Opportunity Summary:
The Energy Conservation Youth Training Network, Northeast Region grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS 11 NERO 0070) is a National Park Service notice stating the agency's intent to make a single cooperative agreement award. It is explicitly labeled as a "Notice of Intent to Award" and not a request for applications, meaning the National Park Service (NPS), within the U.S. Department of the Interior, is not soliciting proposals from the public through an open competition process. Instead, the purpose of the posting is to provide transparency and public notice that NPS plans to fund specific project activities through a non-competitive award mechanism.
The planned award is structured as a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates that the federal agency expects to be substantially involved in the project compared with a standard grant. The activity category is listed as education, and the CFDA number associated with the opportunity is 15.931, Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations. While the announcement provides limited programmatic details in the text shown, the title indicates a focus on energy conservation and workforce or skills development for youth, likely through training activities that support conservation goals in the Northeast Region connected to NPS priorities.
The announcement identifies the intended recipient as the Energy Coordinating Agency (ECA) of Philadelphia, Inc., and notes that the award will be made without full and open competition. The eligible applicant type listed more generally is nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), but because the posting is not an open solicitation, other organizations are not being invited to apply.
Financially, the opportunity is small and highly specific: the estimated total funding is $32,900, with an award floor and ceiling both set at $32,900, and the expected number of awards is one. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement indicated. The posting date and creation date are both July 21, 2011, with an original and current closing date of July 26, 2011, and an archive date of July 27, 2011, reflecting the short window typical of a notice meant for public record rather than an application period.
For anyone needing access to the full announcement documentation or having trouble retrieving materials electronically, the listed point of contact is Jennifer Fleming, Contract/Agreements Specialist at the National Park Service, reachable by phone at 215-597-6476. The notice also points users to Grants.gov help resources for navigation or general grants information, even though this particular posting is not intended to generate applications.
