Opportunity Summary:
This notice describes a National Park Service (NPS), U.S. Department of the Interior, intent to make a single, specific award related to the Crossroads of the American Revolution National Heritage Area. It is explicitly labeled as a Notice of Intent to Award and not a request for applications, meaning the NPS is not seeking competing proposals from the public. Instead, the announcement serves as a public transparency step to inform stakeholders that the agency plans to enter into an agreement without full and open competition.
The planned award is a Cooperative Agreement (Funding Opportunity Number NPS 12 NERO 0033) under the education activity category, tied to CFDA 15.939 (National Heritage Area Federal Financial Assistance). The NPS indicates it intends to execute Cooperative Agreement P12AC30067 with Crossroads of the American Revolution Association, Inc. This is the named cooperator and, in practical terms, the intended recipient. Although the general eligibility field lists nonprofits with IRS 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), the structure of the announcement makes clear the opportunity is effectively mandatory or directed: one award is anticipated and the recipient has already been identified.
Funding details are very specific and fixed. The estimated total funding is $147,000, and both the award floor and award ceiling are also $147,000, reinforcing that there is no range and no competitive selection for differing award sizes. The announcement also states that cost sharing or matching is required, so the recipient is expected to contribute non-federal resources (cash and/or eligible in-kind support) as part of the overall project budget, consistent with how many heritage area cooperative agreements are structured.
Key dates reflect the administrative window for the notice rather than an application period. The opportunity was posted and created on May 8, 2012, with an original and current closing date of May 13, 2012, and an archive date of May 14, 2012. Because this is not a solicitation, these dates mainly indicate how long the notice was available for public viewing before being archived, not when applications were due.
For anyone needing additional documentation, the notice points readers to an attachment under the "Full Announcement" section (referenced in the original posting) for complete details about the project activities and agreement terms. If there are problems accessing the full announcement electronically, the listed point of contact is Dawn Mach, Contract Specialist, at 215-597-0056.
