Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "Custom rehabilitation of 1915 American LaFrance Fire Truck" (Funding Opportunity Number NPSNOILYJO1400510) is a National Park Service discretionary funding notice describing the agency's intent to make a single cooperative agreement award to support the custom rehabilitation of a historic 1915 American LaFrance fire truck. The funding activity is listed under "Other," with the category explanation clarifying that the project is specifically focused on the rehabilitation work for this particular vehicle. In practical terms, this notice is not framed as an open, competitive solicitation; it is a Notice of Intent indicating the National Park Service plans to fund a specific partner for a defined preservation-related project.
The planned recipient identified in the eligibility information is the Texas Fire Museum, and the opportunity states directly that the cooperative agreement is intended for that organization to carry out the custom rehabilitation. No cost sharing or matching requirement is indicated, meaning the notice does not require the recipient to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of the award. The opportunity anticipates one award total, with estimated total federal funding of $50,000. The listing shows an award ceiling and award floor of $0, which commonly appears in older postings when the precise structure is handled through the agreement terms rather than standard ceiling/floor fields, but the estimated total funding amount provides the clearest indicator of the intended federal support level.
From an administrative standpoint, the opportunity was posted on May 3, 2014, created on May 2, 2014, and carried a very short application window, with an original and current closing date of May 6, 2014, followed by an archive date of May 7, 2014. The CFDA program number associated with the funding is 15.954, "National Park Service Conservation, Protection, Outreach, and Education," which aligns the project with NPS preservation and public heritage priorities, even though the work itself centers on a fire apparatus rather than a typical building or landscape preservation effort. The funding instrument is explicitly a cooperative agreement, which generally signals that the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement during the project, such as technical coordination, oversight, or collaboration on deliverables, rather than simply issuing a grant with minimal ongoing federal participation.
The issuing agency is the National Park Service, and the description repeated across the announcement emphasizes the same core purpose: custom rehabilitation of the 1915 American LaFrance fire truck through a cooperative agreement with the Texas Fire Museum. For questions or access issues related to the full announcement, the listed point of contact is Trish Fresquez Hernandez, Contract Specialist, reachable by phone at 505-988-6122.
