Opportunity Summary:

The National Park Service grant opportunity titled "Permafrost Education for Students and Staff" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIJ1526105144) is a discretionary funding action issued by the National Park Service under the Rocky Mountain Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU). It is structured as a cooperative agreement in the natural resources program area and is specifically described as a notice of intent to make a noncompetitive, single-source award in accordance with Department of the Interior policy (DOI 505 DM 2.12C). In practical terms, this means the announcement is not an open solicitation and was not intended to attract or evaluate multiple competing applications.

The purpose of the award is to support research and education focused on permafrost within Rocky Mountain National Park. Under this task agreement, the University of Colorado Boulder will partner with the National Park Service to investigate the extent of permafrost in the park and to translate that work into educational value for two key audiences: students and NPS park staff. The project emphasizes both generating or compiling science-based understanding of where permafrost occurs and strengthening knowledge transfer so that park personnel and learners can better understand permafrost conditions and implications in a Rocky Mountain setting.

The opportunity listed an expected number of awards of one, with the University of Colorado Boulder identified as the sole eligible recipient. The announcement explicitly states that it is not a request for applications, and the eligibility field reinforces that it is a single-source award. No cost sharing or matching requirement was identified, and the estimated total funding amount for the action was $32,106. The award ceiling and floor were both shown as $0, which commonly appears in notices that are informational in nature rather than competitive funding announcements with defined minimums and maximums.

The timeline indicates the notice was posted and created on May 11, 2010, with an original and current closing date of May 15, 2010, and it was archived on June 14, 2010. For administrative or access issues related to the full announcement, the listed point of contact was Jenny Sommer, Agreements Specialist, reachable by phone at 303-969-2392.
