Opportunity Summary:
The Visitor Survey Project (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIWASOJ2370106506) is a National Park Service discretionary funding opportunity focused on continuing and supporting the Visitor Survey and Visitor Card Program across National Park units. The core purpose is to keep ongoing survey and visitor card efforts operating at individual parks, generating consistent information about visitor experiences and characteristics that can be used to inform park management, planning, and resource protection decisions. The work is framed as continued effort rather than a brand-new initiative, emphasizing maintaining and advancing established data collection activities at National Park Service sites.
This opportunity is offered as a cooperative agreement under the Natural Resources funding activity category, with an expected single award. The estimated total funding amount is $466,478, which also serves as the award ceiling, while the award floor is listed as $0. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement indicated, meaning applicants are not required to provide a financial match as a condition of receiving the award.
Eligibility is limited to public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, signaling that the National Park Service intends to partner with an academic institution capable of carrying out survey design, administration, data management, analysis, and reporting functions consistent with national park visitor research needs. The agreement will be implemented through a task agreement under the Rocky Mountain Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU), which is a partnership framework commonly used by the Department of the Interior and universities to accomplish research, technical assistance, and related applied science work.
The announcement specifies that this is a non-competitive award, made in accordance with Department of Interior policy (Department Manual 505 DM 2). In practice, that means the agency is not conducting an open competition among multiple applicants for selection; instead, the award is intended to be issued directly under the CESU mechanism consistent with the cited policy authority.
Key dates in the posting show it was posted and created on June 23, 2010, with an original and current closing date of June 25, 2010, and an archive date of July 25, 2010. For assistance accessing the full announcement, the listed point of contact is Robert Dobson, Contract Specialist, at 303-987-6988.
