Opportunity Summary:

The National Park Service (NPS) funding opportunity titled "Cooperative Agreement for Essential Facilities for Park Admnistration and Visitor Urse" (Funding Opportunity Number: NPS NOIPWR P12AC30157) is a discretionary grant action that is being issued as a notice of intent rather than an open solicitation. In practical terms, it is not inviting the public to apply and it should not be read as a competitive grant announcement. Instead, it formally communicates the NPS plan to make a single, non-competitive cooperative agreement award to a specific recipient: the County of Mariposa, which is listed as the eligible applicant type (county governments).

The award instrument is a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates that the NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the funded work compared with a standard grant. The activity category is Natural Resources, and the associated CFDA (Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance) number is 15.944, Natural Resource Stewardship. While the title references essential facilities supporting park administration and visitor use, the notice itself does not provide additional project scope details beyond signaling that the funding is intended to support facilities connected to park operations and serving visitors.

In terms of funding scale and anticipated output, the announcement expects one award (Expected Awards: 1). The award amount range is defined with an award floor of $146,462 and an award ceiling of $350,000. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning the recipient is not required by this announcement to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the award.

The timeline included in the public notice shows a very short posting window, consistent with a notice of intent for a directed, non-competitive action. The opportunity was posted and created on February 17, 2012, with an original and current closing date of February 21, 2012, and it was archived on February 22, 2012. Because the notice is not a request for applications, the closing date functions more as an administrative posting period rather than an application deadline for potential new applicants.

For official questions or issues accessing the full announcement, the listed point of contact is Lilette Baltodano, Financial Agreements Specialist, reachable by phone at 415-623-2251.
