This notice is explicitly labeled as a Notice of Intent to Award, meaning it is not being presented as a competitive, open solicitation in practice. Reclamation states it plans to fund a specific recipient: the City of Albuquerque, BioPark. While the listing shows "Eligible Applicants: Unrestricted," the accompanying text clarifies the agency's intent to make a single award to that named organization, with an expected award count of 1.
The total estimated funding is $139,566, and both the award ceiling and floor are listed as $139,566, indicating the agency anticipated a single, fixed-size grant rather than a range of possible award amounts. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement. The opportunity was posted and created on August 6, 2012, with an original and current closing date of August 20, 2012, and it was archived on August 21, 2012.
