Opportunity Summary:
The Champlain Quadricentennial Outreach and Programs opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS 10 NERO 0026) was a National Park Service notice posted by the U.S. Department of the Interior in July 2010 to publicly document the agency's intent to make a specific award. Importantly, the announcement explicitly stated that it was not a request for applications. In other words, it was not an open, competitive grant where organizations could submit proposals; it functioned as a transparency notice that the NPS planned to fund identified project activities through an existing arrangement rather than through full and open competition.
The funding mechanism was a cooperative agreement categorized under an environmental funding activity area, with an expected number of awards listed as one. The NPS indicated its intent to provide a total of $175,000, and the award floor and ceiling were both set at $175,000, signaling a fixed planned amount rather than a range. There was no cost-sharing or matching requirement, meaning the recipient was not expected to contribute a required percentage of non-federal funds to receive the award.
This notice was tied to a specific modification (Modification 0002) to an existing task agreement, identified as Task Agreement J181808A023, with the cooperator named as The New England Interstate Water Pollution Control Commission. The practical meaning is that the NPS planned to continue or adjust previously established work under that task agreement, and the notice served to inform the public that the work would be funded through that pre-identified partner without a competitive solicitation process.
The announcement listed eligible applicants generally as nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), but because the notice was not open for competition, the eligibility language did not translate into an opportunity for new applicants to apply. The posting timeline reflects that purpose as well: it was posted on July 16, 2010, had a very short window to the listed closing date of July 21, 2010, and was archived on July 22, 2010, consistent with an administrative notice rather than a standard competitive grant cycle.
For anyone trying to access the full details, the notice directed readers to the attachment under the Full Announcement section on Grants.gov. The listed point of contact for difficulties accessing the announcement was Jennifer Fleming, Contract/Agreements Specialist at the National Park Service, reachable by phone at 215-597-6476.
