Opportunity Information: Apply for P19AS00602
This notice describes a National Park Service (NPS) intent to make a single, non-competitive cooperative agreement award for cultural resource support work related to abandoned mineral lands (AML) closure areas at Death Valley National Park. It is explicitly not a request for applications, meaning the NPS is not seeking proposals from the public; instead, it is publishing the announcement to provide transparency that it plans to fund specific project activities with a named partner.
The opportunity is listed as a discretionary award using a Cooperative Agreement funding instrument, which typically indicates the NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the project (such as coordination, oversight, or collaboration on methods and deliverables) rather than simply issuing a grant with minimal federal participation. The work falls under the broad activity category of "Other," suggesting the project does not fit neatly into more common grant categories and is defined by the specialized nature of cultural resource assistance tied to mine closure actions.
The NPS intends to fund Cooperative Agreement P19AC01203 with Sonoma State University. Sonoma State is identified as a partner under the Californian Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CALI CESU) framework, specifically under the cooperative and joint venture agreement NPS-CALI-CESU-2018. CESU partnerships are used by federal agencies to collaborate with universities and other partners on research, technical assistance, and resource management needs, and they often serve as a mechanism to efficiently engage qualified academic expertise for projects like cultural surveys, documentation, and compliance support.
Financially, the notice indicates an award ceiling of $34,700 and an expectation of one award, reinforcing that this is a targeted, single-recipient action rather than a competitive funding opportunity. The opportunity number is P19AS00602, and it is associated with CFDA number 15.945, which corresponds to National Park Service programs. The posting date (creation date) is September 10, 2019, and the "closing date" field reiterates that there is no application deadline because applications are not being accepted.
In practical terms, the project title, "Conduct Cultural Resource Assistance of Abandoned Mineral Lands Closure Area at Death Valley National Park," signals that the funded work supports NPS responsibilities to identify, evaluate, and protect cultural resources potentially affected by abandoned mine land closure or related safety and remediation actions. While the notice does not list tasks in detail, cultural resource assistance in this context commonly includes activities like background research, field inventories and surveys, site documentation, GIS mapping, condition assessments, and support for compliance with federal cultural resource laws and policies (for example, National Historic Preservation Act-related steps) as the park plans and executes AML closures.
Eligibility is listed as public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, which aligns with the intended recipient being a state university. However, because the award is being made without full and open competition and the notice is only for public awareness, other eligible institutions are not being invited to apply through this posting.Apply for P19AS00602
