Opportunity Summary:
The Smoke and Air Quality Recommendations opportunity is a National Park Service (NPS) discretionary funding announcement focused on understanding and addressing smoke and air quality impacts, with an emphasis on producing assessments that can be used to support training. In practical terms, the work described centers on analyzing how smoke affects air quality and developing recommendations or evaluation products that help inform training efforts tied to those impacts, which often relate to land management activities and associated public health and resource protection concerns.
This award is structured as a cooperative agreement under a Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) arrangement, specifically under Cooperative Agreement H2370094000. Rather than being an open competition, it is explicitly identified as a sole source action, meaning the NPS intends to make the award to a single pre-identified entity. The intended recipient is the University of Idaho, and the announcement notes that this sole source approach is being used in line with Department of the Interior policy referenced as Department Manual 505 DM2. The announcement also indicates that the project will be executed through a task agreement issued under the existing CESU cooperative agreement framework.
Financially, the opportunity lists an estimated total funding amount of $40,972, with an award ceiling of $40,972 and an award floor of $0. The anticipated number of awards is one, consistent with the sole source nature of the action. No cost sharing or matching is required. The activity is categorized under Natural Resources, and the CFDA number is shown as 00.000 (Not Elsewhere Classified), which is sometimes used when a more specific CFDA listing is not provided in the public synopsis.
In terms of eligibility, the announcement lists public and state-controlled institutions of higher education as eligible applicants, aligning with the planned University of Idaho award. Key dates show it was posted on July 8, 2010, with an original and current closing date of July 9, 2010, and an archive date of August 8, 2010, reflecting a very short public posting period typical of notices tied to sole source CESU actions.
