Opportunity Summary:
The Vegetation Program Monitoring and Outreach opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number P13AS00227) is a National Park Service (NPS), U.S. Department of the Interior, Notice of Intent to Award rather than a competitive grant solicitation. In practical terms, it is a public notice that NPS plans to make a single cooperative agreement award without full and open competition, specifically to the Point Reyes National Seashore Association (PRNSA). Because it is not a request for applications, other organizations are not being invited to apply through this posting; the intent is to document NPSs planned direct collaboration with an identified nonprofit partner.
The project is focused on natural resource stewardship and public engagement at Point Reyes National Seashore, with activities centered on vegetation and habitat restoration monitoring. PRNSA is expected to work collaboratively with NPS staff on four main tasks: monitoring water quality and bird use at the Giacomini wetland restoration site, hiring an intern to support dune restoration efforts, studying how grazing practices interact with rare plant populations, and delivering an educational program in the wetlands. Taken together, these components combine field monitoring and applied research with hands-on restoration capacity and public-facing interpretation, reflecting the cooperative nature of the agreement where the park and partner are working side by side.
The stated public purpose is to restore and protect native ecosystems at Point Reyes National Seashore for public enjoyment and use, while also engaging visitors and the community through interpretation and education tied directly to park resources. The funding activity category is Natural Resources and the CFDA listing provided is 15.944 (Natural Resource Stewardship). The opportunity anticipates one award with an estimated total funding amount of $36,375, and it notes no cost sharing or matching requirement. Although the posting lists eligibility as 501(c)(3) nonprofits (other than institutions of higher education), the notice makes clear the intended recipient is PRNSA under a non-competitive intent-to-award framework.
Key dates in the announcement indicate it was posted and created on August 23, 2013, with an original and current closing date of August 28, 2013, and an archive date of August 30, 2013. A named contact is provided for access issues or questions about the announcement: Yvonne Morales at 415-464-5221 or yvonne_morales@nps.gov.
