Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "Enhance Cultural Resources at Battery East Section of Bay Trail Corridor" (Funding Opportunity Number P11AT81571) was issued by the National Park Service as a discretionary funding opportunity using a cooperative agreement. Its central purpose is to support a collaborative effort between the National Park Service and the Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy to improve and protect cultural and natural resources within the Battery East portion of the Bay Trail Corridor. The work is specifically aimed at improving the condition of the nationally significant seacoast fortifications at Battery East, which are identified as a national landmark resource located at Fort Point National Historic Site. In practical terms, this opportunity is framed around stewardship and enhancement of an important historic military landscape and the surrounding corridor environment, with an emphasis on tangible improvements to resource conditions through a formal partnership arrangement.
The funding profile is narrow and clearly defined. The estimated total funding is $68,921, and the award ceiling is also $68,921, indicating the agency anticipated funding one project at a set amount rather than a range of competing proposals. The award floor is listed as $1, which is a standard technical minimum, but the structure and the single expected award make it clear the intended funding amount is the full ceiling figure. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning the recipient is not required to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of receiving the award.
Eligibility is also tightly limited. Although the listing includes "Nonprofits that do not have a 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, other than institutions of higher education" as an eligible applicant category, the eligibility note clarifies that this action is a single source award to the Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy. That means the opportunity was not designed as an open competition; it was effectively posted to document and execute a planned award to a specific partner organization, consistent with how certain cooperative agreements are administratively processed when an agency has a justified, designated partner for the work.
Timing confirms the non-competitive, administrative nature of the posting. The opportunity was posted and created on May 27, 2011, with an original and current closing date of May 30, 2011, giving a very short window. The archive date is June 29, 2011, indicating the announcement was later closed out and archived after the intended award process timeframe.
For applicants or members of the public who needed assistance accessing the full announcement at the time, the listed point of contact was Carol Axley, Contract Specialist at the National Park Service, reachable by phone at 415-561-4754 or by email at carolaxley@nps.gov.
