Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service NTIR Database opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPR NOIR7700111026) is a discretionary funding action that the National Park Service (NPS) posted on July 6, 2011 under the Natural Resources activity category. The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, and it is tied to CFDA 15.935, National Trails System Projects. The announcement indicates an estimated total funding amount of $60,000, with one expected award. No cost sharing or matching is required, and the listing shows no stated award ceiling or floor (both are recorded as $0, which typically means the public posting is not structured around a competitive range and is instead documenting an administrative action).
This notice is not a request for applications and is not a competitive grant competition. Instead, it is a notice of intent to make a single-source, noncompetitive award through a task agreement issued under an existing Master Cooperative Agreement (H7700090029) between the National Park Service and the University of Utah. In practical terms, the NPS is signaling that the work will be assigned to that partner under the master agreement framework, rather than opening the project up for other applicants to submit proposals. The authority cited for using a noncompetitive approach is Department of the Interior policy at 505 Departmental Manual 2.12C, which governs circumstances where noncompetitive financial assistance can be appropriate.
Because it is a single-source action, the eligibility field effectively limits participation to the University of Utah under the referenced master cooperative agreement. The posting includes very short turnaround dates (posted July 6, 2011 with a closing date of July 10, 2011, and later archived August 9, 2011), which is consistent with an informational posting rather than a true application window. The announcement also notes that additional details are contained in an attached document, suggesting that the public synopsis is mainly meant to document the intended award and provide transparency about the noncompetitive decision.
For questions or for help accessing the full announcement materials, the point of contact listed is Tom Forsyth, Contracting Officer, reachable by phone at 303-969-2796.
