Opportunity Information: Apply for P19AS00344
The funding opportunity titled "Interactions among vegetation and fluvial geomorphic processes al" (Funding Opportunity Number P19AS00344) is a National Park Service (NPS) discretionary funding action under the U.S. Department of the Interior. It is structured as a cooperative agreement, which typically means the NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the work as it is carried out, such as collaboration on study design, coordination with park units, data management expectations, or joint interpretation and application of results.
This notice is not a standard competitive solicitation. The posting explicitly states that no applications are being requested because it is a Notice of Intent to Award to Colorado State University under an existing Master Agreement (P17AC00971). In practical terms, that means the agency has already identified the recipient and is proceeding with an award action tied to an established partnership framework, rather than seeking proposals from the broader research community. The eligible applicant category listed is public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, which is consistent with the intended recipient being a public university.
The activity category is Natural Resources (CFDA 15.945), indicating the project aligns with NPS resource stewardship and science priorities. While the title is brief, it signals a research focus on how vegetation interacts with river-driven geomorphic processes, such as channel formation and adjustment, bank stabilization or erosion, sediment transport and deposition, floodplain development, and how plant establishment and succession can influence (and be influenced by) flow regimes and disturbance events. Projects of this type commonly support park management by improving understanding of river corridor dynamics, informing restoration or rehabilitation strategies, anticipating responses to floods, drought, wildfire, or invasive species, and guiding decisions about protecting infrastructure and cultural or natural resources within riparian environments.
The anticipated funding level is modest and clearly defined, with an award ceiling of $46,529 and an expected number of awards of one. The opportunity record was created on July 2, 2019, and the original closing date field reflects that applications were not requested, reinforcing that this is an administrative posting associated with a pre-identified award rather than an open call.Apply for P19AS00344
