Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service grant opportunity titled "National Park Service Continued Documentation of Archaeological Sites Impacted by Illegal Border Activities and Wildfires" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIP14AC00999) is a discretionary funding action to support ongoing work documenting archaeological sites that have been affected by illegal border-related activities and by wildfires. The funding sits within the Natural Resources activity area and is connected to CFDA 15.945, which covers cooperative research and training programs related to resources of the National Park System. In practical terms, the purpose is to continue collecting and recording information about cultural and archaeological resources that may be damaged or disturbed, so the National Park Service can better understand impacts, track site condition over time, and inform resource protection and management decisions.
This opportunity is structured as a cooperative agreement rather than a standard grant, meaning the National Park Service expects to have substantial involvement in the work as it is carried out. The award is intended to be made through a task agreement under the National Park Service Colorado Plateau Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU), a partnership framework that allows federal agencies and partner institutions to collaborate on research, technical assistance, and resource management projects. The announcement is explicitly a notice of intent to make a noncompetitive award under Department of the Interior policy (505 Departmental Manual 2.12C), which is commonly used when an agency is justifying a single-source selection rather than running an open competition.
A key point is that this announcement is not a request for applications and is not open for general competition. The eligibility section clarifies that it is a single-source award to the University of New Mexico, meaning no other applicants are being solicited or considered for this specific funding action. The listing shows an expected number of awards of one, with an estimated total funding amount of $142,664. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not expected to provide matching funds as a condition of the award. The notice was posted and created on June 20, 2014, with an original and current closing date of June 24, 2014, and it was archived on July 24, 2014. The award floor and ceiling are both listed as zero, which typically indicates the system entry did not specify those limits even though an estimated total funding amount is provided.
For further details or for anyone who cannot access the full announcement electronically, the listed point of contact is Kelly Adams, Grants Management Specialist, reachable by phone at 303-969-2303.
