Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "Continuation of physical monitoring of the Old Inlet breach, Fire Island National Seashore" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS 14 NERO 0041), is a National Park Service notice that it intends to make an award rather than an open call for proposals. The announcement is explicitly labeled a Notice of Intent to Award, meaning it is not a request for applications and is not inviting new submissions from the public. Its main purpose is transparency: it gives public notice that the National Park Service plans to fund specific project activities without full and open competition.
The funding will be provided through a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates an arrangement where the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement in the work as it is carried out, rather than simply issuing a grant and stepping back. The project falls under an "Other" activity category, with the explanation clarifying that the unusual classification is tied to the fact that this is a non-competitive intent-to-award notice rather than a standard competitive funding program. The associated CFDA (Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance) number is 15.945, listed under Cooperative Research and Training Programs and Resources of the National Park System, which aligns with monitoring and research activities that support management of national park resources.
The announcement anticipates exactly one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $174,758. The award ceiling and floor are both listed as $174,758, which strongly suggests a fixed award amount rather than a range. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not expected to provide a non-federal match as a condition of receiving the funds. Eligibility is listed broadly as "Others," but the notice repeats that it is not a request for applications, so eligibility details function more as administrative metadata than as guidance for potential applicants.
Key dates show this was posted and created on June 9, 2014, with an original and current closing date of June 13, 2014, and an archive date of June 14, 2014. In the context of an intent-to-award notice, these dates typically reflect the public posting window rather than an application deadline, since the agency is not soliciting proposals. The administering agency is the National Park Service.
For access issues or questions about the announcement, the listed contact is Patrick Reidy, Grants Management Specialist, reachable by phone at 215-597-5949, with an NPS email referenced in the contact section.
