Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS) notice titled "Historic Structures Report at Pearson Air Museum, Fort Vancouver National Historic Site" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIP15AC01360) is a public announcement of the agency's intent to make a single, specific award rather than a competitive grant solicitation. Although it appears in the same systems where grant opportunities are often posted, the NPS explicitly states that this is not a Funding Opportunity. Instead, it is a Notice of Intent to award to a single source under Department of the Interior policy (DOI 505 DM 2) based on unique qualifications, and it is being processed in accordance with National Park Service financial assistance procedures (referenced as NPS FAPP 1443, 2015-06). In practice, this means the agency has identified one recipient it believes is uniquely suited to perform the work and is using this notice to document and publicly communicate that intention rather than inviting open competition.
The project focus is the preparation of a Historic Structures Report (HSR) for Pearson Air Museum, located within Fort Vancouver National Historic Site. An HSR is a key cultural resources management document used to guide preservation and rehabilitation decisions for historic buildings. These reports typically compile the building's historical background, document existing conditions, evaluate integrity and character-defining features, and recommend treatment approaches that align with preservation standards. The funding activity category is listed as "Other," clarified as Cultural Resources Management, and the relevant CFDA (Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance) program number is 15.946, also tied to Cultural Resources Management.
The award mechanism is identified as a Cooperative Agreement, which generally indicates that the NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the project during performance (as opposed to a more hands-off grant). The announcement anticipates one award with an estimated total funding amount of $26,000, and both the award ceiling and floor are also set at $26,000, signaling a fixed expected award size. No cost sharing or matching funds are required from the recipient. Eligible applicants are limited to public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, reflecting the type of partner the NPS intends to work with for this specialized preservation documentation effort.
Timing information shows the notice was posted and created on August 3, 2015, with an original and current closing date of August 13, 2015, and an archive date of September 12, 2015. Because this is a single-source notice rather than an open competition, the "closing date" functions more like an administrative window for the notice posting rather than a typical application deadline for multiple applicants.
For access issues or questions about the full announcement materials referenced in the notice (including the attached Notice of Intent form with complete details), the listed point of contact is Susan Velie, Contract Specialist, reachable by phone at 360-565-3114, based at Olympic National Park (MABO).
