Opportunity Summary:
The Corridor/Greenway Trail Rehabilitation opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPSNOIGRCA1600029) is a National Park Service (NPS) discretionary funding action under the U.S. Department of the Interior (DOI-NPS). It is categorized under Natural Resources and uses a Cooperative Agreement as the funding instrument. The associated CFDA program number is 15.931. The listing was created and posted on November 13, 2015, with a closing date of November 30, 2015.
This notice is explicitly labeled as a "Notice of Intent to Award," meaning it is not a request for applications and is not announcing an open competition. Instead, it serves as public notice that the National Park Service plans to make a non-competitive award through a task agreement for work related to corridor/greenway trail rehabilitation. In practical terms, that means the agency had already identified the intended recipient and project approach, and the posting is primarily for transparency rather than to solicit new proposals.
The eligible applicant type referenced is nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education). The announcement indicates an expectation of one award. The listed award ceiling is $0, which typically suggests that the funding amount was not provided in the public synopsis, was to be determined within the task agreement, or was otherwise omitted from the public posting rather than implying the project would receive no funding.
Overall, this is a informational, non-competitive NPS cooperative agreement notice for a single anticipated partner to carry out rehabilitation work on a corridor or greenway trail, published to meet public notice requirements rather than to invite applications.
