Opportunity Summary:

The funding opportunity titled "National Park Service In Depth Historical Research" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIP15AC00706) is a discretionary National Park Service (NPS) cooperative agreement intended to support in-depth historical research tied to National Park Service priorities. It is issued under the Rocky Mountain Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU), which is a partnership mechanism the Department of the Interior uses to collaborate with academic and other partner institutions on research, technical assistance, and related projects that benefit public lands and resources. The activity category is listed under Natural Resources, and the program is associated with CFDA 15.945, "Cooperative Research and Training Programs - Resources of the National Park System."

This notice is not an open call for proposals. Instead, it is a notice of intent to make a noncompetitive, single-source award, explicitly citing Department of the Interior policy (505 Departmental Manual 2.12C) as the basis for awarding without competition. The announcement states that the award will be made as a task agreement under the Rocky Mountain CESU. Eligibility is therefore limited in practice: the opportunity is identified as a single source award to Colorado State University, meaning other applicants are not being solicited or considered through a competitive application process.

From a funding standpoint, the Estimated Total Funding is listed as $50,000, with an Expected Awards count of 1. The posting date and creation date are both May 15, 2015, and the closing date is May 24, 2015, with the opportunity archived on June 23, 2015. The listing shows no cost sharing or matching requirement. The award ceiling and floor are both shown as $0, which commonly appears in notices of intent or noncompetitive postings where a fixed range is not formally stated in the standard fields, even though an estimated total amount is provided elsewhere in the record.

For additional details beyond the summary fields, the notice directs readers to the attached announcement. Anyone unable to access the full announcement electronically is instructed to contact the NPS grants management specialist Kelly Adams at 303-969-2303.
