Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "Vegetation mapping and monitoring" (Funding Opportunity Number: NPS NOISODN00127), was issued by the National Park Service as a discretionary funding action under a cooperative agreement, within the natural resources activity category. The work described focuses on vegetation efforts related specifically to exotic (non-native) plant species within parks that are part of the Sonoran Desert Network. In practical terms, the project is aimed at mapping and monitoring plant communities to better understand where exotic plants are present and how they may be changing over time across those network parks, supporting resource management and conservation decision-making.
The announcement indicates an anticipated single award (Expected Awards: 1) with an estimated total funding amount of $35,936. No formal award ceiling or floor was provided (both listed as 0), which generally means the agency did not specify minimum or maximum bounds beyond the stated estimate. Cost sharing or matching was required, meaning the recipient would be expected to contribute some level of non-federal resources (such as cash, staff time, or in-kind support) as part of the overall project effort, consistent with the terms of the cooperative agreement structure.
Eligibility is effectively limited by the nature of the posting. Although the eligible applicants field is broadly labeled as "Others," the eligibility narrative clarifies that this notice was for informational purposes only and served as a Notice of Intent to award specifically to the Student Conservation Association. The NPS also states the award was competed in accordance with internal NPS procedures, which implies the competition process occurred within the agency's established frameworks rather than through an open public solicitation at the time of posting. Because of that, outside organizations would not have been able to apply through this particular notice.
Key dates show this was a very short-lived posting: it was posted and created on April 19, 2011, had an original and current closing date of April 20, 2011, and was archived on April 22, 2011. The associated CFDA number is 15.931, listed as "Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations," which aligns with the named intended recipient and suggests the work may have involved youth conservation crews or youth-focused conservation programming as part of the project delivery.
For assistance, the contact provided was Rhonda Martinez, Contract Specialist at the National Park Service, reachable by phone at 505-988-6042, particularly for anyone having trouble accessing the full announcement electronically.
