Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "National Park Service Seventy five Years of Vegetation Change in Pinyon Juniper Woodlands, Grand Canyon National Park" is a National Park Service (NPS) funding action focused on natural resource research, specifically examining long-term vegetation change in pinyon-juniper woodland ecosystems within Grand Canyon National Park. The intent of the project, as reflected in the title and program framing, is to support analysis of how vegetation conditions have shifted over roughly 75 years, which can inform park management decisions related to ecosystem health, resilience, fire risk, climate and drought impacts, invasive species pressures, and broader landscape change on the Colorado Plateau.
This notice is not a traditional competitive grant solicitation. Instead, it is a Notice of Intent for a noncompetitive (single-source) award issued under the Department of the Interior authority referenced as DOI 505 DM 2.12C. The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, meaning NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the project compared to a standard grant. The action will be implemented through a task agreement under the National Park Service Colorado Plateau Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU), which is a partnership framework used by federal agencies and universities or other partners to conduct research, technical assistance, and resource management support. In practical terms, the CESU structure often facilitates collaboration, access to specialized expertise, and streamlined agreement mechanisms for science and stewardship work.
The announcement indicates there is expected to be one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $60,000. The award ceiling and award floor are both listed as $0 in the source data, which typically means the posting did not specify a formal upper or lower bound beyond the total estimate, rather than implying no funding. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement stated for the recipient.
Eligibility is effectively limited because the notice explicitly states it is a single-source award to Northern Arizona University. While the general "Eligible Applicants" field is marked as "Others (see text field...)," the eligibility clarification makes clear that outside applications are not being requested or accepted. The posting includes a CFDA listing of "00.000 Not Elsewhere Classified," a placeholder classification that sometimes appears when a program does not map cleanly to a specific CFDA number in the source system.
Key administrative dates in the record show it was posted on August 9, 2010, with an original and current closing date of August 14, 2010, and an archive date of September 13, 2010. Because it is not a request for applications, the "closing date" functions more like a posting window for public notice rather than an application deadline in the usual sense.
