Opportunity Summary:
The funding opportunity titled "Restoration Assistance at Montezuma Castle and Tuzigoot National Monuments" (Funding Opportunity Number: NPS NOIP13AC00244) is a National Park Service discretionary funding notice for a cooperative agreement focused on natural resource stewardship work in the Verde River area. It was posted and created on May 28, 2013, with a closing date of June 6, 2013, and an archive date of July 6, 2013. The total estimated funding amount is $25,000, and there is no cost sharing or matching requirement. The listing is associated with CFDA 15.944, Natural Resource Stewardship, and the opportunity anticipates a single award.
This announcement is specifically a Notice of Intent rather than an open solicitation. In practical terms, that means it is not a request for applications and is not designed for general competitive submission. Instead, the National Park Service indicates its intent to make a noncompetitive, single-source award under the Department of the Interior 505 Departmental Manual. The identified recipient is the Friends of the Verde River Greenway (FVRG), and eligibility is therefore effectively limited to that organization for this particular award.
The purpose of the cooperative agreement is to carry out natural resource management and restoration activities within the Verde River riparian corridor connected to Montezuma Castle and Tuzigoot National Monuments. Core on-the-ground work includes invasive plant removal and ecological restoration efforts intended to improve habitat conditions and support healthier riparian ecosystems. A public education component is also included, reflecting an emphasis not only on field restoration but also on outreach that helps inform and involve the surrounding community in stewardship of the Verde River corridor.
The roles are laid out as a collaborative partnership. FVRG is highlighted as bringing specialized restoration capacity and outreach education experience, with a stated emphasis on the Verde River. A key feature of FVRG's contribution is its ability to mobilize substantial volunteer labor, which expands the amount of work that can be accomplished while also creating direct community engagement through hands-on participation. The National Park Service will provide oversight of field work and contribute technical expertise, reinforcing that this is a cooperative agreement where federal staff are expected to be actively involved rather than simply providing pass-through funding.
In addition to field oversight and technical support, the National Park Service will participate in broader coordination efforts tied to regional restoration and youth engagement. Specifically, NPS will take part in the Verde River Watershed Restoration Coalition and the Verde Valley Youth Outreach steering committees, suggesting the project is intended to align with larger watershed-scale restoration priorities and to integrate youth-focused education or stewardship programming where appropriate.
For access issues or further questions about the announcement, the listed point of contact is Lisa Henson, Contract Specialist with the National Park Service, reachable by phone at 928-608-6391.
