Opportunity Summary:
The Weed Management and Restoration grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number P12AC10551) was a discretionary funding action issued by the National Park Service under the agriculture activity category. It was tied to CFDA 15.931, Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations, which generally supports on-the-ground conservation work that can involve youth or service-based crews carrying out resource management projects. In this case, the focus was weed management and ecological restoration, meaning the funded work would typically include activities such as controlling invasive or noxious plant species and helping native vegetation and habitat recover, often through field-based treatments and follow-up monitoring.
This particular announcement was not an open, competitive solicitation. The posting explicitly states that the task agreement had already been awarded to The Great Basin Institute, so the "closing date" fields and eligibility language reflect that the decision had been made prior to or at the time of public posting. As a result, while the listing appears in the format of a standard federal funding notice, it effectively served as a public record of an award rather than a request for new applications from other organizations.
The award was structured as an "Other" funding instrument type, with an expected number of awards listed as one. The estimated total funding was $52,000, and both the award ceiling and floor were also $52,000, indicating a single, fixed-size award rather than a range of possible award amounts. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient was not required to provide a non-federal match to receive or use the funds.
The opportunity was posted and created on June 15, 2012, and it was archived on June 16, 2012, which is consistent with a notice that is primarily informational because the award was already finalized. For administrative or access issues related to the full announcement, the contact listed was Barbara Eschels, Supervisory Contract Specialist, reachable by phone at 702-293-8909. No additional information link was provided in the source data.
