Opportunity Summary:
The Buffalo Bill Dam grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIP13AC01108) was a National Park Service (NPS) solicitation posted on August 9, 2013, focused on supporting documentation work related to the Buffalo Bill Dam. Rather than being a brand-new standalone project, it was structured as a task agreement issued under an existing Master Agreement, meaning the work was intended to be carried out through a pre-established cooperative relationship and framework already in place with the NPS. The opportunity fell under the "Other" category and used a Cooperative Agreement as the funding instrument, which generally indicates a project where the federal agency expects to be involved in some level of coordination or collaboration during performance, as opposed to a more hands-off grant award.
Programmatically, the opportunity was aligned with natural resources and historic preservation priorities, and it referenced CFDA 15.914, which corresponds to activities associated with the National Register of Historic Places. In practical terms, that CFDA alignment suggests the effort was likely connected to preserving, recording, and maintaining documentation standards for a historically significant structure or site, in this case the Buffalo Bill Dam. The core purpose, as stated, was documentation of the dam, which often includes gathering and organizing historical and technical information, creating or updating written records, photographic or measured documentation, and producing materials that meet preservation or archival standards used by federal and preservation programs.
Financially, the NPS anticipated making a single award, with an estimated total funding amount of $46,500. The listing showed no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants were not required to contribute additional non-federal funds to be eligible. The announcement did not specify an award ceiling or floor (both listed as zero), which typically reflects that the funding level is governed by the stated total estimate and the specific task agreement scope rather than a competitive range of award sizes.
Eligibility was limited to nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status, excluding institutions of higher education. That restriction indicates the NPS was seeking participation from qualified nonprofit preservation, historical, or related organizations rather than universities or colleges. The application window was very short: it opened with the posting date of August 9, 2013, and closed on August 14, 2013, with the opportunity later archived on September 13, 2013. For applicants needing assistance accessing the full announcement, the listed point of contact was Kelvin Delaney, Contracting Officer, reachable by phone at 303-969-2796 (IMR).
