Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service funding opportunity titled "Ethnographic Overview and Assessment of Native American Resources in Missouri National Recreational River" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIJ6068100016) is a discretionary, natural-resources focused cooperative agreement intended to support an ethnographic overview and assessment related to Native American resources associated with the Missouri National Recreational River. The project is framed as a task agreement to be issued under the National Park Service Desert Southwest Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU), which is a cooperative research and technical assistance network used by federal agencies to partner with academic institutions and other collaborators on resource-management needs.
This posting is not an open competition and is explicitly described as a notice of intent to make a noncompetitive, single-source award under Department of the Interior policy (referenced as DOI 505 DM 2.12C). In practical terms, that means the agency is announcing that it plans to fund a specific partner rather than soliciting proposals from the general public. The announcement states that it is a single source award to the University of Arizona, and the "Eligible Applicants" field is therefore informational rather than an invitation for other organizations to apply.
The opportunity anticipates one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $89,996. There is no stated cost-sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not expected to provide a financial match as a condition of the award. The posting lists an award ceiling and floor of $0, which is commonly seen in notices of intent or archived listings where final amounts and ranges are handled within the internal agreement documentation rather than presented as competitive funding limits.
Key dates included a posted and created date of September 14, 2010, with an original and current closing date of September 18, 2010, and an archive date of October 18, 2010. Because this is not a request for applications, the "closing date" functions more like an administrative timeline marker for the public notice rather than a deadline for proposal submission.
For access issues or questions about the announcement materials, the listed contact is Jenny Sommer, Agreements Specialist, reachable by phone at 303-969-2392.
