Opportunity Summary:

This notice is a public announcement from the United States Department of the Interior, National Park Service (NPS) stating its intent to make an award related to "Faneuil Hall Use." It is explicitly not a request for applications, meaning the NPS is not seeking proposals from the general public and there is no open competition for this funding. Instead, the purpose of the posting is to satisfy public-notice requirements by disclosing that the NPS plans to fund certain project activities through a noncompetitive process.

The opportunity is listed under Funding Opportunity Number NPS 16 NERO 0174 and is categorized as a discretionary award using a Cooperative Agreement as the funding instrument. A cooperative agreement typically indicates that the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement in the project after the award is made, such as participating in planning, providing technical direction, coordinating partners, or otherwise remaining actively engaged as the work is carried out. The funding activity category is broadly labeled as "Other," with the expectation that the specific nature of the activities would be clarified in the full notice or in the attached "Related Documents" referenced in the posting.

The program is associated with CFDA (Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance) number 15.946, which corresponds to National Park Service financial assistance. The notice indicates there is an anticipated single award (Expected Awards: 1) with an award ceiling of $100,000, suggesting the total federal funding for the planned agreement would not exceed that amount. Because it is a notice of intent to award rather than a solicitation, the eligible applicant field is listed generically as "Others," implying the intended recipient may be a specific organization or entity that the NPS has already identified as appropriate for the work, with further eligibility context presumably described in the additional eligibility information field or related documentation.

Key dates shown include a creation date of August 29, 2016 and an original closing date of September 7, 2016. In the context of a noncompetitive notice, the "closing date" is best understood as the end of the public-notice period on Grants.gov rather than a deadline for submitting applications, since applications are not being accepted. Anyone seeking the complete rationale for the noncompetitive approach, the identity or type of intended recipient, the scope of work, deliverables, or how "Faneuil Hall Use" is defined for this project would need to consult the full notice details via the Related Documents link referenced in the announcement.
