Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service opportunity titled "National Park Service GIS Technical Support for NPS Intermountain Region Geographic Resources Program" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIJ1242100313) is a discretionary funding action structured as a cooperative agreement in the natural resources category. The purpose is to support GIS-focused technical assistance for the National Park Service Intermountain Region Geographic Resources Program, with the work to be issued as a task agreement under the National Park Service Rocky Mountain Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU). In practical terms, this indicates the project is meant to provide specialized geospatial (GIS) services, expertise, and related support capacity to help NPS programs manage, analyze, and apply geographic data for park and regional needs.
This notice is explicitly not a request for applications and is not being competed. It is a Notice of Intent for a single-source, noncompetitive award made in accordance with DOI policy (cited as DOI 505 DM 2.12C). The announcement states that the recipient is predetermined: Colorado State University. As a result, even though a posted and closing date appear in the listing (posted August 4, 2010, closing August 9, 2010, archived September 8, 2010), those dates function more as public notice milestones rather than an open application window.
The anticipated award profile is one expected award with an estimated total funding amount of $83,000. The listing shows no stated award ceiling or floor (both shown as 0), which commonly appears in notices that are not soliciting competitive proposals or that do not use the typical competitive range format. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement indicated, meaning the recipient is not expected to provide matching funds as a condition of the award.
Eligibility is listed broadly as "Others," but the eligibility narrative clarifies the real intent: this is a single-source award to Colorado State University, rather than a call for proposals from multiple institutions. The CFDA number is shown as 00.000 (Not Elsewhere Classified), which is sometimes used when an action does not map neatly onto a standard CFDA program listing or when the posting is primarily for public notice rather than program solicitation.
For anyone trying to access the full announcement and having trouble retrieving it electronically, the point of contact provided is William Tallbull, Grant/Agreement Specialist, reachable by phone at 303-969-2891.
