Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service Digital Preservation and Virtualization of Fort Brown (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIP13AC01313) is a discretionary funding action by the National Park Service to support work focused on digitally preserving and virtually documenting Fort Brown, a resource of the National Park System. The opportunity is structured as a cooperative agreement under CFDA 15.945 (Cooperative Research and Training Programs - Resources of the National Park System) and is issued through the National Park Service Desert Southwest Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU). The activity category is listed as Natural Resources, reflecting the NPS mission of protecting, studying, and interpreting park resources, including cultural and historic assets that can benefit from digital documentation and long-term preservation strategies.
This announcement is explicitly not a request for applications. Instead, it is a notice of intent to make a single, noncompetitive award, meaning the agency is not soliciting proposals from the public or from a pool of potential applicants. The eligibility section clarifies that the award is intended for one specific recipient, CYARK, under the Department of the Interior competition policy referenced as 505 Departmental Manual 2.12C. In practical terms, this kind of notice is used when the agency has determined that only one organization is uniquely qualified or positioned to perform the work, and the purpose of the posting is primarily to document and communicate that intention publicly rather than to open a competitive grant round.
The total estimated funding associated with the action is $50,000, with one expected award. The listing shows no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not expected to provide a mandatory non-federal match as a condition of the award. The award ceiling and floor are shown as $0 in the source data, which is commonly an artifact of how certain notices are entered into the system when the award amount is fixed or otherwise described outside the standard competitive range format, but the estimated total funding figure indicates the anticipated level of federal support.
The posting timeline is short and consistent with a notice-of-intent format: it was posted and created on September 4, 2013, with an original and current closing date of September 9, 2013, and an archive date of October 9, 2013. Because this is not an open competition, the closing date should be understood less as a deadline for submitting applications and more as the end of the public notice window before proceeding with the planned award action.
