Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service Ethnobotany and Climate Change, FY 2014 opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIP14AC00911) is a discretionary funding action issued by the National Park Service (NPS) under a Cooperative Agreement, within the Natural Resources activity category. It was posted and created on June 12, 2014, with an original and current closing date of June 16, 2014, and archived on July 16, 2014. The opportunity lists an estimated total funding amount of $61,111, with no stated award ceiling or floor, and it anticipates making one award.
This notice is not an open call for proposals. Instead, it functions as a notice of intent to make a noncompetitive, single-source award. The announcement explicitly states it is being issued under the National Park Service Desert Southwest Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU), and that the noncompetitive approach is being taken in accordance with Department of the Interior policy cited as 505 Departmental Manual 2.12C. In practical terms, that means NPS already identified the intended partner and is documenting the planned award rather than soliciting applications from the broader public.
Eligibility is therefore limited in this case. Although the general eligibility field references "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," the eligibility information clarifies that this is a single-source award to the University of Arizona. The announcement also indicates there is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not expected to provide a required financial match as a condition of the award.
The opportunity is tied to CFDA number 15.945, which covers Cooperative Research and Training Programs - Resources of the National Park System. That alignment signals the purpose of the agreement: supporting cooperative research and related work that benefits national park resources. Based on the title, the work is focused on ethnobotany and climate change, which generally involves studying relationships between people and plants (including traditional ecological knowledge and culturally significant plant use) and how those relationships, plant communities, and associated cultural practices may be affected by changing climate conditions.
For administrative or access issues related to the full announcement, the listed point of contact is Kelly Adams, Grants Management Specialist, reachable by phone at 303-969-2303, with instructions to contact them if there is difficulty accessing the full announcement electronically.
