Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service Herbarium Imaging Project 5 at Grand Canyon Parashant National Monument is a National Park Service discretionary funding action focused on natural resources work, specifically tied to herbarium imaging activities associated with the monument. The opportunity is issued as a cooperative agreement under the National Park Service Colorado Plateau Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU), meaning the work is intended to be carried out through a formal partnership framework that supports cooperative research and related technical efforts for National Park System resource needs. The program context aligns with CFDA 15.945, Cooperative Research and Training Programs - Resources of the National Park System.
This notice is not a competitive grant solicitation and not a request for applications. Instead, it is a notice of intent to make a noncompetitive (single-source) award, citing Department of the Interior policy at 505 Departmental Manual 2.12C as the authority for proceeding without competition. The announcement explicitly states that the award is intended for Southern Utah University, which is listed as the sole eligible recipient for this action. As a result, other organizations are not being invited to apply, and the usual competitive application process does not apply here.
The National Park Service expected to make one award under this action, with an estimated total funding amount of $25,166. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not expected to provide a non-federal match as a condition of receiving the funds. The listing shows no stated award ceiling or floor (both recorded as 0), which typically indicates that the specific project amount is defined by the task agreement terms rather than being expressed as a range in the public notice.
Key administrative dates show that the opportunity was posted and created on September 8, 2011, with an original and current closing date of September 12, 2011, and an archive date of October 12, 2011. The short window between posting and closing is consistent with a notice-of-intent, single-source action where the purpose is public transparency rather than collecting proposals from multiple applicants.
For access issues with the full announcement materials, the listed point of contact is Jenny Sommer, Agreements Specialist, reachable by phone at 303-969-2392.
