Opportunity Summary:

This grant opportunity is a National Park Service (NPS) notice of intent to make a noncompetitive award for work focused on cultural resource inventory in Pecos National Historical Park, specifically the Canoncito Subunit of the Glorieta Unit. The project is framed as a cultural inventory effort, meaning the work is intended to identify, document, and record cultural resources within that portion of the park. The funding vehicle is a cooperative agreement, and the action is expected to be executed as a task agreement under the National Park Service Colorado Plateau Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU), a partnership structure NPS uses to collaborate with qualified research and academic institutions on resource management needs.

Importantly, this announcement is not an open call for proposals and is not requesting applications from the public. Instead, it is a single-source, noncompetitive award specifically intended for the University of New Mexico. The notice cites DOI policy (505 DM 2.12C) as the basis for proceeding without competition, which is typically used when a specific institution is uniquely qualified or otherwise justified for the work under established federal assistance rules and departmental guidance.

From a funding and administrative standpoint, the opportunity is categorized as discretionary, uses a cooperative agreement instrument, and is listed under a natural resources activity category, even though the scope is cultural in nature (a common overlap in park resource programs where cultural and natural resource stewardship are administered under broader resource management umbrellas). The estimated total funding amount is $35,301, with no cost sharing or matching requirement. The listing shows expected awards as 0, which is consistent with a notice-of-intent posting rather than an open competition where the system anticipates making one or more awards. The award ceiling and floor are listed as $0, which also commonly appears in postings that are informational or administratively structured rather than a standard competitive grant with defined minimums and maximums.

The timeline indicates the announcement was posted on July 29, 2010, with an original and current closing date of August 3, 2010, and an archive date of September 2, 2010. In practice, those dates function more like a short public notice period rather than an application window, since the agency is signaling its intent to fund a designated recipient rather than soliciting proposals. The CFDA number is shown as 00.000 (Not Elsewhere Classified), which generally indicates the activity is being recorded without a specific CFDA program identifier attached in the summary record.

For anyone needing the full announcement materials but having trouble accessing them electronically, the posting provides a point of contact: Jenny Sommer, Agreements Specialist, reachable by phone at 303-969-2392.
