Opportunity Summary:

The grant opportunity titled "COOPERATIVE AGREEMENT WITH SAN FRANCISCO FIRE DEPT" (Funding Opportunity Number H8141100033) is a National Park Service cooperative agreement intended to fund emergency fire protection services for the Presidio of San Francisco. The purpose is straightforward: the NPS is arranging for the City and County of San Francisco Fire Department to provide emergency fire protection coverage to the Presidio, and the funding amount is tied to the estimated number of operational hours needed to deliver that service.

This notice is categorized as "Other" both for the opportunity category and the funding activity category, with the category explanation clarifying that it specifically concerns Presidio of San Francisco emergency fire protection services. The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates an arrangement where the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement in the supported activity, rather than simply issuing a pass-through grant with minimal federal participation. In practical terms here, it signals an ongoing service relationship for public safety coverage at a federally managed site.

The opportunity is explicitly identified as a sole source cooperative agreement between the National Park Service and the City and County of San Francisco Fire Department. Because it is sole source, it is not being competed in the normal way and does not function like an open application process for the general public. The posting and closing language both emphasize that the agreement is specifically with the San Francisco Fire Department for servicing the Presidio, which aligns with the eligible applicant types listed: city or township governments and county governments. The expected number of awards is one, reflecting the sole-source nature and the intended single recipient.

Financially, the estimated total funding is listed as $756,875, with the award floor and award ceiling both set at $756,875. That means the anticipated award amount is fixed at that value rather than being a range. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not expected to provide a defined matching contribution as a condition of the award.

The opportunity was posted on January 7, 2011, with a creation date of February 7, 2011, and an archive date of February 7, 2011, indicating it is an older, archived notice tied to a specific service arrangement rather than a recurring competitive grant cycle. For access issues or additional details, the point of contact provided is Fred Picavet, Contract Specialist, reachable by phone at 916-561-4797 or by email at fredpicavet@nps.gov.
