Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service SLBE Ethnobotany and Climate Change opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIP13AC00710) is a National Park Service (NPS) discretionary funding action being carried out through a cooperative agreement under the Desert Southwest Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU). The activity category is Natural Resources, and the project focus implied by the title is ethnobotany in the context of climate change, meaning work that connects human cultural relationships with plants (such as traditional use, knowledge, and management) to changing environmental conditions.
This posting is explicitly a notice of intent rather than a competitive solicitation. It states that it is not a request for applications and that the award will be made as a single-source, noncompetitive action in accordance with Department of the Interior policy (505 Departmental Manual 2.12C), which is the type of authority agencies cite when they plan to fund a specific partner without opening a competition. In practical terms, that means outside organizations should not expect an open application process for this particular listing.
The announcement anticipates one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $58,000. No cost sharing or matching is required. The listing shows no stated award ceiling or floor (both listed as $0), which typically indicates the system entry did not specify formal minimum/maximum amounts beyond the total estimate for this specific action.
Eligibility is effectively limited by the single-source designation. While the general eligible applicant category is listed as "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," the eligibility information clearly states the intended recipient: this is a single source award to the University of Arizona. The timeline reflects that intent as well, with the posting date of June 26, 2013, and a very near-term closing date of July 1, 2013, followed by an archive date of July 31, 2013.
For anyone needing the full announcement but having trouble accessing it electronically, the point of contact provided is Kelly Adams, Grants Management Specialist, reachable by phone at 303-969-2392.
