Opportunity Summary:
The funding opportunity titled "Wildfire decisions and air quality 4hr online course" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIR9560120093) is a National Park Service discretionary grant action in the natural resources area, to be issued as a cooperative agreement. The purpose is to support work that results in a four-hour online course focused on wildfire decision-making and air quality, which suggests training or professional development content intended to help practitioners understand how wildfire management choices intersect with air quality considerations.
This notice is not an open competition. It is explicitly described as a notice of intent to make a noncompetitive, single-source award under the National Park Service Rocky Mountain Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU). The announcement cites the Department of the Interior policy authority at 505 Departmental Manual 2.12C as the basis for using a noncompetitive approach. In practical terms, that means the agency has already identified the intended recipient and is publishing the notice for transparency rather than inviting proposals from multiple applicants.
Only one award is expected, and the named recipient is the University of Idaho. The posting also states "This funding announcement is not a request for applications," reinforcing that other organizations should not prepare or submit applications in response to this listing. The eligible applicants field is therefore informational, with additional eligibility clarification deferred to the full announcement, but the key point is that the award is intended for a specific institution.
The estimated total funding amount for the agreement is $59,855, with no cost sharing or matching requirement. The listing shows an award ceiling and floor of $0, which typically indicates the funding amount is handled through the specific task agreement details rather than expressed as a conventional range in the public notice.
Key dates show the opportunity was posted and created on June 8, 2012, with an original and current closing date of June 13, 2012, and an archive date of July 13, 2012. The short window aligns with the fact that it is a single-source, noncompetitive action rather than a standard competitive grant cycle.
For questions or to request access to the full announcement if there are technical issues, the contact listed is Kelly Adams, Grants Management Specialist, at 303-969-2392. The CFDA number associated with this action is 15.945, which corresponds to Cooperative Research and Training Programs related to resources of the National Park System, consistent with a training deliverable like an online course developed under a CESU task agreement.
