Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service funding opportunity titled "Conserve Prehistoric Textiles and Increase Accessibility to Monument Artifacts" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIP14AC00929) is a discretionary cooperative agreement posted on June 13, 2014, under the federal assistance listing associated with CFDA 15.945, which covers cooperative research and training programs related to resources of the National Park System. The activity area is categorized under natural resources, and the project is structured to produce one expected award with an estimated total funding amount of $55,186. No cost sharing or matching funds are required, and both the award floor and award ceiling are listed as $0, which typically means the specific negotiated award amount is handled within the agreement rather than bounded by published minimums or maximums.
This notice is not a competitive grant solicitation and is explicitly not a request for applications. Instead, it is a notice of intent to make a noncompetitive, single-source award to the Museum of Northern Arizona. The National Park Service indicates the award will be made as a task agreement under the Colorado Plateau Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU), a cooperative framework commonly used by DOI bureaus to partner with specific institutions for research, technical assistance, and resource stewardship work. The noncompetitive nature of the award is justified under Department of the Interior policy cited as 505 Departmental Manual 2.12C, which outlines circumstances where single-source or otherwise noncompetitive financial assistance agreements may be appropriate.
In practical terms, the opportunity is focused on conservation work for prehistoric textile materials and on improving access to monument artifacts, implying activities such as stabilization, preservation treatments, collections care, documentation, and potentially digitization or improved cataloging to support research and public or scholarly accessibility. Because the public posting is a notice of intent rather than an open call, the main purpose of publishing it is transparency about the government’s plan to fund a specific partner for a defined scope of work under the CESU mechanism.
Key dates show a very short public window, with an original and current closing date of June 17, 2014, and an archive date of July 17, 2014. This is consistent with postings that serve as formal notice rather than an application period. Anyone needing the full announcement but unable to access it electronically is directed to contact the listed grants management specialist, Kelly Adams, at 303-969-2303, which is typically provided to support access to official documentation and administrative details.
