Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS), within the U.S. Department of the Interior, published a Notice of Intent (NOI) for a discretionary education-related cooperative agreement opportunity titled "Using Archeology to Link Students to Arizonas Latino Heritage." The key point of this announcement is that it is not a request for applications or an open competition. Instead, it serves as public notice that NPS plans to make a single task agreement award under an existing cooperative agreement (H2370114000) specifically to the University of Arizona.
The opportunity is listed under Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOI WASO R2275120012 and is associated with CFDA 15.945, which covers Cooperative Research and Training Programs related to resources of the National Park System. The intent of the project, as indicated by the title and category, is to use archaeology as an educational tool to connect students with Arizona's Latino heritage, aligning with NPS interests in interpretation, heritage preservation, public education, and research or training that supports National Park System resources and related cultural histories.
In terms of funding and award structure, NPS anticipated making one award with an estimated total funding amount of $58,000. The award ceiling is also listed as $58,000, with an award floor of $0, indicating that while the planned amount was up to the ceiling, the specific final amount could depend on the negotiated task agreement scope. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement identified, meaning the recipient was not expected to provide a mandatory non-federal match as a condition of the award. The funding instrument type is a cooperative agreement, which generally implies substantial involvement by the federal agency in the project compared to a standard grant.
Eligibility is noted as "Public and State controlled institutions of higher education." However, because this is an NOI stating an intention to award to a named institution (the University of Arizona) under an existing cooperative agreement, the practical effect is that it is not inviting other eligible entities to apply during the listed timeframe. The announcement was posted and created on July 30, 2012, with an original and current closing date of August 2, 2012, and an archive date of September 1, 2012, reflecting a short public notice window consistent with intent-to-award postings rather than a competitive solicitation.
For assistance accessing the full announcement, the notice provides a point of contact: Sybil Winfield, Contracting Officer, reachable by phone at 303-969-2076 or by email at sybilwinfield@nps.gov.
