Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service funding opportunity titled "National Park Service Murie Ranch Furnishings Report for Grand Teton National Park" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIR1242110030) is a discretionary grant action intended to support work in the natural resources and National Park System resource management arena. It is structured as a cooperative agreement and was issued under the National Park Service Rocky Mountain Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU), specifically as a task agreement award. The opportunity was posted and created on September 13, 2011, with an original and final closing date of September 17, 2011, and it was later archived on October 17, 2011. The National Park Service anticipated making one award under this announcement, with an estimated total funding amount of $30,000. No cost sharing or matching was required, and the award ceiling and floor were both listed as $0, which commonly indicates the funding amount is predetermined or handled through the associated task agreement documentation rather than stated as a competed range.
This announcement is explicitly not a request for applications and is not a competitive funding opportunity. Instead, it serves as a formal notice of intent to make a noncompetitive, single-source award. The eligibility category is listed broadly as "Others," but the eligibility statement clarifies that this is a single-source award to Colorado State University. The noncompetitive nature of the action is justified under Department of the Interior policy, cited as 505 Departmental Manual 2.12C, which governs circumstances under which an agency can proceed without full and open competition. In practical terms, that means the National Park Service already selected the recipient organization in advance, likely because the work aligns with the CESU network purpose and the recipient has a unique capability, existing relationship, or specific expertise needed for the Murie Ranch furnishings report work.
The opportunity is associated with CFDA number 15.945, which covers Cooperative Research and Training Programs tied to resources of the National Park System. While the short description does not spell out the full scope of work, the title indicates the funded project involves producing a furnishings report for the Murie Ranch within Grand Teton National Park. Furnishings reports in the National Park Service context typically document historic interior furnishings and objects, assess their historical significance and integrity, and provide guidance for preservation, interpretation, and appropriate treatment or replacement. These reports are often used to support compliance, collections management, historic furnishing plans, and interpretive accuracy for historically significant sites.
