Opportunity Summary:
The funding opportunity titled "NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD Desert Tortoise Survey at Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument" (Funding Opportunity Number NPSNOIORPI00994) is a National Park Service notice stating the agency plans to make a single award to carry out a specific natural resources project: a desert tortoise survey at Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument. Rather than being an open competition, the announcement functions as a formal public notice that the National Park Service intends to issue a task agreement under an already-existing cooperative agreement.
The recipient identified in the notice is the Arizona Game and Fish Commission. The eligibility section clarifies that the action is tied to that existing cooperative agreement and is being used to complete the survey work at the monument, meaning other applicants are not actually being solicited for consideration under this posting. The opportunity is categorized as discretionary and uses a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument, under the natural resources activity area. The associated CFDA number is 15.944, Natural Resource Stewardship.
In terms of funding, the estimated total funding amount listed is $28,000. The notice indicates an expected number of awards of one. No cost sharing or matching requirement is stated. The posting does not list an award ceiling or floor (both are shown as $0), which typically indicates the agency is not using those fields to define a competitive range and instead is documenting a fixed, intended action under an existing agreement.
Key dates show the announcement was posted and created on June 26, 2014, with an original and current closing date of July 7, 2014, and an archive date of July 8, 2014. Since it is a notice of intent to award, the "closing date" functions more as an administrative timeframe for the notice rather than a deadline for the public to submit applications.
For questions or difficulties accessing the full announcement, the listed point of contact is Trish Fresquez Hernandez, Contract Specialist, reachable by phone at 505-988-6122, with the agency identified as the National Park Service.
