Opportunity Summary:
The Preservation grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOI NCRO R3992120024) is a National Park Service (NPS) notice of intent to make a noncompetitive cooperative agreement award under the Chesapeake Watershed Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CW CESU). Rather than being an open call for proposals, it serves as a formal public notice that NPS plans to issue a task agreement through the CESU network in accordance with the U.S. Department of the Interior policy at 505 Departmental Manual 2.12C, which allows certain noncompetitive awards under specified circumstances. The activity area is categorized under Cultural Resources, and the funding is tied to the CFDA listing 15.945, Cooperative Research and Training Programs - Resources of the National Park System, indicating the work is connected to research, training, and support activities that benefit NPS stewardship responsibilities.
The opportunity is listed as discretionary funding and uses a Cooperative Agreement as the funding instrument, which typically implies that NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the project during performance (for example, coordination, technical participation, or joint planning) rather than simply issuing a grant with minimal agency engagement. The posting date and creation date are both Aug 14, 2012, with an original and current closing date of Aug 21, 2012, and an archive date of Sep 20, 2012. The estimated total funding amount is $80,000. No cost sharing or matching funds are required. The announcement shows an award ceiling and floor of $0, which usually reflects that the specific financial terms are handled in the resulting agreement rather than expressed as a competitive range in the public synopsis.
Eligibility is not broadly open. Although the eligibility field is labeled in a general way, the eligibility statement makes it clear this is a single-source action and not a request for applications. The intended recipient is George Washington University, meaning other organizations are not being solicited to apply and should not expect a competitive selection process. Only one award is expected.
