Opportunity Summary:

This grant opportunity is a National Park Service (NPS), North Cascades National Park (NOCA) notice of intent to make a single-source award for a new five-year Cooperative Agreement with the Ebeys Landing National Historical Reserve Trust Board. The announcement is mainly a public notification that NOCA plans to continue an existing, legally authorized management arrangement rather than open a competitive funding process. In practical terms, it supports ongoing joint administration of Ebeys Landing, a distinctive National Park System unit known for its patchwork of public and private lands and the need to balance resource protection with the local communitys historic rural landscape and living community.

Ebeys Landing National Historical Reserve is managed through a partnership model built on an Interlocal Agreement among four core Reserve partners: the National Park Service, Island County, Washington State Parks, and the Town of Coupeville. Under that interlocal structure, day-to-day administration is assigned to a nine-member Trust Board that represents the interests of the participating governments. This Reserve is notable because it was the first NPS unit specifically authorized to delegate management of NPS-acquired lands to another governmental entity. The Trust Board hires a Reserve Manager and staff to run daily operations, while NPS personnel provide technical assistance as authorized by the Reserve enabling law.

The Cooperative Agreement described here continues the transfer of management and administrative responsibilities over NPS-owned lands and interests in land within the Reserve, along with related program functions, to the Trust Board. The legal foundation is the National Parks and Recreation Act, Public Law 95-625 (Section 508(a), enacted November 10, 1978), which established the Reserve and explicitly allows the Secretary of the Interior to transfer management and administration of acquired property to the state or an appropriate local government unit through a cooperative agreement. The notice explains that after local ordinances were adopted to protect the historic and rural character of lands inside the Reserve boundary, NPS used prior cooperative agreements to transfer those responsibilities as envisioned by the law, and this new agreement is meant to keep that framework in place.

Programmatically, the agreement is tied to long-range planning and shared operational responsibilities laid out in the Reserves 2007 General Management Plan and Environmental Impact Statement (EIS). That plan sets broad management, operational, and development goals for roughly a 15 to 20 year horizon, and includes expectations for shared staffing and coordinated operations. The cooperative work supported under this agreement includes management planning, land protection efforts, and the design and delivery of programs and activities that protect and preserve the Reserves natural, cultural, and scenic resources while still allowing appropriate public enjoyment. A recurring theme in the description is collaboration that respects local interests, values, and aspirations, which is essential in a reserve where private property, working landscapes, and community identity are central to the places character.

Administratively, the posting lists the funding instrument as a Cooperative Agreement (rather than a standard grant), reflecting an arrangement where NPS remains actively involved through technical assistance and ongoing coordination. It is categorized as "Other" and described as a notice of intent to award a single-source agreement. Only one award is expected. Cost sharing or matching is indicated as required. The listing shows an estimated total funding amount of 0, which often signals that the notice is primarily procedural (to document intent and authority) and that actual funding levels may be set through the agreement terms, annual task agreements, or subsequent modifications rather than being stated in the synopsis.

Key posting details include Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOI NOCA H9290110001 and title "Ebeys Landing National Historical Reserve." The opportunity was posted October 20, 2010, with an original and current closing date of October 22, 2010, and it was archived October 25, 2010. Eligibility is effectively limited because it is a single-source intent notice, with the Ebeys Landing National Historical Reserve Trust Board identified as the recipient entity. For questions or trouble accessing the full announcement, the contact listed is Barry Fetzer, Contract Specialist/Contracting Officer at North Cascades National Park, phone 360-854-7219.
