Opportunity Summary:
The opportunity titled "Develop and Implement Two Workshops for National Heritage Area (NHA) Staff" is a National Park Service (NPS) discretionary funding action released by the U.S. Department of the Interior. It is published as a formal Notice of Intent to Award, meaning it is not an open, competitive grant solicitation and it is not asking the public to submit applications. Instead, the notice serves as a transparency posting to inform the public that NPS plans to provide funding for a specific set of project activities through an existing partnership mechanism.
In practical terms, NPS indicates it intends to make a non-competitive award by issuing a task agreement under an already-established Cooperative Agreement (identified as H4506090868) with the Association of Partners for Public Lands, Inc. (APPL). The stated purpose of the funded work is to develop and implement two workshops designed for National Heritage Area staff. While the summary text does not describe the workshop curriculum, audience size, locations, or learning objectives, the title and category information make clear the effort is meant to support capacity-building or professional development for NHA personnel within the National Heritage Area program.
The funding instrument is a Cooperative Agreement, which typically signals an arrangement where the federal agency anticipates substantial involvement in the project compared with a standard grant. The program alignment is explicitly tied to the National Heritage Area assistance listing under CFDA number 15.939 (National Heritage Area Federal Financial Assistance). The activity category is labeled "Other," with the explanation pointing again to National Heritage Areas, reinforcing that the work is specialized and program-specific rather than belonging to a common grant category like construction, research, or law enforcement.
Financially, the notice indicates a single expected award with an estimated total funding amount of $46,500. The award floor and award ceiling are both listed as $46,500, which effectively means the planned award amount is fixed rather than a range. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement associated with this action, so the recipient is not expected to contribute a defined percentage of non-federal funds as a condition of the award.
Eligibility is listed as nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education). However, because this is a Notice of Intent to Award tied to a specific existing cooperative agreement with APPL, the eligibility listing does not function as an invitation for broader applicants; it is more a classification of the recipient type consistent with the intended awardee. The posting dates show it was posted on September 6, 2011, with an original and current closing date of September 11, 2011, and it was archived on September 12, 2011, reflecting how notices are time-stamped and closed out in Grants.gov even when they are not application-based competitions.
For anyone seeking the full details, the notice instructs readers to review the attachment available through the "Full Announcement" link on Grants.gov, which is where the specific scope of work and justification for limiting competition would ordinarily be documented. The point of contact provided for access issues is Jennifer Fleming, Contract/Agreements Specialist at the National Park Service, reachable by phone at 215-597-6476.
