Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS) posted a Notice of Intent to Award for a project titled "Catoctin Mountain Park Trail Rehabilitation" (Funding Opportunity Number: NPS NOI CATO R3200100024). This notice is strictly for public information and transparency purposes. It is not a request for applications and does not invite proposals or competition. Instead, it serves to announce NPSs intention to fund a specific trail rehabilitation activity at Catoctin Mountain Park in Thurmont, Maryland.
The planned award is structured as a cooperative agreement under the discretionary funding category, with the work falling within the Natural Resources funding activity area. The opportunity is tied to CFDA 15.931, "Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations," which typically supports conservation and stewardship work performed through youth-focused conservation corps or similar service organizations. Consistent with that program area, the notice identifies the intended eligible recipient as the Student Conservation Association, indicating this is effectively a targeted, non-competitive intent to fund that organization for the described work.
NPS anticipated making one award with a total value of $26,682. The award floor and ceiling are both listed as $26,682, meaning the intended funding amount is fixed rather than a range. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement associated with this award, so the recipient would not be expected to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of the agreement.
The notice was posted and created on June 8, 2010, with an original and current closing date of June 11, 2010, and an archive date of July 11, 2010. The short posting window reflects the nature of the announcement as a notice of intent rather than an open solicitation. For questions or assistance accessing the full announcement, the listed NPS contact is Rita Oliver, Contract Specialist, at 301-432-7890 or ritaoliver@nps.gov.
