Opportunity Summary:
The Natural Resource Condition Assessment for Glacier Bay National Park (Funding Opportunity Number P13AS00185) was a discretionary National Park Service (NPS) funding action under the U.S. Department of the Interior, structured as a cooperative agreement in the natural resources category. The notice was published on August 19, 2013, and it carried an important limitation: it was not a call for proposals and not a request for applications. Instead, it functioned strictly as a public notice that NPS intended to make a single award without full and open competition.
The purpose of the notice was to announce NPS intent to fund specific project activities described as a Natural Resource Condition Assessment for Glacier Bay National Park. The work was to be carried out through Task Agreement P13AC01093 under an existing Cooperative Agreement (H8W07110001) with Saint Marys University of Minnesota. Saint Marys University of Minnesota was identified as a partner within the Pacific Northwest Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit, which is a framework NPS uses to collaborate with academic and other partners on research, technical assistance, and related scientific support for park management.
Financially, the opportunity listed an estimated total funding amount of $120,885, with the award ceiling and award floor both set at exactly $120,885. This indicates the award amount was predetermined and fixed for the intended recipient and scope of work. NPS expected to make one award, and there was no cost-sharing or matching requirement. The eligible applicant category was private institutions of higher education, consistent with the named partner institution. The funding was associated with CFDA number 15.945 (Cooperative Research and Training Programs - Resources of the National Park System), reflecting its research and resource-management support focus within the National Park System.
The posting timeline reinforces that the notice served an administrative transparency function rather than a competitive funding process. It was created and posted on August 19, 2013, had an original and current closing date of August 21, 2013, and was archived on August 22, 2013. For access issues or questions about the announcement, the listed point of contact was Cameron Reed, Grants Management Specialist, at 415-623-2253 or cameronreed@nps.gov.
