Opportunity Summary:
This notice is a National Park Service (NPS), U.S. Department of the Interior announcement stating the agency's intent to make a single, specific award related to research on how the Great South Bay plankton community responded to Hurricane Sandy. It is explicitly not a competitive grant solicitation and not a request for applications. Instead, it serves as public notice that NPS plans to move forward with funding a defined set of project activities without full and open competition, using Hurricane Sandy recovery funds.
The funding vehicle is a cooperative agreement, and the action described is a modification to add funds to existing work already in place under Task Agreement P13AC00553, which sits under a broader Cooperative Agreement (P09AC00212) with Stony Brook University. In practical terms, this means the research effort is a continuation or expansion of an ongoing collaboration rather than a brand-new program open to outside applicants. The stated intent is single-source: the only anticipated recipient is Stony Brook University (an institution of higher education), and the listing makes clear that other organizations are not being invited to apply.
Financially, the opportunity lists an estimated total funding amount of $199,118, with the award floor and ceiling both set at $199,118, indicating a single award at that exact amount. No cost sharing or matching is required. The opportunity is categorized as discretionary funding and tied to CFDA 15.945, Cooperative Research and Training Programs - Resources of the National Park System, which aligns with NPS-supported research and training activities that inform stewardship and management of park resources.
From an administrative timeline standpoint, the notice was posted on August 27, 2014, with an original and current closing date of September 1, 2014, and an archive date of September 2, 2014. Those dates reflect the window for public notice rather than an application period, since the announcement is not competitive. The posting also directs readers to consult the attachment under the full announcement link for complete details, and it provides a point of contact for access issues: Jennifer Fleming, NPS Northeast Region Agreements Officer, reachable by phone at 215-597-6476.
