Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity is a National Park Service (NPS) "Notice of Intent to Award," meaning it is not an open, competitive funding solicitation and it is not asking the public to submit applications. Instead, it serves as a formal public notice that the NPS planned to issue funding through a cooperative agreement to a specific partner, the Keslers Cross Lanes Volunteer Fire Department, without full and open competition. The overall purpose is to strengthen rural fire assistance and fire protection capacity connected to NPS-managed areas, specifically the lands associated with New River Gorge National River and Gauley River National Recreation Area.
The funding vehicle identified is a Cooperative Agreement (listed as H4780100013), which typically indicates the federal agency expects to remain substantially involved in the work, such as coordinating activities, setting technical expectations, or collaborating on planning and implementation rather than simply issuing a standard grant with minimal federal participation. The award was framed under the activity category "Other," clarified as "Rural Fire Assistance," which signals the focus is on improving local fire response and protection capabilities in rural settings that directly affect federal lands and nearby communities.
Financially, the opportunity listed a total estimated funding amount of $26,000, with an award floor and ceiling both set at $26,000, indicating a single award at a fixed amount rather than a range. Only one award was expected. The posting also notes that cost sharing or matching was required, meaning the recipient would need to contribute a defined portion of project costs or provide qualifying in-kind support as part of the agreement terms. The eligible applicant type shown is "City or township governments," but the notice itself specifies the intended cooperator as the Keslers Cross Lanes Volunteer Fire Department, reflecting that the announcement is tied to a predetermined partner arrangement rather than a broad eligibility-based competition.
In terms of timing, the notice was posted on September 23, 2010, with an original and current closing date of September 28, 2010, and an archive date of September 29, 2010. Those dates function more as administrative milestones for the public notice record than a true application window, since the notice explicitly states it is not a request for applications. Anyone needing the complete details was directed to review the attachment under the full announcement link on Grants.gov, and the listed point of contact for access issues was Jennifer Fleming, Contract/Agreements Specialist at the National Park Service, with a phone number provided (215-597-6476).
