Opportunity Summary:
The Vegetation Project at Channel Islands National Park was a discretionary funding opportunity announced by the National Park Service (NPS) under Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIP12AC10469. It falls under the Natural Resources funding activity category and is associated with CFDA 15.944 (Natural Resource Stewardship). The purpose of the notice was to support vegetation-related work at Channel Islands National Park through a cooperative agreement structure.
This announcement was not an open call for proposals and was not meant to solicit applications from the public. Instead, it served as a Notice of Intent for a single-source, noncompetitive award to a specific organization: the Santa Barbara Botanic Garden. The work would be carried out through a Task Agreement issued under an existing NPS cooperative agreement (Cooperative Agreement Number P11AC80335). The notice cites the Department of the Interior authority for making a noncompetitive award under 505 DM 2.12C, indicating the agency had a formal basis for selecting this partner without competition.
The opportunity anticipated one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $290,217. The listed award ceiling was $1,000,000 and the award floor was $0, which typically reflects administrative flexibility in award sizing even when the agency expects a particular amount for the specific task agreement. No cost sharing or matching was required. While the eligibility field in the listing referenced "Others" and suggested checking additional eligibility information, the announcement itself made clear that this was a single-source action directed to the Santa Barbara Botanic Garden rather than a competitive grant.
Key dates show the notice was posted and created on June 5, 2012, with an original and current closing date of June 8, 2012, and an archive date of July 8, 2012. Because the announcement was not a request for applications, these dates function more as the public notice window rather than a true application deadline. For assistance accessing the full announcement, the listed point of contact was Yvonne Morales, Contract Specialist, reachable by phone at 415-464-5221 or by email at yvonnemorales@nps.gov.
