Opportunity Summary:
The "National Park Service Improve Archives Accountability and Access for Colorado National Monument" opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIJ8100100268) is a National Park Service discretionary funding action structured as a cooperative agreement under the Colorado Plateau Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU). The purpose is to support work that improves the accountability, organization, and accessibility of archival materials associated with Colorado National Monument, which typically involves tasks like arranging and describing collections, improving cataloging and inventory controls, and strengthening public or staff access to archival records so they can be found, managed, and used more effectively.
This announcement is a notice of intent rather than an open call for proposals. It explicitly states that it is not a request for applications and that the award will be made as a single-source, noncompetitive action to the University of Arizona. The noncompetitive approach is justified under Department of the Interior policy (DOI 505 DM 2.12C) and is being implemented through a task agreement under the CESU mechanism, which is commonly used by the National Park Service to partner with universities and other research or technical institutions for project-based work.
Key administrative details show the posting and creation date as July 20, 2010, with an original and current closing date of July 25, 2010, and an archive date of August 24, 2010. The estimated total funding amount is $34,285. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement. The award ceiling and floor are both listed as $0, which is often how systems display entries when a fixed amount is anticipated or when the platform is not being used to solicit bids; in this case, the estimated total funding amount provides the meaningful funding figure.
The opportunity is categorized under Natural Resources, even though the project focus is archives, reflecting how parks often classify collection management and related stewardship activities within broader natural and cultural resource management frameworks. The listing shows "ExpectedAwards: 0," which aligns with the fact that it is a notice of intent for a specific task agreement rather than a competitive process expecting multiple awards.
For questions or difficulty accessing the full announcement, the listed contact is Jenny Sommer, Agreements Specialist, reachable by phone at 303-969-2392.
