Opportunity Summary:
This notice describes a National Park Service (NPS) intent to make a single, non-competitive award for a natural resources research project focused on whitebark pine at Crater Lake National Park and Lassen Volcanic National Park. It is explicitly a Notice of Intent to Award rather than a call for proposals, meaning the agency is not seeking applications from the public and is instead publishing formal public notice that it plans to fund a specific partner for specific work without full and open competition.
The project is titled "Whitebark Pine Monitoring, Disease Dynamics, and Mortality History at Crater Lake and Lassen Volcanic National Parks" and is being issued as Task Agreement #P12AC10931 under an existing Cooperative Agreement (H8C07080001). The partner identified for the work is the Humboldt State University Sponsored Programs Foundation, operating through the Californian Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) network. In practical terms, this indicates the NPS intends to support research and monitoring activities related to the health, disease processes, and historical mortality patterns of whitebark pine populations within these two parks, leveraging an established university partnership structure that is commonly used for applied science, monitoring, and training collaborations on public lands.
The opportunity is categorized as discretionary funding and uses a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument, signaling that NPS expects substantial involvement in the project (such as coordinating study design, aligning methods with park monitoring needs, integrating results into management decisions, or collaborating on fieldwork and reporting). The funding activity category is Natural Resources. Only one award is anticipated, with an estimated total funding amount of $89,252, and both the award ceiling and floor are listed as $89,252, indicating a fixed planned award amount rather than a competitive range. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement stated.
Administrative details show the funding opportunity number as NPS PWRNOIP12AC10931, with CFDA listing 15.945 (Cooperative Research and Training Programs and Resources of the National Park System). The posting date is July 11, 2012, with an original and current closing date of July 13, 2012, and an archive date of August 12, 2012. Even though a closing date is provided, the notice clarifies that this is not open for applications; the short window functions more as a public notice period associated with the agency's intent to proceed with the identified partner.
For access issues or questions about the announcement, the listed point of contact is Lilette Baltodano, Financial Agreements Officer, reachable by phone at 415-623-2251.
