Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "National Park Service Document, Assess, Stabilize and Repair Cultural Resources Impacted by Border Activities, Part Two - Armenta Ranch and Gachado Line Camp at Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument" is a National Park Service (NPS) funding action focused on protecting and rehabilitating cultural resources at Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument that have been affected by border-related activities. The core purpose is to support work that documents current conditions, assesses damage and preservation needs, and carries out stabilization and repair efforts at two specific historic or cultural sites within the monument: Armenta Ranch and the Gachado Line Camp. The project sits within the broader category of natural and cultural resource stewardship, where the NPS is addressing impacts to sensitive sites in a border region.
This opportunity is structured as a cooperative agreement under the NPS Desert Southwest Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU). In practical terms, that means the NPS is using the CESU mechanism to partner with an academic or research institution for applied fieldwork and technical expertise, with the expectation of substantial involvement by the federal agency in coordinating or guiding the work. The announcement is explicitly a notice of intent for a noncompetitive, single-source award, issued in accordance with Department of the Interior policy cited as DOI 505 DM 2.12C. Rather than inviting multiple applicants to compete, the NPS is signaling that it plans to make one targeted award through a task agreement.
The funding announcement makes clear that it is not a request for applications and therefore should not be read as an open competition. Eligibility is effectively limited by design because the intended recipient is identified as the University of Arizona. The listing also notes "EligibleApplicants: Others (see text...)," but the accompanying eligibility statement clarifies the situation: this is a single source award to the University of Arizona, so other entities are not being solicited for proposals. The expected number of awards is listed as 0, which commonly appears in notices like this because the agency is not running a competitive process with anticipated multiple selections; instead, it is documenting intent to issue a task agreement under an existing cooperative framework.
In terms of funding, the estimated total funding associated with the action is $100,000. The announcement indicates no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning the recipient is not expected to provide a mandatory financial match as a condition of the award. The award ceiling and floor are both shown as 0 in the source data, which often reflects that the posting is informational rather than a typical competitive grant notice where minimum and maximum award sizes are specified for applicants. The assistance listing includes a placeholder CFDA number (00.000, "Not Elsewhere Classified"), which can occur when a funding action does not map cleanly onto a standard CFDA program number or when the posting is primarily serving as an administrative notice.
Key dates show that the opportunity was posted and created on July 29, 2010, with an original and current closing date of August 3, 2010, and an archive date of September 2, 2010. Because this is not an open solicitation, the closing date functions less like a proposal deadline and more like the end of the public notice window tied to the agency's intent to proceed with the noncompetitive award.
