Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service Intergovernmental Internship Cooperative Youth Partnership Project 2015 (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIP15AC00121) is a National Park Service discretionary funding action intended to be issued as a cooperative agreement under the Colorado Plateau Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU). The opportunity is categorized under Natural Resources and is associated with CFDA 15.945, which covers cooperative research and training programs related to resources of the National Park System. The notice explains that the award will be made through a task agreement under the CESU framework, meaning the work is expected to be carried out collaboratively between the NPS and the recipient rather than as a standard grant with minimal federal involvement.
This announcement is not an open call for proposals and it is explicitly not a request for applications. Instead, it serves as a notice of intent to make a single-source, noncompetitive award, citing Department of the Interior policy (505 Departmental Manual 2.12C) as the basis for using a noncompetitive process. The only anticipated recipient named in the notice is Southern Utah University, and the listing indicates there is only one expected award.
The estimated total funding amount for the project is $138,068. The posting indicates no cost sharing or matching requirement. The award ceiling and floor are both listed as $0, which commonly appears in listings where a fixed ceiling is not formally stated in the public synopsis even though an estimated total funding amount is provided. Key dates show the opportunity was posted and created on December 19, 2014, with an original and current closing date of December 23, 2014, and the record archived on January 22, 2015. Because it is a single-source notice rather than a competitive solicitation, the short window between posting and closing is consistent with a public notice function rather than a period for applicants to prepare submissions.
For further details, the announcement directs readers to an attached document (not included in the text you provided). Anyone having trouble accessing the full announcement is instructed to contact Kelly Adams, Grants Management Specialist, at 303-969-2303.
