Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS) posted a continuation grant opportunity titled "Seed Collection and Plant Propagation Marin Headlands Fort Baker" (Funding Opportunity Number: NPS NOI J8148000172). The purpose of the project is to continue an existing, ongoing collaboration between the NPS and the Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy focused on collecting native plant seed and carrying out revegetation work in two key areas within the Golden Gate National Recreation Area: the Marin Headlands and Fort Baker. In practical terms, the work supports natural resource stewardship by sourcing appropriate native plant material through seed collection, propagating plants, and using those plants in restoration or revegetation efforts that help maintain or recover local habitats.
This opportunity was issued as a cooperative agreement under the Natural Resources funding activity category, meaning it is structured around partnership work where the federal agency is expected to remain substantially involved rather than simply issuing a hands-off grant. It is explicitly labeled a continuation, which signals it is meant to extend or build on work already underway rather than launch a brand-new, open competition. The announcement states that it will be a single-source award to the Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy, so other organizations were not intended to compete for the funding even though the eligible applicant category listed includes certain nonprofits (specifically nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status, other than institutions of higher education). There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient would not be required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of the award.
The expected award count is one, with an estimated total funding amount of $262,020, and the award ceiling is also $262,020 (with an award floor of $0). The opportunity was posted on March 23, 2011, created the same day, and had a very short application window, closing on March 26, 2011, which is consistent with a continuation and single-source approach where the agency is formalizing funding for an established partner. The opportunity was later archived on April 25, 2011.
For access issues or questions about the announcement, the listed federal contact was Carol Axley, Contracting Officer, reachable by phone at 415-561-4754 or by email at carolaxley@nps.gov.
