Opportunity Information: Apply for P19AS00389
Southeast Coast Network Science Support - Mod 3 (Funding Opportunity Number P19AS00389) is a National Park Service (Department of the Interior) discretionary funding action that will be awarded as a cooperative agreement under CFDA 15.945. The notice is dated July 17, 2019 and functions as a Notice of Intent to Award rather than a competitive solicitation, meaning it is not requesting applications and is being issued to publicly document the agency's plan to provide financial assistance without full and open competition. The opportunity anticipates a single award, with an award ceiling of $86,040.
The central purpose of the project is to continue funding an integrated, university-based science support center that serves the NPS Southeast Coast Inventory and Monitoring Network (SECN). The effort is designed to bolster the SECN's capacity by providing structured support from students and research associates who can assist SECN staff across a range of applied science needs. In practice, this support is meant to help the network design, develop, and carry out inventory and ecological monitoring activities, with emphasis on both terrestrial and estuarine environments across the 17 parks that make up the SECN.
The work described focuses on end-to-end program assistance, covering the early phases where projects are conceived and scoped, through later stages where field methods are implemented and monitoring becomes operational. The notice emphasizes technical and strategic support, which commonly includes helping develop monitoring protocols, assisting with data collection and management, supporting analysis and reporting, and strengthening overall program delivery so the SECN can meet its inventory and monitoring objectives more effectively.
Eligibility is limited to public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, reflecting the university-based nature of the science support center and the role of academic partners in supplying students, research associates, and scientific infrastructure. Overall, the award is positioned as continuity funding for an ongoing partnership that integrates academic capacity with NPS resource monitoring needs, specifically targeting the long-term implementation of terrestrial and estuarine inventory and monitoring work across the Southeast Coast Network parks.Apply for P19AS00389
