Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service grant opportunity titled "Historic Housing District Historic Structures Report, Bryce Canyon National Park, Utah" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIP15AC01082) is a discretionary funding action that supports work related to natural resources and the resources of the National Park System under CFDA 15.945, Cooperative Research and Training Programs. The intent of the project is to produce a Historic Structures Report (HSR) for the Historic Housing District at Bryce Canyon National Park in Utah. An HSR is the National Park Service's standard planning and preservation document used to guide the long-term treatment of historic buildings, typically pulling together a building's history, existing conditions, and recommendations for preservation, rehabilitation, repair, and future management in a way that aligns with federal preservation requirements and NPS policy.
This notice is not an open, competitive funding announcement. Instead, it is explicitly a notice of intent to make a noncompetitive (single-source) award under the National Park Service Colorado Plateau Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU). The announcement cites Department of the Interior policy (505 Departmental Manual 2.12C) as the authority for issuing the award without competition. In practical terms, that means the agency had already identified the intended recipient and was publicly posting the notice as part of required transparency procedures, rather than inviting proposals from multiple applicants.
The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates that the National Park Service expects to have substantial involvement in the project as it is carried out, such as coordinating research priorities, reviewing draft deliverables, providing access to park records or facilities, and collaborating on technical decisions. The opportunity anticipated a single award, with an estimated total funding amount of $39,999. The listing shows no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning the recipient would not be expected to provide non-federal match as a condition of the award. The award ceiling and floor are both listed as $0, which is commonly seen in notices of intent or noncompetitive postings where the key funding amount is communicated elsewhere (here, as the estimated total funding) and the posting is not structured for a range of competitive submissions.
Eligibility is effectively limited by design. While the system field for eligible applicants is broad ("Others"), the announcement makes clear that this is a single-source award to the University of Texas at San Antonio. Because it is not a request for applications, other institutions or organizations were not being invited to apply during the posting window. The notice was posted on June 25, 2015, with an original and current closing date of July 4, 2015, and it was later archived on August 3, 2015. Those dates function more as administrative milestones for the public notice than as a true application deadline, since applications were not being solicited.
For parties seeking more details but unable to access the full announcement, the listed point of contact is Kelly Adams, Grants Management Specialist, reachable at 303-969-2303. The notice also references an attached announcement for additional information, suggesting that specifics such as the project scope, deliverables, schedule, reporting expectations, and the nature of NPS involvement would be documented in that attachment and in the resulting CESU task agreement.
