Opportunity Summary:
The funding opportunity titled "National Park Service Complete an Administrative History" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIP14AC01011) is a discretionary National Park Service (NPS) notice describing the agency's intent to make a single cooperative agreement award to support work categorized under natural resources and the broader mission of researching and documenting resources of the National Park System. The opportunity is tied to CFDA 15.945, which covers Cooperative Research and Training Programs focused on National Park System resources. The estimated total funding amount listed for the effort is $129,694, and the NPS anticipated making one award.
A key point is that this announcement is not a competitive grant solicitation and it is not requesting applications from the public. Instead, it is a notice of intent for a noncompetitive (single-source) award issued through the Colorado Plateau Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU), using a task agreement mechanism. The announcement explicitly cites Department of the Interior policy (505 Departmental Manual 2.12C) as the basis for proceeding as a noncompetitive action, meaning the agency had a documented justification for selecting a single recipient rather than running an open competition.
Eligibility is therefore effectively limited by design: the NPS states the planned recipient is the Museum of Northern Arizona, and the listing notes "Others" only in the sense that eligibility details are clarified in an additional information field, but the notice itself makes clear this is a single-source award. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement associated with the project, which indicates NPS planned to fully fund the agreed scope under the cooperative agreement structure.
In terms of timing, the notice was posted and created on June 23, 2014, with an original and current closing date of June 27, 2014, and an archive date of July 27, 2014. Those short dates are consistent with a notice-of-intent posting for transparency rather than a window for competitive submissions. While the public-facing listing provides only a brief description, the core purpose is to support completion of an administrative history, which typically involves researching, compiling, and documenting the historical development of a park unit or program from an administrative and organizational perspective, often drawing on archival records, policy documents, internal correspondence, and other institutional sources.
For further details or if the full announcement materials were difficult to access electronically, the listed point of contact was Kelly Adams, Grants Management Specialist, reachable by phone at 303-969-2303.
