Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS) funding opportunity titled "Stabilize and Maintain Fort Piute Masonry Ruins" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIR8380120061) is a discretionary cooperative agreement focused on natural resources and the preservation of historic structures within the National Park System. The project’s purpose is to carry out work that stabilizes and maintains the masonry ruins at Fort Piute, helping prevent further deterioration and supporting long-term protection of the site. The opportunity sits under CFDA 15.945, which covers cooperative research and training programs related to National Park System resources.
This notice is not a typical competitive grant solicitation. Instead, it is a formal notice of intent by the NPS to make a single, noncompetitive award through the Desert Southwest Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) mechanism. In practical terms, this means the NPS planned to issue a task agreement under the CESU framework rather than solicit proposals from multiple applicants. The announcement specifically cites Department of the Interior policy (505 Departmental Manual 2.12C) as the authority supporting a noncompetitive approach, which is commonly used when there is a justified reason to select a specific partner organization.
The estimated total funding for the project is $48,699, and the NPS expected to make one award. The listing shows no stated award ceiling or floor (both are listed as 0), which typically indicates that the funding amount is defined by the agreement budget rather than by a broad range published for applicants. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning the recipient is not expected to provide a mandatory financial match as a condition of the award.
Eligibility is effectively limited because the announcement states it is a single-source award and "not a request for applications." The intended recipient identified in the notice is Cornerstones Community Partnerships. While the system field for eligible applicants is broadly labeled "Others," the eligibility statement clarifies that outside applications are not being sought, and the award decision is already directed to the named organization.
Key dates show the notice was posted and created on June 11, 2012, with an original and current closing date of June 18, 2012, and an archive date of July 18, 2012. These dates function more as administrative timelines for publication and recordkeeping than as an application window, since the announcement is not open for competition. Anyone needing help accessing the full announcement was directed to contact Kelly Adams, Grants Management Specialist, at 303-969-2392.
