Opportunity Summary:
This notice describes a National Park Service (NPS) discretionary funding action titled "Importance of Cape Cod National Seashore to Staging Endangered Roseate Terns." It is published as a Notice of Intent to Award, meaning it is not an open solicitation and not a request for applications. Instead, the NPS is informing the public that it intends to fund a specific set of project activities through a cooperative agreement without full and open competition.
The opportunity is listed under Funding Opportunity Number NPS 14 NERO 0037 and is associated with CFDA 15.945, Cooperative Research and Training Programs - Resources of the National Park System. The project focus, as indicated by the title, is research and/or related activities aimed at understanding the importance of Cape Cod National Seashore as a staging area for endangered roseate terns. In wildlife conservation, "staging" generally refers to the period when migratory birds congregate in a particular area to rest and feed before continuing migration, so the work implied here centers on the role the Seashore plays in supporting this endangered species during that critical phase. Because the announcement is an intent to award rather than a competitive call, it signals that the NPS likely has a specific partner or recipient in mind to carry out the work under cooperative agreement terms, which typically involve substantial involvement by the federal agency in project coordination, oversight, or shared responsibilities.
The notice anticipates a single award (Expected Awards: 1). The total funding amount is fixed, with both the award ceiling and award floor listed as $26,927, indicating the NPS expects to make one award at that exact amount rather than a range of possible award sizes. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not expected to provide additional non-federal funds as a condition of the award. The funding instrument type is a cooperative agreement, and the activity category is labeled "Other" with an explanation clarifying that this posting is strictly a Notice of Intent to Award.
Key dates show the announcement was posted and created on June 5, 2014, with an original and current closing date of June 10, 2014, and an archive date of June 11, 2014. In the context of a notice like this, the "closing date" does not function like an application deadline for competing applicants; it is more of an administrative posting window for public notice purposes.
Eligibility is listed broadly as "Others," but the eligibility section reiterates that this is not a request for applications and that the NPS intends to proceed without full and open competition. In practice, that means interested parties should not expect an opportunity to submit a proposal under this posting, since it is primarily about transparency around a planned non-competitive award.
For questions or help accessing the full announcement, the listed contact is Patrick Reidy, Grants Management Specialist, reachable by phone at 215-597-5949, with an NPS email referenced for electronic contact.
