Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service funding opportunity titled "National Park Service Data Recovery for Mitigation of Site 48YR128, Yellowstone National Park, Phase 1, Excavations" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIJ1580100302) is a discretionary cooperative agreement focused on natural resources work, specifically archaeological data recovery and mitigation excavations at site 48YR128 in Yellowstone National Park. The effort is described as Phase 1 excavations, which typically implies an initial round of controlled fieldwork intended to recover information from a cultural site that may be affected by ongoing or planned management actions. The award is being issued through a task agreement under the National Park Service Rocky Mountain Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU), which is a partnership framework the Department of the Interior uses to collaborate with universities and other partners on research and technical projects.
This notice is not an open competition and it is not requesting applications from the general public. Instead, it is a notice of intent to make a noncompetitive, single-source award to the University of Wyoming. The justification cited is "IAW DOI 505 DM 2.12C," referring to Department of the Interior policy that allows noncompetitive awards under certain conditions. Because the recipient is predetermined, the listing functions more as a public transparency posting than as a traditional grant solicitation where multiple applicants submit proposals.
In terms of funding details, the opportunity anticipated one award with an estimated total funding amount of $106,044. The posting lists no cost sharing or matching requirement. The award ceiling and floor are both shown as $0, which is common in notices of intent or administrative postings where standard competitive parameters do not apply, or where the exact structuring is handled within the accompanying agreement documentation rather than the public synopsis.
Key dates indicate the notice was posted on June 10, 2010, with an original and current closing date of June 15, 2010, and an archive date of July 15, 2010. Those short timeframes are consistent with a notice-of-intent announcement rather than an open solicitation, since there is no expectation of collecting and reviewing proposals from multiple outside parties. The CFDA number is listed as 00.000 (Not Elsewhere Classified), a placeholder sometimes used when a specific CFDA program number is not being emphasized for the action or when it is categorized in a general way in the posting system.
For administrative or access questions, the contact listed is Jenny Sommer, Agreements Specialist, at (303) 969-2392, with the note that she can help if there are difficulties accessing the full announcement electronically.
