Opportunity Summary:
Building Groundwork Richmond, CA (Funding Opportunity Number P13AS00023) is a National Park Service (NPS) funding notice explaining the agency's intent to support a specific community development and environmental project through a cooperative agreement. It is important to note that the announcement is not a request for applications. Instead, it serves as a public notification that NPS plans to fund the described work without holding an open, competitive application process.
The project focuses on establishing and developing Groundwork Richmond, CA in partnership with Groundwork USA. The central purpose is community-based revitalization: engaging local residents in efforts that expand and improve access to parks, recreation opportunities, and conserved natural resources. A major theme of the work is turning underused or blighted land into community assets, specifically by transforming derelict sites into safe, productive green spaces. Through these improvements, the project also aims to support broader public benefits tied to quality of life, including public health and safety outcomes that often improve when neighborhoods gain cleaner, safer, greener places to gather and recreate.
From a funding standpoint, the opportunity is listed as discretionary and uses a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates ongoing collaboration between the federal agency and the recipient rather than a hands-off grant structure. The anticipated award count is one, with an estimated total funding amount of $62,573. The listed award ceiling is also $62,573, with an award floor of $1. The program is connected to CFDA 15.921, Rivers, Trails and Conservation Assistance, and it includes a cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning the recipient is expected to contribute non-federal resources (cash and/or in-kind support) toward the project.
Eligibility is described as limited to nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education). However, because the notice is explicitly non-competitive and not soliciting applications, this eligibility information is more contextual than actionable for prospective applicants. The posting date and creation date are March 29, 2013, with an original and current closing date of April 15, 2013, and an archive date of May 1, 2013, indicating the notice is historical and was tied to a specific planned award during that period.
For additional documentation, the announcement directs readers to the attachments available through Grants.gov, and it provides a point of contact for access issues: June Zastrow, Contract Specialist, at 303-987-6718 or JuneZastrow@nps.gov.
