Opportunity Summary:

Improve Conditions for Ongoing Storage Use in Battery Wallace Phase II (Funding Opportunity Number: NPS NOI P11AT01116) is a National Park Service discretionary grant opportunity structured as a cooperative agreement. The purpose of the award is to support a specific Phase II effort focused on improving conditions for ongoing storage use in Battery Wallace, while advancing broader National Park Service goals tied to museum collections management and public engagement. At its core, the project is meant to strengthen the continued research, interpretation, and care of park museum collections, and to do so in a way that also builds joint programs that actively involve youth and the public in ongoing stewardship of cultural resources.

The opportunity is designed as a collaborative partnership between the National Park Service and the Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy. The description makes clear that the intent is not simply facility-related work in isolation, but work that contributes to responsible collections care and interpretation, paired with educational and stewardship-oriented programming. Because it is a cooperative agreement, the National Park Service is expected to be substantially involved in the project beyond standard grant oversight, reflecting a more hands-on collaboration with the recipient.

Funding is limited and narrowly scoped. The estimated total funding is $45,000, with an award ceiling of $45,000 and an award floor of $1, and the agency anticipates making a single award. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement listed for this opportunity. The funding activity category is identified under Arts (referencing Cultural Affairs in the CFDA context), which aligns with museum collections, interpretation, and preservation-related outcomes.

Eligibility is also narrowly defined. While the eligible applicant category is listed as nonprofits that do not have 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education), the eligibility information specifies that this action is a single source award to the Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy. In practical terms, that means the opportunity was not a broad, open competition; it was intended for a specific partner organization.

The timeline for the posting and closing was extremely short. The opportunity was posted on May 27, 2011, created the same day, and had an original and current closing date of May 30, 2011. It was later archived on June 29, 2011, indicating it is no longer active and was time-bound to that 2011 period.
