Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service Yellowstone Archaeology Technical Assistance Project (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIJ1580110107) is a discretionary funding action that the National Park Service planned to carry out through a cooperative agreement under the Rocky Mountain Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU). The purpose of the notice is to announce the agency's intent to make a task agreement award connected to natural resources work, specifically focused on providing archaeology-related technical assistance tied to Yellowstone. The announcement frames this as a formal "notice of intent" rather than an open competition, meaning it functions more as a public record of the agency's planned award than as an invitation for multiple organizations to submit proposals.
A key point is that this is explicitly not a request for applications. The notice states it is a single-source, noncompetitive award to the University of Montana, issued in accordance with Department of the Interior policy (DOI 505 DM 2.12C). In practical terms, that means eligibility is effectively limited to the named recipient for this particular action, even though the general eligibility field is broad and references "Others" with additional clarification. The opportunity anticipates one award in total, and it does not require cost sharing or a matching contribution from the recipient.
In terms of funding, the estimated total amount associated with the action is $76,000. The listed award ceiling and floor are both shown as $0, which commonly appears in records where the funding amount is controlled through the associated task agreement documentation rather than presented as a competitive range for applicants. The CFDA number is listed as 00.000 "Not Elsewhere Classified," which generally indicates the assistance does not map neatly onto a single standard CFDA program listing in the way many recurring grant programs do.
The timeline in the posting reflects how quickly notices of intent can move, since they are not structured around an applicant pool and a long review period. The opportunity was posted on January 5, 2011, with an original and current closing date of January 9, 2011, and it was archived on February 8, 2011. Those dates reinforce that the listing was primarily informational, documenting the planned award action rather than running a typical open solicitation.
For access or administrative questions about the full announcement materials, the listing provides a point of contact: Jenny Sommer, Agreements Specialist, at 303-969-2392, specifically for help if the full announcement could not be accessed electronically.
