Opportunity Summary:
The "Johnstown Area preservation and heritage" opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS 10 NERO 0014) is a National Park Service notice published by the U.S. Department of the Interior to announce the agency's intent to award funding for specific project activities tied to preservation and heritage work in the Johnstown area. It is explicitly described as a "Notice of Intent to Award," meaning it is not an open call and not a request for applications. Instead, its purpose is to provide public transparency that the NPS plans to provide funding without full and open competition through a modification (Modification 0002) to an existing cooperative agreement, identified as Cooperative Agreement H4130070013, with the Johnstown Area Heritage Association.
The funding mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates a partnership-style award where the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement in the supported activities, rather than simply issuing a hands-off grant. The activity category is listed under "Environment," aligning with National Park Service work that often blends cultural resource protection, historic preservation, interpretation, and public heritage education. The notice anticipates a single award (Expected Awards: 1), and it does not require cost sharing or matching funds, so the recipient is not expected to contribute a formal match to receive the federal amount.
Financially, the announcement is very specific and fixed: the estimated total funding is $45,000, and both the award ceiling and award floor are also $45,000. That indicates the NPS intended a single, predetermined award amount rather than a competitive range of possible award sizes. The eligibility category listed is "Nonprofits having a 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, other than institutions of higher education," but because this is not an application-based opportunity, that eligibility detail mainly reflects the type of organization the identified cooperator is, not an invitation for other nonprofits to apply.
Timing details further reinforce that this is a notice rather than a competition. The opportunity was posted and created on June 21, 2010, with an original and current closing date of June 26, 2010, and an archive date of July 26, 2010. Those short dates are typical for administrative notices of intent to award, where the agency posts a brief public notice period rather than holding a full application cycle. Anyone seeking more detail is directed to the attachment referenced under the "Full Announcement" section, and for access issues, the contact person listed is Jennifer Fleming, Contract/Agreements Specialist, at 215-597-6476 (email referenced but not fully shown in the provided text).
