Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service opportunity titled "Interpretive Exhibit Development (Touch Screen) at Tonto National Monument Phase II" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIP14AC01065) is a discretionary funding action that will be carried out through a cooperative agreement under the National Park Service Colorado Plateau Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU). The purpose is tied to natural resource and National Park System-related research, training, and interpretive support, with the specific project described as the second phase of developing an interpretive exhibit that uses touch screen technology for Tonto National Monument.
This announcement is not an open, competitive grant solicitation. Instead, it is a formal notice of intent to make a noncompetitive (single-source) award, citing the Department of the Interior's policy authority under 505 Departmental Manual 2.12C. In practical terms, that means the NPS has already identified the intended recipient and is publishing the notice primarily for transparency and recordkeeping rather than to invite new proposals from the public.
The only eligible applicant for this action is Northern Arizona University, which is explicitly named in the eligibility information. The listing shows "Others" under eligible applicants because CESU awards often involve specific partner institutions, but the text clarifies that this particular funding announcement is not requesting applications and will be directed to the single selected entity. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement indicated for the recipient.
Key dates and administrative details show this was posted and created on June 26, 2014, with an original and current closing date of June 30, 2014, and an archive date of July 30, 2014. The estimated total funding amount is $85,992. The award floor and award ceiling are both listed as $0, which is typical in notices of intent or single-source postings where the final award amount is handled in the associated task agreement documentation rather than presented as a competed range.
The funding activity category is listed as Natural Resources, and the CFDA number provided is 15.945, tied to Cooperative Research and Training Programs related to the resources of the National Park System. Anyone needing help accessing the full announcement was directed to contact Katie Gaertner, Procurement Technician, at 303-969-2909, suggesting that full project specifics, deliverables, and technical requirements were likely contained in an attached document rather than fully described in the brief synopsis.
