Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service Fort Monroe National Monument Visitor Survey grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIP14AC00225) is a discretionary funding notice published by the National Park Service on March 20, 2014. It is structured as a cooperative agreement under the Natural Resources funding activity category, and it sits within CFDA 15.945, which covers Cooperative Research and Training Programs related to resources of the National Park System. The purpose, as indicated by the title and program context, is to support work associated with conducting a visitor survey for Fort Monroe National Monument, likely to help the National Park Service better understand visitor characteristics, experiences, satisfaction, and needs in order to inform site planning, interpretation, and management decisions.
This posting is not a typical open competition. It is explicitly a notice of intent to make a noncompetitive, single-source award through the National Park Service Rocky Mountain Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU). The announcement cites Department of the Interior policy (505 Departmental Manual 2.12C) as the basis for using a noncompetitive approach. In practical terms, that means the agency had already identified a specific partner organization for this work and was publicly documenting its intention to proceed with that award rather than requesting proposals from multiple applicants.
Eligibility is therefore limited in effect. While the listing indicates eligible applicants as "Others (see text field...)," the eligibility statement makes the situation clear: this is not a request for applications and is intended as a single-source award to Washington State University. The opportunity anticipated one award (Expected Awards: 1), with an estimated total funding amount of $42,074. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, and the listing shows no specified award ceiling or floor (both listed as 0), which typically signals that the funding level is handled within the associated task agreement rather than through a competitive range.
The opportunity timeline was short because it was not designed to solicit proposals. It was posted and created on March 20, 2014, with an original and current closing date of March 25, 2014, and it was archived on April 24, 2014. Anyone needing access to the full announcement materials was directed to contact the named grants management specialist, Kelly Adams, at 303-969-2303, particularly if they had trouble accessing the announcement electronically.
