Opportunity Information: Apply for NPS 18 NERO 0152
The National Park Service (NPS), within the U.S. Department of the Interior, issued a public notice titled "Aquatic Resources Data Stewardship and Analysis for the New River Gorge National River, Gauley River National Recreation Area, and Bluestone National Scenic River in West Virginia." The opportunity number is NPS 18 NERO 0152, and it was created on August 21, 2018, with an original closing date of August 30, 2018. It is categorized as a discretionary funding action and uses a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument type. The activity area is environmental, and it is associated with CFDA number 15.945.
The core point of the notice is that it is not an open call for proposals and not a request for applications. Instead, it serves strictly as public notification that NPS intends to make an award as a task agreement under an existing master cooperative agreement that was either previously competed or supported by a single-source justification. In practical terms, that means NPS already has an established partner arrangement in place through a broader umbrella agreement, and this announcement is signaling NPS intent to add a specific, defined task under that pre-existing framework rather than soliciting new applications from the general public.
The proposed work scope, as reflected in the title, centers on aquatic resources data stewardship and analysis for three NPS-managed river park units in West Virginia: New River Gorge National River, Gauley River National Recreation Area, and Bluestone National Scenic River. While the notice text provided does not lay out technical deliverables in detail, the phrasing indicates support functions such as organizing, maintaining, curating, and managing aquatic datasets, along with analyzing those data to inform resource understanding and decision-making. In an NPS context, "data stewardship" typically relates to ensuring monitoring and research data are properly documented, quality-controlled, stored in accessible formats, and integrated into systems that allow staff to retrieve and use information over time, including for trend assessment, reporting, and planning.
Financially, the announcement lists an award ceiling of $89,602 and anticipates a single award (ExpectedAwards: 1). Eligibility is broadly labeled as "Others," with an instruction to consult an additional eligibility text field for clarification, but the central statement that this is not a request for applications effectively limits the relevance of general eligibility categories. Because the award is intended to be issued under an already-established cooperative framework, the practical eligible party is the entity covered by that existing master cooperative agreement (or the entity identified through the single-source justification), rather than any new applicants responding to the notice.
Overall, this posting functions as a transparency and notification step: it tells the public that NPS plans to fund one cooperative agreement task focused on managing and analyzing aquatic resources data for key river-based park units in West Virginia, up to the stated ceiling amount, without opening a competitive application process for this specific task agreement.Apply for NPS 18 NERO 0152
