Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service opportunity titled "Conduct Comprehensive Archeological Remote Sensing Documentation of Civil War Era Second Fort" is a discretionary funding action intended to support natural and cultural resource work within the National Park System, specifically focused on documenting a Civil War era "Second Fort" using archeological remote sensing methods. The award is structured as a cooperative agreement, meaning the project is expected to involve substantial involvement or collaboration between the National Park Service and the recipient rather than operating as a typical grant with minimal agency participation. The underlying purpose is to produce comprehensive documentation using non-invasive or minimally invasive remote sensing techniques, which are commonly used in archeology to identify, map, and interpret subsurface or obscured cultural features without extensive excavation.
This notice is not an open call for proposals and is explicitly not a request for applications. Instead, it is a notice of intent to make a single-source, noncompetitive award under the National Park Service Rocky Mountain Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU). The announcement states that the action will result in a task agreement award through the CESU mechanism and that it is being issued in accordance with the Department of the Interior’s policy cited as 505 Departmental Manual 2.12C, which is used to justify and document circumstances where a noncompetitive award is appropriate. In practical terms, this means the National Park Service has already identified the intended recipient and is proceeding with a directed award rather than evaluating competing applications.
The only expected award is one, and the identified recipient is the University of Wyoming. Eligibility is therefore limited in practice to that institution for this action. The estimated total funding amount is $69,846, with no cost-sharing or matching requirement, indicating the recipient is not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the award. The opportunity is associated with CFDA number 15.945, which covers Cooperative Research and Training Programs related to resources of the National Park System, aligning the project with applied research, documentation, and technical work that supports NPS stewardship responsibilities.
Key administrative details include the funding opportunity number NPS NOIP13AC00475 and a posting date of June 3, 2013. The original and current closing date listed is June 10, 2013, and the archive date is July 10, 2013. Although a closing date is provided, the announcement emphasizes that it is not soliciting applications, so the date functions more as an administrative timeline for the notice rather than a deadline for competitive submission. Award ceiling and floor are both listed as zero, which typically reflects that the funding amount is defined through the task agreement rather than through a competitive range in the announcement itself.
For parties who need help obtaining the full announcement materials, the listed contact is Kelly Adams, Grants Management Specialist, reachable by phone at 303-969-2392.
