Opportunity Summary:

This grant opportunity is a National Park Service (NPS) Notice of Intent to Award, meaning it is not a typical open competition where many applicants submit proposals. Instead, NPS is stating its intention to issue a task agreement under an already-existing cooperative agreement specifically with the Pueblo of Isleta. The purpose of the task agreement is to complete excavation-related work and produce the associated analysis and reports for the Isleta Pueblo Convento project. In practical terms, the funding supports finishing archaeological excavation tasks and delivering the documentation and reporting products that are normally required to close out or advance a cultural resources project.

The opportunity is labeled as discretionary funding and uses a Cooperative Agreement as the funding instrument type, reflecting a project where NPS expects substantial involvement or collaboration rather than simply issuing a standard grant with minimal federal participation. The activity category is listed under Natural Resources, and the CFDA listing provided is 15.935 (National Trails System Projects). While that CFDA title may sound broader than the specific work described, the key point in the notice is the project scope: excavation analysis and reporting at the Isleta Pueblo Convento.

Only one award is expected, with an estimated total funding amount of $25,975. The notice indicates no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not expected to provide a required non-federal match as a condition of the award. The Award Ceiling and Award Floor are both shown as $0, which is common in brief notices like this and generally means the specific dollar amount is handled through the task agreement rather than being expressed as a competitive range in the announcement itself.

Eligibility is effectively limited to the intended recipient. Although the eligibility field is broadly labeled "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," the eligibility statement and description make it clear that this notice is tied to an existing cooperative agreement and is intended for the Isleta Pueblo. In other words, the announcement is primarily informational and administrative, documenting NPSs intent rather than inviting outside entities to apply.

Key dates show the notice was posted and created on July 14, 2014, with an original and current closing date of July 24, 2014, and an archive date of July 25, 2014. Those dates reflect the short window typical of intent-to-award notices, where the agency is providing public notice before moving forward with a non-competitive action under an existing agreement.

For questions or issues accessing the full announcement, the listed point of contact is Trish Fresquez Hernandez, Contract Specialist, at 505-988-6122 (National Park Service). The funding opportunity number is NPSNOINTIR1401032, and the title is "NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD Excavation analysis and reports at Isleta Pueblo Convento."
