Opportunity Summary:

The Baltimore National Heritage Area Develop Management Plan opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS 11 NERO 0020) is a National Park Service notice of intent to award funding, not a competitive grant solicitation. In practical terms, it is not asking the public to submit applications. Instead, the National Park Service (U.S. Department of the Interior) is publishing formal public notice that it intends to provide additional funding for specific project activities related to the Baltimore National Heritage Area, and that it plans to do so without full and open competition.

The funding is structured as a cooperative agreement under an existing cooperative agreement already in place (Cooperative Agreement H4506090868) with the Association of Partners for Public Lands. The mechanism described is an added task agreement that would provide supplemental funds to support the development of a management plan for the Baltimore National Heritage Area. Because the award is being made against an existing agreement and through a non-competitive process, the notice functions mainly as transparency documentation rather than an invitation for new applicants.

Financially, the announcement lists an estimated total funding amount of $150,000, with an award floor and award ceiling both set at $150,000, indicating a single, fixed award amount rather than a range. The expected number of awards is one. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement. The assistance listing is tied to CFDA 15.939 (National Heritage Area), and the funding activity category is identified as "Other," clarified as National Heritage Area work.

Eligibility is shown as nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), but given the nature of the notice of intent and the reference to a specific existing cooperative agreement partner, this eligibility statement is largely informational and does not imply an open competition. The posting date is January 6, 2011, with an original and current closing date of January 11, 2011, and an archive date of January 12, 2011, reflecting the short public notice window typical of intent-to-award postings rather than a normal application period.

For anyone needing the full details behind the intent-to-award decision, the announcement directs readers to an attachment available via the Full Announcement link on Grants.gov. For access issues or questions specific to obtaining the announcement materials, the listed contact is Jennifer Fleming, Contract/Agreements Specialist at the National Park Service, phone 215-597-6476. For general Grants.gov navigation or generic grants information, the posting points users to the standard "Contact Us" resources on the Grants.gov site.
