Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS) announced a discretionary funding opportunity titled "Natural Resource Condition Assessment for Cabrillo National Monument and Channel Islands National Park" (Funding Opportunity Number P13AS00021). The purpose of the notice is to request statements of interest and qualifications from potential partners who can collaborate with NPS on producing Natural Resource Condition Assessments (NRCAs) for two park units in California: Cabrillo National Monument and Channel Islands National Park. In practical terms, NPS is looking to identify a qualified collaborator to help evaluate and summarize the condition of key natural resources in these parks, using the responses to this request as the basis for selecting a partner for a project that will ultimately be funded by NPS.
The award is planned as a cooperative agreement, which typically means substantial involvement by NPS staff in the project rather than a simple pass-through grant. The activity category is Natural Resources, and the assistance listing is under CFDA 15.945, Cooperative Research and Training Programs - Resources of the National Park System. NPS anticipated making one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $130,000. No cost sharing or matching funds are required, and both the award ceiling and floor were listed as $0, which generally indicates the specific funding level will be determined through the final project scope and agreement rather than being constrained by preset minimums or maximums in the announcement.
Eligibility is limited because the opportunity is issued under the Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) Program. CESUs are established partnerships designed to facilitate research, technical assistance, and education in support of public land and resource management. To be eligible, applicants must be participating partners in either the Californian CESU or the Colorado Plateau CESU. The eligible applicant category is listed broadly as "Others," but the controlling requirement is CESU partnership status in those specified units.
The opportunity was posted and created on March 28, 2013, with an original and current closing date of April 19, 2013. Additional details and the full announcement were available through Grants.gov. For assistance accessing the full announcement electronically, the NPS contact person listed was Cameron Reed (phone 415-623-2253, email CameronReed@nps.gov).
