Opportunity Summary:
This notice is a National Park Service (NPS) announcement about an existing cooperative agreement, not an open grant competition. It states that NPS and the Delaware and Lehigh National Heritage Corridor, Inc. have already entered into a task agreement to carry out work supporting the Delaware and Lehigh National Heritage Corridor (a National Heritage Area). Because it is not a request for applications or inquiries, there is no competitive application process associated with this posting, and the named cooperator is the intended recipient under the agreement.
The agreement’s purpose is to fund and guide the cooperator’s work in supporting the National Heritage Area in a way that aligns with the authorizing legislation and the FY2013 work plan. Key responsibilities for the cooperator include implementing the corridor’s Management Plan consistent with the agreement terms and the legislation, holding public meetings at least twice per year to discuss Management Plan implementation, and meeting all applicable state and federal legal requirements. The notice specifically calls out compliance with laws such as the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA). In addition, the cooperator is responsible for preparing any required compliance documentation for review and approval by NPS and/or the state, as applicable.
From a funding and administrative standpoint, the opportunity is listed as a mandatory cooperative agreement under CFDA 15.939 (National Heritage Area Federal Financial Assistance). The posting indicates there will be one award with total estimated funding of $540,000, and both the award floor and ceiling are set at $540,000, meaning the amount is fixed for this action. Cost sharing or matching is required. The eligible applicant type is described as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit (excluding institutions of higher education), which matches the identified partner organization named in the announcement. The opportunity was posted on August 6, 2013, with an original and current closing date of August 10, 2013, and an archive date of August 11, 2013, reflecting that it is a time-bounded public notice rather than an open solicitation.
