Opportunity Summary:

The grant opportunity titled "Assess and Report on economic impact of Federal Historic Tax Credits" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOI WASOP12AC30728) is a National Park Service (NPS) discretionary funding notice in the environment activity category. It was posted on June 19, 2012, with a closing date of June 25, 2012, and later archived on July 25, 2012. The key point is that this announcement is explicitly a Notice of Intent (NOI), meaning it is not an open solicitation or a standard request for applications. Instead, it communicates NPS's intention to make a single cooperative agreement award to a specific institution.

NPS indicates it plans to award one cooperative agreement to Rutgers University in New Jersey, which is an eligible applicant type under this notice (public and state-controlled institutions of higher education). The purpose of the cooperative agreement is to assess and report annually on the economic impact and other benefits of the Federal Historic Tax Credits for fiscal years 2012 and 2013. The work is to be conducted using an input-output economic model developed by Rutgers, suggesting the project will rely on established economic modeling methods to estimate outcomes such as jobs supported, labor income, value added, and other measures commonly produced by input-output frameworks when analyzing spending and investment effects.

The total estimated funding for the project is $20,000, and the award ceiling is also $20,000, with no stated minimum award amount (award floor of $0). There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement. The funding is associated with CFDA number 15.954, "National Park Service Conservation, Protection, Outreach, and Education," which signals that the project is intended to support NPS program goals related to conservation and public benefit, in this case through quantifying the impacts of a federal incentive that supports preservation and rehabilitation of historic properties.

Because this is a planned cooperative agreement rather than a competitive call, the notice functions mainly as a public disclosure of NPS's intent to partner with Rutgers to produce annual reporting for FY12 and FY13 on the Federal Historic Tax Credit program's impacts. For administrative or access issues related to the full announcement, the listed point of contact is Sybil Winfield, Contract Specialist, at 303-969-2076 or sybilwinfield@nps.gov.
