Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS) funding opportunity titled "Preservation of the Sacristy Barrel Vault/Roof at San Jose de Tumacacori" (Funding Opportunity Number: NPS NOIR8690120011) is a discretionary cooperative agreement focused on natural resources and the preservation of a historic structure at San Jose de Tumacacori. The project centers on preservation work for the sacristy barrel vault and roof, indicating a scope related to stabilizing, conserving, and protecting a significant architectural feature within a unit of the National Park System. The opportunity is associated with CFDA 15.945, which covers Cooperative Research and Training Programs related to resources of the National Park System, aligning the effort with research-informed preservation and technical assistance activities.
This notice is not a traditional competitive grant solicitation. Instead, it is a notice of intent to make a noncompetitive, single-source award through the NPS Desert Southwest Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) mechanism. The announcement specifically states that the action will result in a task agreement award under the CESU, meaning the work would be implemented via a defined agreement and scope of work rather than through an open call for proposals. The noncompetitive nature of the award is justified under Department of the Interior policy (505 Departmental Manual 2.12C), which provides authority and procedures for issuing single-source agreements under certain circumstances.
Only one award is expected, and the total estimated funding amount is $29,022. The listing shows no cost-sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not required to provide non-federal match funds as a condition of the award. The award ceiling and floor are both listed as $0 in the source data, which commonly indicates that fixed ceiling/floor amounts were not populated in that particular database field even though an overall estimated total funding level is provided.
Eligibility is effectively limited because the announcement is not requesting applications from the public. The NPS indicates the award is intended as a single-source agreement to the University of Arizona, making the University the designated recipient. While the system field for eligible applicants is broadly described as "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," the eligibility clarification is explicit: it is not a request for applications and is directed to a single recipient.
The opportunity was posted and created on May 23, 2012, with an original and current closing date of May 28, 2012, and it was archived on June 27, 2012. These short timeframes are consistent with notices of intent for noncompetitive awards, where the purpose is typically public transparency rather than soliciting competing proposals.
