Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service grant opportunity titled "Developing and Integrating Landscape Scale Context into Natural Resource Condition Assessments" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIP14AC00499) is a discretionary funding action administered by the National Park Service under its Rocky Mountain Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU). The purpose of the effort is to support work that strengthens Natural Resource Condition Assessments by bringing in broader, landscape-scale context, meaning the project is aimed at helping parks evaluate resource conditions not only within park boundaries but also in relation to surrounding ecological patterns, stressors, and regional environmental drivers that influence those resources.
This opportunity is structured as a cooperative agreement within the Natural Resources funding activity category, and it is associated with CFDA 15.945, Cooperative Research and Training Programs - Resources of the National Park System. The notice makes clear that it is not an open competition and not a request for applications. Instead, it is a notice of intent to make a single-source, noncompetitive award to Utah State University. The noncompetitive approach is being used under the Department of the Interior authority described in 505 Departmental Manual 2.12C, and the award will be issued as a task agreement under the CESU framework rather than through a general public solicitation.
In terms of funding, the estimated total amount is $84,700, with one expected award. The announcement lists no cost sharing or matching requirement, and it does not specify an award ceiling or floor (both are shown as $0, which typically indicates that the program is not using those particular fields to define limits for this action). Key administrative dates show that the opportunity was posted on May 1, 2014, and had a very short window, with the original and current closing date both listed as May 5, 2014, and an archive date of June 4, 2014. Because it is a single-source notice rather than a competitive call, those dates function more as a public notice period than a true application deadline.
Eligibility is effectively limited to the named recipient. While the eligible applicant category is broadly labeled "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," the eligibility information explicitly states that the announcement is not a request for applications and that the award is intended for Utah State University. Anyone looking for more details was directed to the attached announcement, and for access issues the listed point of contact is Kelly Adams, Grants Management Specialist, at 303-969-2303.
