Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "Vegetation mapping and monitoring" (Funding Opportunity Number NPSNOISODN10367), is a National Park Service (NPS) discretionary funding action offered through a cooperative agreement under the natural resources activity category. The work described is focused on vegetation mapping monitoring, specifically carried out as a task agreement issued under an existing cooperative agreement rather than as a standalone, open solicitation. In practical terms, that means the NPS intended to add or fund a defined piece of work (vegetation monitoring tied to vegetation mapping efforts) under a pre-established partnership framework.
The announcement is explicitly labeled "for informational purposes only" and functions as a Notice of Intent to Award rather than a competitive call for new applicants. According to the eligibility note, the NPS planned to make the award to the Student Conservation Association to support natural resource research, inventory, and monitoring across 11 parks within the Sonoran Desert Network. The notice also states the award was competed in accordance with internal NPS procedures, suggesting that any competition occurred within the agency's established process rather than through an open, public competition where outside entities could newly apply.
Financially, the opportunity lists an estimated total funding amount of $39,814, with no cost sharing or matching requirement. The award ceiling and floor are both listed as $0, which commonly appears in notices like this when the agency does not want to specify a per-award range in the posting or when the posting is primarily administrative and informational. The opportunity anticipated a single award (Expected Awards: 1). It is associated with CFDA number 15.931, "Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations," which aligns with the involvement of the Student Conservation Association and indicates the work likely involves conservation field support, potentially including youth or service-based conservation staffing models.
Timing-wise, the posting and creation date are May 10, 2012, with an original and current closing date of May 11, 2012, and an archive date of May 12, 2012. Those dates reinforce that this was not designed as a long open application window, but rather as a brief public posting to document an intended award action that was already underway.
For questions or difficulty accessing the full announcement, the listed point of contact is Rhonda Martinez, Contract Specialist at the National Park Service, reachable at (505) 988-6042.
