Opportunity Summary:
The opportunity titled "Documentation of Historic Sites in the Lower Columbia River Region" (Funding Opportunity Number P15AC00060) is issued by the National Park Service under CFDA 15.946, Cultural Resources Management. Despite appearing in the format of a grant posting, it is explicitly not an open funding opportunity and is not soliciting applications from the public. Instead, it is a Notice of Intent to make a single-source award to one specific organization, Clatsop Community College, citing the authority in 505 DM 2 (4) based on that entity's unique qualifications. In practical terms, this means the agency has already identified the recipient and is publishing the notice for transparency and public record rather than competition.
The planned award instrument is a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates that the National Park Service expects to have substantial involvement in the project compared to a standard grant. The work falls under cultural resource management and protection, with an emphasis on documenting historic sites in the Lower Columbia River region. While the short description does not list individual tasks or deliverables, documentation efforts in this context typically involve systematic identification and recording of historic or cultural resources, compilation of field and archival research, and preparation of written and photographic records suitable for management, interpretation, or preservation planning.
Only one award was anticipated. The posting lists an estimated total funding amount of 1 dollar, but also provides an award ceiling of 59,973 dollars and an award floor of 39,982 dollars, which indicates the expected agreement value was intended to fall within that approximate range even though the estimated total is shown as a placeholder. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement noted. The eligible applicant category is listed as public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, aligning with the identified single-source recipient.
Key dates in the notice include a posted date and creation date of November 21, 2014, with an original and current closing date of December 1, 2014, and an archive date of December 31, 2014. Because this was a single-source Notice of Intent rather than a competitive solicitation, the "closing date" functions more as an administrative window for the notice period than as an application deadline.
For parties seeking access to the full announcement or experiencing difficulty retrieving it electronically, the listed point of contact was Susan Velie, Contract Specialist, reachable at 360-565-3114, associated with Olympic National Park (MABO).
