Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service funding opportunity titled "Geomorphic and Vegetation Mapping in the Riparian Corridors of Canyon de Chelly National Monument Using Airborne High Resolution LiDAR and Multispectral Imagery" is a discretionary natural resources cooperative agreement intended to support detailed mapping work in the riparian (river-adjacent) corridors of Canyon de Chelly National Monument. The project emphasis, as reflected in the title, is on producing geomorphic and vegetation maps using airborne high-resolution LiDAR and multispectral imagery, which are commonly used remote-sensing tools for characterizing landforms, channel and floodplain structure, and vegetation patterns and condition at fine spatial detail.
This announcement is not an open competition and is explicitly not a request for applications. Instead, it is a Notice of Intent to make a single-source, noncompetitive award under the Department of the Interior authority referenced as DOI 505 DM 2.12C. The award will be made through a task agreement under the National Park Service Colorado Plateau Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU), which is a partnership framework the agency uses to carry out research and technical assistance with designated partner institutions. The eligible applicant information makes clear that the intended recipient is Utah State University, meaning other entities are not being solicited to apply.
Only one award is expected. The estimated total funding amount listed for the effort is $77,309, and there is no cost sharing or matching requirement. The posting date and creation date are both May 10, 2011, with an original and current closing date of May 14, 2011, and the opportunity was archived on June 13, 2011. The award ceiling and floor are both shown as $0, which typically indicates that the notice is informational for a predetermined agreement rather than setting competitive award ranges for applicants. The opportunity is identified by Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIR2121110001 and is associated with a CFDA listing shown as 00.000 (Not Elsewhere Classified), reinforcing that it is being handled as a specific, noncompetitive task agreement action rather than a broadly competed assistance program.
