Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service La Bajada Archeological Survey grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIJ1496107034) is a discretionary funding action administered by the National Park Service (NPS) and structured as a cooperative agreement under the Colorado Plateau Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU). The activity category is Natural Resources, and the announcement indicates the work will be carried out through a task agreement mechanism associated with the CESU program. In practical terms, this means the project is intended to support a specific archeological survey effort at or related to La Bajada, with NPS partnering through the CESU framework, which is commonly used to coordinate applied research and resource management projects with academic institutions and other partners.
This notice is not an open competition and is explicitly described as a notice of intent for a noncompetitive (single-source) award, issued in accordance with Department of the Interior policy cited as DOI 505 DM 2.12C. The eligibility section makes the intent clear: it is not a request for applications and is designated as a single-source award to the University of New Mexico. While the general eligible applicant field is listed as "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," the clarification provided in the announcement removes ambiguity by naming the sole intended recipient. As a result, other organizations should not expect an opportunity to apply under this posting, since the purpose is to publicly document the government’s intention to make a directed award rather than to solicit proposals.
The anticipated award profile is straightforward. NPS expects to make one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $40,000. No cost sharing or matching is required. The listing shows award ceiling and floor as $0, which typically signals that specific minimum/maximum ranges were not set in the public-facing data fields even though an estimated total amount is provided. The CFDA number is shown as 00.000 (Not Elsewhere Classified), which generally indicates the funding does not map neatly to a standard CFDA program listing in the dataset used for the posting.
Key timing details reflect that this was a short-window notice. The opportunity was posted on August 5, 2010, with an original and current closing date of August 10, 2010, and it was archived on September 9, 2010. Because the posting is a notice of intent rather than a competitive solicitation, the closing date functions more as an administrative timeline for the notice period than as a deadline for proposal submission by multiple applicants.
