Opportunity Summary:
The Visitor Survey Project (Funding Opportunity Number: NPS NOIR2330106500) is a discretionary National Park Service funding opportunity structured as a cooperative agreement under the Natural Resources activity category. The purpose of the award is to continue ongoing work supporting two related efforts across National Park units: visitor surveys and visitor card projects. In practical terms, the project is focused on collecting and managing information about park visitors, typically to better understand who is visiting, what they are doing, how they experience park resources and services, and what improvements might be needed to support both visitor experience and resource stewardship.
This opportunity is administered through the Rocky Mountain Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) and is intended to result in a task agreement under that CESU framework. The announcement also notes that the award is made in accordance with Department of the Interior policy (Department Manual 505 DM 2), indicating the action follows internal DOI rules for these types of agreements and, as stated, is handled as a single-source action rather than a broadly competed solicitation.
Funding details show an estimated total funding amount of $268,944, with an award ceiling of $268,944 and an award floor of $0. The expectation is for one award to be made, and there is no cost sharing or matching requirement. Although the general eligibility category listed includes public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, the opportunity explicitly states this action is a single-source award to the University of Idaho in Moscow, Idaho, meaning the intended recipient is already identified and the listing primarily documents the award action rather than inviting applications from multiple organizations.
Key dates included a posted and creation date of March 5, 2010, with an original and current closing date of March 10, 2010. The opportunity was archived on April 9, 2010. For questions or issues accessing the full announcement, the listed contact was Robert Dobson, Contract Specialist, reachable by phone at 303-987-6988.
