Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS) funding opportunity titled "Smoke Management Guide for Prescribed and Wildland Fire" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIR9560120094) is a discretionary, natural-resources focused cooperative agreement intended to produce a smoke management guide covering both prescribed fire and wildland fire. The award is being made through the National Park Service Rocky Mountain Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) using a task agreement mechanism, which is commonly used within CESU partnerships to support applied research, technical assistance, and science-based products that help land managers.
This notice is not an open competition and it is not a request for applications. Instead, it is a notice of intent to make a single-source, noncompetitive award to the University of Idaho. The announcement cites the Department of the Interior's noncompetitive award authority (505 Departmental Manual 2.12C) as the basis for issuing the agreement without soliciting proposals from other applicants. Although the listing includes an "Eligible Applicants" category of "Others (see text)," the eligibility statement clarifies that only the named recipient (University of Idaho) is intended to receive this funding.
The funding instrument type is a cooperative agreement, indicating that NPS anticipates having substantial involvement in the project compared to a standard grant. The expected number of awards is one, with an estimated total funding amount of $75,161. The notice indicates no cost-sharing or matching requirement. The CFDA (Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance) number associated with this opportunity is 15.945, which covers Cooperative Research and Training Programs related to resources of the National Park System.
The opportunity was posted and created on June 6, 2012, with an original and current closing date of June 11, 2012, and an archive date of July 11, 2012. Because it is a notice of intent for a noncompetitive award rather than a solicitation, the short posting window primarily functions as a public transparency step rather than a period for receiving proposals.
For access issues or questions about the full announcement, the listed point of contact is Kelly Adams, Grants Management Specialist, reachable by phone at 303-969-2392.
