Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service Level III Energy Audit and Net Zero Analysis for Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIP15AC00955) is a National Park Service discretionary funding action intended to support an in-depth energy assessment and net zero analysis for facilities at Organ Pipe Cactus NM. The activity falls under the Natural Resources funding activity category and is associated with CFDA 15.945, which covers cooperative research and training programs related to resources of the National Park System. The award is structured as a cooperative agreement and is expected to result in one award with an estimated total funding amount of $37,013. No cost sharing or matching is required, and the funding listing does not specify an award ceiling or floor.
This notice is not a traditional competitive grant solicitation. Instead, it is a notice of intent to make a noncompetitive, single-source award under the National Park Service Desert Southwest Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU). The announcement explicitly states that it is not a request for applications and identifies the University of Arizona as the intended recipient. The noncompetitive approach is justified under Department of the Interior policy (505 Departmental Manual 2.12C), which provides the procedural basis for issuing certain awards without full competition when specific criteria are met. In practical terms, that means outside organizations are not being asked to submit proposals, because the agency has already determined the partner organization for this task agreement under the CESU framework.
The timeline shows the opportunity was posted and created on June 11, 2015, with an original and current closing date of June 21, 2015, and an archive date of July 21, 2015. Because it is a notice-of-intent style posting tied to a single-source award, the closing date functions more like an administrative window for the public posting requirement rather than an invitation for competing applications. Any questions about accessing the full announcement materials are directed to Kelly Adams, Grants Management Specialist, at 303-969-2303.
