Opportunity Summary:
This grant notice is a National Park Service (NPS) "Notice of Intent to Award" for a project focused on producing high-resolution topographic data from salt marshes within Cape Cod National Seashore using terrestrial laser scanning (TLS). The central point of the announcement is that it is not a competitive funding opportunity and not a request for applications. Instead, it serves as a public notification that NPS plans to fund specific project activities through a cooperative agreement without full and open competition.
The opportunity is listed under Funding Opportunity Number NPS 15 NERO 0116 and falls under the Natural Resources activity category. It is associated with CFDA 15.945, which covers Cooperative Research and Training Programs related to resources of the National Park System. The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates that NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the project rather than simply issuing funds and stepping away. Only one award was anticipated.
The total funding amount is set at $40,098, with the award floor and ceiling both equal to $40,098, meaning the intended award amount is fixed rather than a range. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient would not be expected to provide additional non-federal funds as a condition of the award.
The notice was posted and created on August 7, 2015. The original and current closing date are both listed as August 16, 2015, and the opportunity was archived on August 17, 2015. Because this is a notice of intent to award rather than an open solicitation, the dates function more as an administrative window for public posting than as a typical application deadline.
Eligibility is broadly labeled as "Others" with a note directing readers to additional eligibility information in the full announcement, but the key practical takeaway is that the NPS is not seeking new applicants through this posting. The purpose is transparency: informing the public that the agency intends to make a non-competitive award for work related to terrestrial laser scanning and topographic mapping of salt marsh environments in Cape Cod National Seashore.
