Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS), within the U.S. Department of the Interior, issued a Notice of Intent to Award for a cooperative agreement titled "Assist in the Implementation of the Management Plan" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS 12 NERO 0071). This notice is not a request for applications and is not a competitive solicitation. Instead, it serves as formal public notification that the NPS intends to enter into a specific agreement without full and open competition. The identified cooperator for this award is the Baltimore Heritage Area Association (a nonprofit with 501(c)(3) status), under Cooperative Agreement P11AC40579.
The purpose of the award is to support project activities tied to implementing an existing management plan associated with a National Heritage Area program. The opportunity is categorized under community development as well as environment and natural resources, reflecting the typical scope of National Heritage Area work, which often blends heritage conservation, interpretation, partnerships, and community-based economic and cultural development. The assistance is provided through a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates substantial federal involvement in the project compared with a standard grant.
Funding for this action is fixed and limited to a single award. The expected number of awards is one, and the total estimated funding is $147,000, with both the award ceiling and award floor set at $147,000, meaning the award amount is predetermined. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement listed. The applicable CFDA program number is 15.939, National Heritage Area Federal Financial Assistance. The announcement was posted on July 3, 2012, with an original and current closing date of July 8, 2012, and it was archived on July 9, 2012. Because it is a notice of intent rather than an open competition, the closing date functions more as an administrative timeline for the posting and public notice period than as a deadline for applicant submissions.
Eligibility in the listing is described broadly as nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), but the practical reality of this notice is that the NPS has already selected the Baltimore Heritage Area Association as the intended recipient and is proceeding with a non-competitive award. Anyone seeking full details is directed to the attachment in the full announcement. For access issues or questions about obtaining the announcement materials, the point of contact is Keith Zotti, Partnership Program Specialist, at 215-597-9153.
