Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service opportunity titled "Wayside Exhibit Design at Colorado National Monument" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIJ1378100010) is a discretionary, natural-resources focused cooperative agreement that will be issued as a task agreement under the National Park Service Colorado Plateau Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU). The purpose of the award is to support the development of an exhibit wayside plan for Colorado National Monument, specifically covering twenty-two already-established wayside locations where existing, outdated wayside exhibits need to be replaced. In practical terms, the project is aimed at planning and designing updated interpretive signage and exhibits that visitors encounter on-site, improving the accuracy, clarity, and overall effectiveness of public-facing interpretation across those locations.
This announcement is not a competitive grant solicitation and is explicitly described as a notice of intent for a noncompetitive, single-source award, issued in accordance with Department of the Interior policy cited as DOI 505 DM 2.12C. Northern Arizona University is identified as the sole intended recipient, and the notice clarifies that it is not requesting applications from other institutions or organizations. The "Eligible Applicants" field reflects this by indicating "Others (see text...)" but the eligibility statement makes the intent unambiguous: the cooperative agreement is directed to Northern Arizona University only.
The expected number of awards is one, with an estimated total funding amount of $37,283. No cost sharing or matching requirement is listed, meaning the recipient is not expected to provide non-federal match as a condition of the award. The listing includes an award ceiling and award floor of $0, which commonly indicates that the exact award structure is governed by the specific task agreement and internal budgeting rather than a competitively defined range for applicants.
Key timeline details show the opportunity was posted and created on May 11, 2010, with an original and current closing date of May 15, 2010, and an archive date of June 14, 2010. Because it is a notice of intent rather than an open call, the short window is consistent with public notice practices for single-source federal actions rather than a typical multi-week application period.
For additional assistance, the announcement provides a point of contact for access issues: Jenny Sommer, Agreements Specialist, at 303-969-2392.
