Opportunity Summary:
This posting is a National Park Service (NPS), U.S. Department of the Interior notice stating the agency's intent to make a single cooperative agreement award for a specific project in the Boston Harbor Islands National Recreation Area: restoring the water supply to Georges Island. The key point of the announcement is that it is not a call for proposals. Instead, it serves as formal public notice that NPS plans to fund a defined scope of work through a non-competitive action tied to an existing relationship with a named partner.
The opportunity is listed under Funding Opportunity Number NPS 10 NERO 0045 and carries the title "Boston Harbor Islands National Recreational Area restore water supply to Georges Island." It is categorized as a mandatory opportunity and uses a Cooperative Agreement as the funding instrument, reflecting that the work is intended to be carried out collaboratively rather than as a standard procurement contract. The funding activity category is labeled "Other," with the clarification that the purpose is specifically to restore the water supply to Georges Island, which is one of the park area's primary visitor destinations and includes significant historic resources.
Rather than opening competition, NPS states it intends to fund project activities through Task Agreement J1727100014 under an already-established Cooperative Agreement (H1727100008) with the Boston Harbor Island Alliance. In practical terms, that means NPS has already identified the partner organization and the administrative vehicle through which the funds will be issued. Announcements like this are typically used when the agency determines that full and open competition is not required or not appropriate for the action, and it publishes the notice to maintain transparency about how federal funds will be distributed.
The total funding amount is fixed at $99,565, and both the award ceiling and floor are listed as exactly $99,565, indicating a single, set-dollar award rather than a range. The expected number of awards is one. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not expected to contribute a required financial match as a condition of the award. The eligible applicant category shown is nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), which aligns with the identified cooperator in the notice.
Timeline-wise, the opportunity was posted and created on September 14, 2010, with an original and current closing date of September 19, 2010, and it was archived on September 20, 2010. Because this is not a request for applications, the closing date functions more as a posting window for public notice than as a deadline for competitive submissions. The announcement directs readers to consult the attachment under the full announcement link for complete details, which is where the specific project scope, justification, and administrative terms would normally be documented.
For questions or issues accessing the full announcement electronically, the contact listed is Jennifer Fleming, Contract/Agreements Specialist, at 215-597-6476, associated with Boston Harbor Islands.
