Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS), part of the U.S. Department of the Interior, issued a public Notice of Intent to Award for a project titled "Developing Chesapeake Youth Corps Network" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS 12 NERO 0044). This announcement is not an open call for proposals and is not requesting applications from the public. Instead, it serves as formal notice that the NPS plans to enter into a cooperative agreement for specific project activities without full and open competition. The intended partner for this work is the James River Association, under a task agreement to Cooperative Agreement R4250120052 (task agreement number listed as TBD in the notice). The announcement directs readers to consult the attachment in the full announcement for complete project details.
From a funding and administrative standpoint, this is categorized as a discretionary award using a cooperative agreement instrument, and it falls under the Natural Resources activity category. The notice indicates there will be one award expected, with total estimated funding of $25,000. The award amount is fixed in this posting, with an award ceiling of $25,000 and an award floor of $25,000, meaning the planned award is for exactly $25,000. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement stated for this agreement. The CFDA listing associated with the opportunity is 15.935, National Trails System Projects, which signals the program area NPS is using to support the effort.
Although the notice lists eligible applicants as nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), the practical purpose of this specific posting is not to solicit competing applications because the NPS is signaling an intention to award directly to the identified cooperator. The timeline included in the record reflects that the opportunity was posted on June 20, 2012, with an original and current closing date of June 25, 2012, and it was archived on July 25, 2012. These dates function more as administrative milestones for the public notice than as a real application window, given that the announcement explicitly states it is not a request for applications.
For assistance accessing the full announcement materials, the notice provides a point of contact: Peggy Wall, Administrative Officer, reachable by phone at 410-260-2473. The announcement also references an email contact field, though the actual email address is not included in the text provided.
