Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS), part of the U.S. Department of the Interior, issued a Notice of Intent to Award for a project titled "Cooperative Agreement for Essential Facilities for Park Administration and Visitor use." The key point is that this announcement is not a request for applications and not an open competition. Instead, it serves as a public notice that NPS intends to provide funding to a specific partner without full and open competitive procedures, using a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument. The identified recipient is Yosemite Management Group, LLC, under Cooperative Agreement P15AC00150.
This opportunity is listed on Grants.gov under Funding Opportunity Number P15AS00039 and is categorized as a discretionary award. The activity category is Natural Resources, and the associated CFDA (Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance) number is 15.944, Natural Resource Stewardship. NPS anticipated making one award, reflecting the sole-recipient nature of the notice. Although the eligible applicant category is listed as for-profit organizations other than small businesses, the structure of the announcement makes clear that NPS is not seeking additional proposals because the intent is to fund a predefined set of project activities with a designated organization.
The total estimated funding amount is $753,352, and the award ceiling is also $753,352, indicating the award was expected to be at or up to that level. The award floor is listed as $100,445, which typically reflects the minimum anticipated award size within the opportunity record even though only one award is expected. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement identified, meaning the recipient is not required by the opportunity listing to provide a non-federal match as a condition of the award.
In terms of timing, the opportunity record was posted and created on January 30, 2015, and it was archived on February 5, 2015. Both the original and current closing dates state "This is not a request for applications," which reinforces that the notice is informational rather than a competitive solicitation. For additional details, the listing points to an additional information link on Grants.gov, and provides a contact for access issues or questions: Lilette Baltodano, Financial Agreements Officer, reachable at 415-623-2251 or lilettebaltodano@nps.gov.
