Opportunity Information: Apply for P19AS00621
The National Park Service (NPS), within the U.S. Department of the Interior, issued a Notice of Intent to Award for a project focused on the status and future risks facing sugar pine in the Sierra Nevada. The project is titled "Assessment of the current condition and future vulnerability of sugar pine in the Sierra Nevada: Evaluating the drivers of change in a declining species." This notice is essentially a public transparency posting explaining that NPS plans to fund specific work through a cooperative agreement, and it is not a call for proposals or an open competition.
The opportunity is listed as a discretionary funding action using a Cooperative Agreement as the funding instrument, meaning the NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the work rather than simply issuing a standard grant with minimal agency participation. The funding activity falls under Natural Resources, and the associated CFDA (Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance) number is 15.935, which corresponds to National Park Service related assistance programs. The award information indicates an expected single award with a maximum amount (award ceiling) of $59,972.
Rather than being open to a broad pool of applicants, this action is directed to a specific partner organization. The intended recipient is the Regents of the University of California, Berkeley, operating under the California Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CALI-CESU). CESUs are established networks designed to facilitate collaboration between federal agencies and academic institutions, and this project is being issued under the existing cooperative and joint venture agreement referenced as NPS-CALI-CESU-2018. The specific cooperative agreement identified in the notice is P19AC01249, and the funding opportunity number tied to the posting is P19AS00621.
In practical terms, the purpose of the project is to evaluate why sugar pine, a species described here as declining, is changing in the Sierra Nevada and to determine how vulnerable it may be in the future. The title signals two main themes: first, documenting current condition (for example, present distribution, health, or other indicators of status), and second, assessing future vulnerability by examining the drivers behind observed decline and change. While the notice does not lay out a detailed workplan in the text provided, the framing suggests an applied assessment intended to inform management or conservation decisions relevant to NPS units and other Sierra Nevada land managers.
The posting date (creation date) is September 24, 2019. The "closing date" is listed in a way that reinforces the main point of the notice: there is no application period because this is not a request for applications. Instead, it serves as a formal public statement that the NPS intends to make a sole award, without full and open competition, to UC Berkeley through the CALI-CESU partnership structure for the sugar pine assessment project.Apply for P19AS00621
