Opportunity Information: Apply for NPSNOIMOCA1700986 0001
The grant notice titled "Repair Historic Irrigation Ditch at Montezuma Well, Montezuma Castle NM" is a National Park Service (NPS) funding announcement intended primarily as a public notification rather than a call for new applications. It was issued by the Department of the Interior, National Park Service, and relates to work at Montezuma Well within Montezuma Castle National Monument. The activity is categorized under Natural Resources and uses a cooperative agreement funding instrument, indicating that the NPS expects to have substantial involvement in carrying out the project rather than simply issuing a hands-off grant.
A key point in the description is that the announcement explicitly states it is not a request for applications. Instead, it serves to inform the public that the NPS plans to make a modification to an already existing task agreement. That task agreement sits under a master cooperative agreement that was either previously competed or justified as a single-source arrangement. In practical terms, this means the work is not being opened up for competitive bidding through this notice, and the NPS is signaling its intent to add, extend, or otherwise adjust the scope, funding, or terms of an agreement that is already in place.
The opportunity is identified by Funding Opportunity Number NPSNOIMOCA1700986 0001 and was created on November 14, 2017, with an original closing date listed as November 24, 2017. Even though a closing date is provided, the text makes clear that the usual purpose of such a date in an open competition does not apply here, since no new proposals are being solicited. The expected number of awards is one, consistent with a modification to a single existing agreement rather than multiple competitive awards.
Eligibility is listed as nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education). While this eligibility category is included in the data, the intent language indicates that the recipient is effectively pre-identified through the existing master cooperative agreement and task agreement structure. The award ceiling is shown as 0, which typically signals that a specific incremental funding amount is not being announced in this notice, or that the modification amount is handled administratively within the existing agreement rather than published as a new maximum award figure.
Overall, the notice is best understood as a transparency step: it documents that the NPS intends to proceed with a cooperative agreement modification connected to repairing a historic irrigation ditch at Montezuma Well, and it provides the public with basic administrative details (title, number, agency, instrument type, category, eligibility listing, and timing) without inviting new applicants to compete for the work.Apply for NPSNOIMOCA1700986 0001
