Opportunity Summary:

This notice is a National Park Service (NPS), U.S. Department of the Interior announcement stating an intent to award funding related to the project titled "BOST - Faneuil Hall." It is explicitly not a request for applications, meaning the NPS is not seeking proposals from the public and there is no competitive application process. Instead, the purpose of the posting is to provide public notice that the NPS plans to proceed with a specific agreement action without full and open competition.

The action described is a modification (Modification 0002) to an existing cooperative agreement, identified as Cooperative Agreement P11AC91330. The intended cooperator is the City of Boston, and the modification will add funds to that already-established agreement. In practical terms, this typically means the NPS and the City of Boston are continuing or expanding ongoing work connected to Faneuil Hall under an existing partnership arrangement, rather than initiating a new grant competition.

The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates substantial involvement by the federal agency in the funded activities (as compared with a standard grant). The activity focus is categorized under "Other," clarified as historical preservation, rehabilitation, interpretation, and operations of a historic site. This points to project work that may include preserving and maintaining historic resources, rehabilitating or repairing elements of the site, supporting visitor interpretation and educational programming, and covering operational activities necessary to manage the historic property in alignment with NPS goals.

The opportunity is listed under CFDA number 15.946, Cultural Resources Management, tying the funding to federal support for managing and preserving cultural and historic resources. It also notes a cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning the recipient (here, the City of Boston) is expected to contribute a portion of project costs or resources according to the terms of the cooperative agreement, rather than relying solely on federal dollars.

In terms of funding scale and awards, the posting indicates a single expected award with a total estimated funding amount of $72,228. Both the award ceiling and floor are listed as $72,228, which signals that the modification amount is fixed rather than a range. Eligibility is limited to city or township governments, consistent with the named recipient being the City of Boston.

The notice was posted on September 3, 2014, with an original and current closing date of September 7, 2014, and an archive date of September 8, 2014. Those dates mainly reflect the public notice window for the intent to award rather than an application deadline, since applications are not being accepted. For full details, the announcement directs readers to an attachment under the full announcement section (not included in the text provided). For assistance accessing the full announcement, the listed contact is Dawn Mach, Contract Specialist, at 215-597-0056.
