Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service Historical Restoration of the Little Buckaroo Barn funding opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIP15AC01145) is a discretionary, noncompetitive notice of intent issued by the National Park Service (NPS). Rather than being an open call for proposals, it serves as formal notification that NPS plans to make a single award through a task agreement under the Rocky Mountain Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU). The work is associated with natural resources and the stewardship of resources within the National Park System, and it is tied to CFDA 15.945, which covers Cooperative Research and Training Programs related to National Park System resources.
The award instrument is a cooperative agreement, meaning NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the project as it is carried out, which is typical for CESU-based task agreements where federal and partner organizations coordinate closely on scope, methods, and deliverables. The opportunity anticipates one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $40,768. No cost sharing or matching requirement is listed, and both the award ceiling and floor are shown as $0 in the source record, which generally indicates that specific award limits were not expressed in the synopsis even though an estimated total amount was provided.
Eligibility is explicitly limited because this is not a request for applications. The synopsis states it is a single-source award to Colorado State University, and the eligible applicant category is effectively restricted accordingly (with the listing noting "Others" and directing readers to the eligibility text for clarification). The noncompetitive nature of the action is justified under Department of the Interior policy, specifically 505 Departmental Manual 2.12C, which outlines circumstances under which noncompetitive awards can be made.
Key dates show the notice was posted and created on July 2, 2015, with an original and current closing date of July 11, 2015, and an archive date of August 10, 2015. Because this is a notice of intent for a predetermined recipient rather than a competitive opportunity, the closing date functions more as an administrative marker for the public notice period than as a deadline for proposal submission. Anyone needing access to the full announcement was directed to contact Kelly Adams, Grants Management Specialist, at 303-969-2303.
