Opportunity Summary:

The Cultural Landscape Preservation and Education opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS 13 NERO 0111) is a National Park Service (NPS) notice of intent to award funding under the U.S. Department of the Interior. This notice is not a request for applications and is not an open competition. Instead, it serves as a public notification that NPS planned to provide continuation funding by adding funds to an existing cooperative agreement (P13AC01112) with the New England Historic organization, rather than soliciting proposals from a broad pool of applicants.

The award is structured as a cooperative agreement, which typically means NPS expected to have substantial involvement in the funded work (for example, coordination, technical guidance, or joint participation) rather than simply issuing a grant with minimal agency interaction. The activity focus falls under education, environment, and natural resources, with a specific link to cultural resources management (CFDA 15.946). In practical terms, the project scope centers on cultural landscape preservation and related educational components, though the detailed work plan was referenced as being available in an attachment within the full announcement rather than spelled out in the short notice text.

Financially, the announcement lists an estimated total funding amount of $29,990, and both the award ceiling and floor are also $29,990, indicating NPS anticipated a single, fixed-size award. The opportunity anticipated one award in total. Cost sharing or matching was required, meaning the recipient would be expected to contribute non-federal resources (cash and/or allowable in-kind contributions) toward the project, consistent with the terms of the cooperative agreement.

Eligibility is described as limited to nonprofits with IRS 501(c)(3) status, excluding institutions of higher education. However, because this was a continuation action tied to a specific existing agreement and recipient, the eligibility listing functions more as a standard classification than an invitation for new applicants. The posting date and creation date were August 9, 2013, with an original and current closing date of August 13, 2013, and an archive date of August 14, 2013, reflecting the short public notice window typical of intent-to-award announcements rather than an application period.

For additional details or access issues with the full announcement materials, the listed contact was Dawn Mach, Contract Specialist, at 215-597-0056. The notice also emphasizes that complete specifics were provided in an attachment under the full announcement, reinforcing that the public-facing posting was primarily meant to document NPS intent to fund the identified activities without full and open competition.
