Opportunity Summary:
The Cooperative Agreement for Educational Assistance (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIYOSEH8805100014) is a mandatory National Park Service funding opportunity in the education category. It was created and posted on September 22, 2010, with a closing date of September 23, 2010, and later archived on October 23, 2010. The authority for this award comes from Public Law 109-131, which explicitly authorizes the Secretary of the Interior to provide educational assistance funding to a specific recipient. Because the law names the recipient directly, this opportunity is not a typical competitive grant; it is essentially a legislatively directed award implemented through a cooperative agreement.
The funding is structured as a single expected award in the exact amount of $400,000, with both the award floor and award ceiling set at $400,000. This means the funding amount is fixed rather than a range. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not expected to provide additional non-federal funds as a condition of the award. The opportunity is listed under CFDA number 00.000 (Not Elsewhere Classified), which is sometimes used when an award does not align neatly with a standard assistance listing.
Eligibility is described as “County governments,†but the narrative description makes clear that the intended and specifically authorized recipient is the Mariposa County Unified School District. In other words, the governing statute (Public Law 109-131) directly identifies Mariposa County Unified School District as the beneficiary of the educational assistance, and the National Park Service is the administering agency responsible for carrying out that direction through a cooperative agreement mechanism.
For applicants or stakeholders who needed help accessing the full announcement at the time it was active, the listed point of contact was Lilette Baltodano, Contract Specialist, reachable by phone at 510-817-1338.
