Opportunity Summary:
The "American Trails cooperative agreement" opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOI WASOP12AC30724) is a discretionary National Park Service (NPS) funding notice in the environment category. It was posted on June 19, 2012 and is explicitly labeled as a Notice of Intent (NOI), meaning it is not an open call for proposals and is not asking the public to submit applications. Instead, the NPS is signaling its plan to make a single cooperative agreement award to a specific organization, American Trails, for work that supports and promotes the National Trails System and its components.
The planned award is structured as a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates a relationship where the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement in carrying out the funded activities, as opposed to a standard grant where the recipient typically operates more independently. The notice anticipates one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $100,000. The award ceiling is also $100,000, the floor is listed as $0, and there is no cost-sharing or matching requirement indicated for this effort. The associated CFDA number is 15.954, titled "National Park Service Conservation, Protection, Outreach, and Education," which aligns with the stated purpose of promoting a national system of trails and related outreach.
Eligibility is listed as nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education). However, because the document is a Notice of Intent to award to American Trails rather than a competitive solicitation, the eligibility listing does not function as an invitation for other nonprofits to apply. The original and current closing date are both June 25, 2012, and the archive date is July 25, 2012, reflecting the limited administrative window for this type of announcement rather than an extended application period.
For questions or issues accessing the announcement, the listed point of contact is Sybil Winfield, NPS Contracting Officer, reachable at 303-969-2076 or by email at sybilwinfield@nps.gov.
