Opportunity Summary:

The Fire/EMS Protection Svcs SMFPD opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOI H8141110018) was a National Park Service cooperative agreement intended to put a long-term solution in place for emergency response coverage in the Marin Headlands and Fort Baker areas. The need for this agreement was driven by the closure of the Marin Headlands firehouse located across from Rodeo Beach, which ceased operations on November 10, 2010. With that station no longer available, the National Park Service sought to ensure uninterrupted fire protection and emergency medical services for visitors, residents, staff, and facilities in those park areas by formalizing a long-term service arrangement.

The agreement was structured as a Cooperative Agreement under an “Other” funding activity category, with the clarification that the principal objective was to benefit the public by implementing a sustained plan for Fire/EMS service delivery. The only expected award was a single agreement, reflecting that this was a targeted partnership rather than a competitive, multi-recipient grant program. Eligibility was limited to special district governments, which aligns with the named service provider, the Southern Marin Fire Protection District, as the local fire and EMS authority positioned to take on coverage responsibilities for the affected National Park Service lands.

Total funding for the project was set at an estimated $400,000, and both the award ceiling and award floor were also $400,000, indicating a fixed award amount rather than a variable range. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning the recipient was not expected to contribute additional non-federal funds as a condition of the award. The opportunity was posted and created on February 7, 2011, with an original and current closing date of February 18, 2011, and it was archived on March 7, 2011, suggesting a short application window consistent with a specific, time-sensitive service continuity need.

For reference and administrative context, the listing included CFDA number 15.915 (Technical Preservation Services), and the point of contact for access issues or questions about the announcement was Colleen Broussard Perry, Contract Specialist with the National Park Service (phone 916-561-4792, email colleenbroussard perry@nps.gov).
