Opportunity Summary:

The National Park Service (NPS), within the U.S. Department of the Interior, issued a Notice of Intent to Award for a continuation effort titled "Eight mile Wild and Scenic River" (Funding Opportunity Number: NPS 13 NERO 0131). This notice is not a request for applications and is not an open, competitive funding opportunity. Instead, it serves as a public notification that NPS intends to provide funding without full and open competition, specifically as a modification to continue ongoing work under an existing cooperative agreement.

The project is structured as a Cooperative Agreement and falls under the Environment and Natural Resources activity category. It is a continuation action tied to Cooperative Agreement P09AC00193 (previously H4506090132) and is intended to support continued project activities with the Lyme Land Conservation Trust (LLCT). The notice indicates that full details of the work to be continued are contained in an attachment referenced in the full announcement materials.

Funding for this continuation is set at a total of $56,000, with an award floor and ceiling both listed as $56,000, signaling a single, fixed-dollar award rather than a range. The announcement anticipates one award. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement indicated. The CFDA listing associated with the opportunity is 15.921, Rivers, Trails and Conservation Assistance, which typically relates to technical and partnership support for conservation, recreation, and river-related community projects.

Eligibility is listed as nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), but because this is a continuation and a non-competitive intent to award tied to a specific existing cooperative agreement, the practical recipient is the named cooperator, Lyme Land Conservation Trust. The opportunity was posted on August 24, 2013, with an original and current closing date of August 28, 2013, and it was archived on August 29, 2013.

For access issues related to the full announcement attachment, the notice provides a point of contact: Dawn Mach, Contract Specialist, at 215-597-0056. The notice references the Eight mile River in connection with the Wild and Scenic River effort, consistent with NPS partnership work supporting protection, stewardship, and related conservation activities in designated or eligible river corridors.
