphasis on hands-on data gathering and close coordination with park staff.
Financially, the opportunity lists an estimated total funding amount of $27,339, with an expected number of awards of one. No cost sharing or matching requirement is indicated, meaning the recipient is not expected to provide a formal match as a condition of the award. The award ceiling and floor are both listed as $0 in the summary fields, which commonly occurs in archived postings or notices of intent where the exact award parameters may be handled through the task agreement documents rather than the public-facing synopsis.
Key administrative details include a posted date and creation date of April 30, 2010, an original and current closing date of May 4, 2010, and an archive date of June 3, 2010. The eligibility section reinforces that eligible applicants are not broadly solicited, because this is a single-source award to Montana State University. For questions or assistance accessing the full announcement, the listed contact is Jenny Sommer, Agreements Specialist, at 303-969-2392.
