Opportunity Summary:

The National Park Service funding opportunity titled "National Park Service Stabilize Eagle Cliff Mine Cabin" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIP13AC00684) is a discretionary grant notice that serves as a notice of intent to make a noncompetitive award rather than an open call for proposals. The work will be carried out through a cooperative agreement under the National Park Service Desert Southwest Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU), which is a partnership framework the NPS uses to collaborate with specific partner organizations on research, technical assistance, and resource management projects. In this case, the activity category is Natural Resources, and the underlying purpose is to support stabilization work associated with the Eagle Cliff Mine Cabin, which suggests a focus on protecting or preserving a cultural or historic structure within the National Park System by preventing further deterioration and maintaining it in a safe and stable condition.

This announcement is explicitly not a request for applications, meaning the public should not interpret it as a competitive grant opportunity. Instead, it documents the governments intent to issue a single-source task agreement award to a specific partner, identified as Community Cornerstones Partnerships. The notice cites the Department of the Interior policy authority for noncompetitive awards, referenced as 505 Departmental Manual 2.12C, indicating the award is being justified and executed under an established exception to competition rules. Although the listing includes an "Eligible Applicants" field that generically states "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," the eligibility narrative clarifies that this is a single recipient action, so other entities are not being invited to apply.

The opportunity anticipates one award with an estimated total funding amount of $32,299. The listing shows an award ceiling and award floor of $0, which often appears in notices of intent or administrative postings where the exact structure of the award is handled through the attached announcement or subsequent agreement documentation, rather than being expressed as a typical competitive range. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not expected to contribute a mandatory non-federal match as a condition of the award. The CFDA number associated with the funding is 15.945, which covers Cooperative Research and Training Programs and Resources of the National Park System, aligning with CESU-type cooperative work and NPS resource stewardship activities.

In terms of timing, the opportunity was posted and created on June 24, 2013, with an original and current closing date of June 28, 2013, and an archive date of July 28, 2013. The short window between posting and closing is consistent with a notice of intent for a noncompetitive award, since the purpose is primarily transparency and public notice rather than providing time for proposal development by multiple applicants. Anyone needing access to the full announcement is directed to contact the NPS grants management point of contact, Kelly Adams, Grants Management Specialist, at 303-969-2392, which is included to help stakeholders retrieve the full documentation if they cannot access it electronically.
