Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "Technical Assistance for Veterinary Pathology and Diagnostic Services for NPS Wildlife Species" is a National Park Service (NPS) funding action focused on obtaining specialized veterinary pathology and diagnostic support for wildlife species managed or studied within units of the National Park System. The core purpose is to ensure NPS has access to professional diagnostic laboratory capacity and expert veterinary pathology services to investigate wildlife disease issues, determine causes of morbidity or mortality, and support broader wildlife health and natural resource management decisions. The work is structured to deliver technical assistance rather than a traditional research grant, meaning the emphasis is on providing diagnostic services and applied expertise that NPS can use directly for operational wildlife health needs.
This opportunity is categorized as a discretionary funding action with a funding instrument type listed as "Other," and it falls under the Natural Resources activity area. NPS anticipated making one award with an estimated total funding amount of $85,000, which also serves as the award ceiling. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, and the award floor is listed as $0. The opportunity was posted on February 11, 2010, with an original and current closing date of February 15, 2010, and it was later archived on March 17, 2010, indicating it was a short-window announcement tied to a specific, time-sensitive acquisition of services.
The award was intended as a single-source action to Colorado State University, specifically the Colorado State University Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory. While the general eligibility category is listed as public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, the notice makes clear that this particular action was designed for a single identified recipient rather than an open competition. The mechanism for issuing the work is a task agreement under the Rocky Mountain Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU), a partnership framework the Department of the Interior uses to collaborate with universities and other partners on natural and cultural resource projects. The notice also states that the award is made in accordance with Department of the Interior policy referenced as Department Manual 505 DM 2, which governs circumstances and procedures relevant to this kind of agreement and award approach.
Administratively, the opportunity is identified by Funding Opportunity Number J2340100021.
