Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service YIP Career Internship Corps (CIC) Project Intergovernmental Internship Cooperative (additional phase) is a National Park Service discretionary funding action that is being issued as a cooperative agreement under the Colorado Plateau Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU). Rather than being a typical open grant competition, this notice functions as a formal notice of intent to make a noncompetitive, single-source award. The National Park Service indicates that the award will be made through a task agreement mechanism under the CESU framework, which is commonly used to support collaborative research, technical assistance, and training tied to natural and cultural resource stewardship across the National Park System.
A key point is that this announcement is not a request for applications. In practical terms, that means the opportunity was not open for general submission by multiple applicants, and outside entities were not expected to apply. The document explicitly states that the intended recipient is Southern Utah University, and the award is being justified as noncompetitive in accordance with Department of the Interior policy (505 Departmental Manual 2.12C), which covers circumstances where single-source or otherwise noncompetitive financial assistance actions are appropriate. The listing also notes that further details were contained in an attached announcement, and provides a contact for assistance accessing it.
From an administrative perspective, the funding opportunity number is NPS NOIR1360110067. The activity category is Natural Resources, and the related CFDA program listing is 15.945, titled Cooperative Research and Training Programs - Resources of the National Park System. The NPS anticipated making one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $67,970. The listing shows no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning the recipient was not required to provide a non-federal match as a condition of the award. The award ceiling and floor are both shown as $0, which typically reflects that specific ceiling/floor figures were not configured in the public synopsis, not that the award amount was literally zero, since the estimated total funding is provided separately.
Timing details in the synopsis indicate the opportunity was posted and created on August 1, 2011, with an original and current closing date of August 5, 2011, and an archive date of September 4, 2011. That very short posting window is consistent with a notice-of-intent posting for a noncompetitive award rather than an open solicitation. Eligibility is listed broadly as "Others" with a clarification in the additional information field, but the narrative eligibility statement makes the intent clear: it is a single-source award to Southern Utah University, so other applicants were not being solicited.
For support or questions related to obtaining the full announcement materials, the notice directs inquiries to Jenny Sommer, Agreements Specialist, at (303) 969-2392, specifically for cases where there is difficulty accessing the announcement electronically.
