Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service opportunity titled "NPS Sonoran Desert Network Vegetation Mapping" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIJ2123107013) is a discretionary, natural-resources focused cooperative agreement intended to support vegetation mapping work for the Sonoran Desert Network. The award is being made through the National Park Service Desert Southwest Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) as a task agreement, which typically means the work is carried out under an established cooperative framework between the NPS and a partner institution with relevant scientific expertise.
This posting is explicitly a notice of intent rather than an open competition. It is not a request for applications and does not invite proposals from the general public or other organizations. The NPS states that it will be a single-source, noncompetitive award issued in accordance with Department of the Interior policy (DOI 505 DM 2.12C), which is cited as the authority for using a noncompetitive approach in this case. The eligible applicant is effectively predetermined: the University of Arizona is identified as the sole recipient for this award, and only one award is expected.
From a funding standpoint, the estimated total funding amount is $78,822. No cost sharing or matching is required. The listing provides no stated award ceiling or floor (both shown as $0), which generally indicates the specific award amount is controlled by the task agreement terms rather than a competitive range. The program is categorized under CFDA 00.000 (Not Elsewhere Classified), reflecting that it is not aligned to a standard CFDA program in the public listing.
Key dates in the announcement show it was posted and created on June 10, 2010, with an original and current closing date of June 15, 2010, and an archive date of July 15, 2010. Because this is a notice of intent for a noncompetitive, single-source award, the "closing date" functions more like an administrative posting window than a deadline for application submission.
For additional details or if the full announcement is difficult to access electronically, the contact listed is Jenny Sommer, Agreements Specialist, reachable by phone at 303-969-2392.
