Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "National Park Service Cultural Cyclic Maintenance on Carys Castle" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIP14AC00672) is a National Park Service (NPS) discretionary funding action intended to support ongoing cultural resource maintenance work at Carys Castle. It is structured as a cooperative agreement under the Natural Resources funding activity category, and it is associated with CFDA number 15.945, which covers Cooperative Research and Training Programs related to resources of the National Park System. The announcement describes the action as a task agreement award to be issued under the National Park Service Desert Southwest Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU), a partnership framework NPS uses to carry out applied research, technical assistance, and resource stewardship activities in collaboration with qualified partners.
This notice is not a competitive funding opportunity and is explicitly not a request for applications. Instead, it functions as a formal notice of intent to make a single-source, noncompetitive award. The document cites the Department of the Interior policy at 505 Departmental Manual 2.12C as the basis for using a noncompetitive approach, meaning the agency has determined that a sole-source award is appropriate under its internal acquisition and assistance rules. In practical terms, that means outside organizations are not being invited to submit proposals, and the eligibility section reflects this by indicating that the intended recipient is already identified.
The sole intended recipient named in the source information is Cornerstones Community Partnership, which is the only organization expected to receive an award under this announcement. Consistent with that, the opportunity lists an expected number of awards of one. The estimated total funding amount is $31,859, and there is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient would not be required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the award. The award ceiling and floor are both shown as $0, which often appears in notices of intent or noncompetitive postings where the agency is not setting competitive bounds for applicants, since there is no open application process.
The timeline in the posting indicates it was posted and created on May 20, 2014, with an original and current closing date of May 25, 2014, and an archive date of June 24, 2014. For notices like this, the "closing date" typically serves more as an administrative marker for public posting requirements rather than a deadline for proposal submission, since the announcement is not soliciting applications. The agency listed is the National Park Service, and the point of contact for access issues with the full announcement is Kelly Adams, Grants Management Specialist, reachable by phone at 303-969-2303.
