Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service Yosemite Archive Backlog Cataloging Project (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIR8819110105) is a discretionary funding action by the National Park Service that will be carried out through a cooperative agreement under the Rocky Mountain Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU). The project falls under the Natural Resources funding activity category and is intended to support work related to addressing an archival cataloging backlog connected to Yosemite materials. The announcement makes clear that the mechanism will be a task agreement award issued through the CESU framework, which is commonly used by DOI and NPS to partner with eligible academic and research institutions on resource-related projects.
This notice is not an open competition and it is not a request for applications. Instead, it is a notice of intent to make a single-source, noncompetitive award in accordance with Department of the Interior policy cited as DOI 505 DM 2.12C. In practical terms, that means the agency has already selected the recipient and is publishing the notice to document the rationale and process under the applicable DOI assistance and acquisition rules rather than to solicit proposals from the public. The listed eligible applicant category is "Others," but the eligibility section explicitly states that this particular award is intended for a single recipient: the University of Colorado at Boulder.
In terms of funding details, the opportunity anticipated one award with an estimated total funding amount of $29,365. The award ceiling and floor are both shown as $0, which typically indicates that the formal posting did not set standard competitive range parameters because the action is a predefined, single-source agreement rather than a competitive grant. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement indicated, so the recipient is not expected to provide a non-federal match as a condition of the award. The opportunity is associated with a placeholder CFDA listing of 00.000 (Not Elsewhere Classified), which is sometimes used when a specific CFDA program number is not assigned or not being used for the posting.
Key dates show the opportunity was posted and created on April 19, 2011, with an original and current closing date of April 23, 2011, and an archive date of May 23, 2011. Because this is not a solicitation, the "closing date" functions more like an administrative posting window rather than a deadline for competitive submissions. Anyone seeking additional details beyond the summary would be directed to the attached announcement referenced in the notice or to the listed point of contact for access help: Jenny Sommer, Agreements Specialist, at 303-969-2392.
