Opportunity Summary:
The Notice of Intent to Award titled "Notice of Intent to Award University of Miami IBBEAM" (Funding Opportunity Number P13AS00188) is a discretionary National Park Service funding action in the education activity category. It is not an open competition. The announcement is essentially an informational posting stating that the National Park Service plans to make a single award, and it explicitly instructs the public not to submit proposals because the work will be issued as a task agreement under an existing cooperative agreement.
The planned award will be executed under cooperative agreement H5000 10 5040 with the University of Miami, specifically through the Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science (RSMAS). In practical terms, this means the University of Miami is the intended recipient and the NPS will fund a defined scope of work through a task agreement mechanism rather than soliciting new applications. The listing indicates an expected number of awards of one, reinforcing that the action is targeted and pre-identified rather than competitive.
The total estimated funding amount for this intended award is $306,939. The notice lists an award ceiling of $0 and an award floor of $0, which is a common artifact in notices of intent and similar announcements where standard ceiling/floor fields are not used to describe the actual planned amount, or where the agency is not structuring the opportunity with the typical competitive range parameters. No cost sharing or matching is required, so the recipient is not expected to provide a non-federal match as a condition of the award.
The opportunity is associated with CFDA number 15.945, described as "Cooperative Research and Training Programs - Resources of the National Park System." That CFDA alignment signals that the purpose of the funding relates to collaborative research, training, or educational activities that support National Park System resources, and that the relationship is structured as a cooperative arrangement rather than a standard grant with minimal federal involvement.
Key dates in the posting show it was created and posted on August 6, 2013, with an original and current closing date of August 9, 2013, and an archive date of August 30, 2013. The short window between posting and closing is consistent with a notice of intent that is not accepting applications, since the "closing date" functions more like an administrative timeline marker than an application deadline.
Although the eligibility field lists "Nonprofits having a 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, other than institutions of higher education," the narrative of the announcement clarifies that the award is intended for the University of Miami under an existing cooperative agreement. In other words, regardless of how the eligibility category appears in the standard data fields, the substance of the notice is that this is a directed action and not an opportunity for new applicants.
