Opportunity Summary:
The opportunity titled "National Park Service Vegetation Mapping at Glen Canyon National Recreation Area" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIR1445110042) is a National Park Service discretionary funding action focused on natural resources work, specifically vegetation mapping at Glen Canyon National Recreation Area. The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, meaning the project is structured as a collaborative effort in which the National Park Service expects to have substantial involvement in the work rather than simply issuing a hands-off grant. The opportunity is associated with CFDA 15.945, which covers cooperative research and training programs related to resources of the National Park System.
This posting is not an open competition and is not a request for applications. It is a notice of intent to make a noncompetitive, single-source award under the National Park Service Rocky Mountain Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU). The announcement explicitly states that the award will be made in accordance with Department of the Interior policy (505 Departmental Manual 2.12C), which provides the basis for issuing certain awards without competition when specific justifications and conditions are met. In practical terms, this means the National Park Service had already identified the project partner in advance and published the notice primarily for transparency and documentation rather than to solicit proposals.
The only expected award is one, and the identified recipient is Northern Arizona University. Eligible applicants are therefore effectively limited in this instance, even though the general eligibility field references "Others"; the eligibility clarification makes clear that the action is intended for a single institution and that outside organizations should not prepare or submit applications. The estimated total funding for the project is $218,977, and there is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of the award.
In terms of timing, the opportunity was posted and created on July 22, 2011, with an original and current closing date of July 26, 2011, and it was later archived on August 25, 2011. The brief closing window is consistent with postings that serve as notices of intent for pre-selected, noncompetitive awards rather than full competitive grant cycles. The listing shows award ceiling and floor amounts as $0, which often appears in records where the system fields were not used to define limits, even though an estimated total funding amount is provided.
