Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "Support Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA) Inventory Compliance for Navajo National Monument, Phase II" is a National Park Service (NPS) funding action focused on supporting NAGPRA-related compliance work connected to Navajo National Monument. The work falls under the broad category of natural resources and is being carried out through a cooperative agreement, indicating that the recipient and the federal agency are expected to collaborate during the project rather than the recipient operating entirely independently.
This posting is not a typical competitive grant solicitation. Instead, it is a notice of intent to make a noncompetitive (single-source) award under the National Park Service Colorado Plateau Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU). The announcement cites Department of the Interior policy (505 Departmental Manual 2.12C) as the basis for issuing the award without competition. In practical terms, that means the agency has already selected the intended recipient and is publishing the notice to document transparency and compliance with federal award procedures. The announcement also explicitly states that it is "not a request for applications," so outside organizations are not being invited to apply.
Funding for the project is relatively modest, with an estimated total of $27,000 and an expected number of awards of one. The award ceiling and floor are both listed as $0, which is commonly seen in older federal postings where the precise award amount is managed through the associated task agreement documentation rather than expressed as a fixed maximum and minimum in the public listing. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not expected to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of the award.
Eligibility is technically shown as "Others," but the eligibility section clarifies that this is a single-source award to the Museum of Northern Arizona. That detail is the key point for understanding who will receive the funding and why other entities are not eligible in practice for this specific opportunity. The listing is associated with CFDA number 15.945, covering Cooperative Research and Training Programs focused on Resources of the National Park System, which aligns with CESU-style partnerships that support research, cultural resource work, and technical assistance for park units.
In terms of timing, the opportunity was posted and created on July 27, 2011, with an original and current closing date of August 1, 2011, and an archive date of August 31, 2011. Because this is a notice of intent rather than an open competition, the closing date functions more like an administrative window for the notice rather than a deadline for proposal submission by applicants.
