Opportunity Summary:

The National Park Service (NPS) issued a discretionary funding opportunity titled "Conduct hiking clubs at City of Albuquerque managed Community Centers" (Funding Opportunity Number NPSNOIPETR120103). The announcement functions as a notice of intent to award a single cooperative agreement to the City of Albuquerque Parks and Recreation Department. The purpose is to support the operation of hiking clubs hosted through City of Albuquerque managed community centers, specifically those located in low-income neighborhoods. In practical terms, the project is aimed at expanding access to outdoor and conservation-related experiences for community members who may face barriers to participating in such activities, using existing neighborhood-based community centers as the program hub.

The funding mechanism identified is a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates an award where the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement in carrying out the project, as opposed to a standard grant where the recipient operates more independently. The activity category is listed as Education, and the CFDA number attached is 15.931, "Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations," signaling the program's alignment with conservation education and youth or community engagement in outdoor recreation. The opportunity anticipates one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $25,294. No cost sharing or matching funds are required, which lowers the financial barrier for the recipient organization.

Eligibility is effectively limited by design. While the general field for eligible applicants is broad ("Others"), the eligibility narrative clarifies that this notice is specifically intended for the City of Albuquerque Parks and Recreation Department. This type of announcement is commonly used when an agency has identified a particular partner for a project based on mission fit, existing capacity, location, or established relationships, and is notifying the public of its intent to proceed with that award.

Key dates show that this was a very short-lived posting. It was posted and created on April 5, 2012, with an original and current closing date of April 6, 2012, and it was archived on April 7, 2012. The award ceiling and floor are both listed as $0, which typically reflects a data-entry convention in certain listings rather than indicating no funding, since the estimated total funding amount is clearly stated as $25,294.

For questions or access issues related to the full announcement, the listed point of contact is Trish Fresquez Hernandez, Contract Specialist, reachable by phone at 505-988-6122. The funding agency is the National Park Service.
