Opportunity Summary:
The funding opportunity titled "National Park Service Development of a Multi Network/Park Climate Web Interface and Technical Assistance to the Greater Yellowstone Network Monitoring Program" is a National Park Service (NPS) discretionary grant action focused on natural resource management, specifically climate-related data access and technical support for park monitoring. It is structured as a cooperative agreement, meaning the recipient would be expected to work in close coordination with NPS staff rather than simply receiving funds to carry out an independent project. The work is intended to support the Greater Yellowstone Network Monitoring Program and to produce a web-based climate interface that can be used across multiple park networks and/or individual parks, improving how climate information is organized, displayed, and applied in monitoring and management contexts.
This notice is not an open competition and is explicitly not a request for applications. Instead, it is a notice of intent to make a single-source, noncompetitive award to the Sonoran Institute. The noncompetitive approach is being made under the authority referenced as Department of the Interior 505 Departmental Manual 2.12C, and the award is to be issued through the National Park Service Desert Southwest Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) via a task agreement. In practical terms, that means the NPS had already identified the intended partner and was formally posting the opportunity as part of required transparency and administrative procedures, rather than inviting proposals from other organizations.
Financially, the announcement lists an estimated total funding amount of $100,744, with an expected number of awards of one. No cost sharing or matching requirement is indicated, so the recipient would not be required to provide non-federal funds as a condition of the award. The listing includes CFDA number 15.945, tied to Cooperative Research and Training Programs and resources of the National Park System, which aligns with the applied, science-support nature of building tools and providing assistance that directly benefits NPS monitoring and stewardship activities.
Timing details show the opportunity was posted on July 13, 2011, with an original and current closing date of July 18, 2011, and an archive date of August 17, 2011. Because this was not a competitive solicitation, the short window functions more like an administrative posting period than a true application deadline. Eligibility is labeled broadly in the system as "Others," but the eligibility note clarifies that this is a single-source award to the Sonoran Institute, so other entities were not eligible to apply under this announcement.
