Opportunity Summary:
The Lamprey Wild and Scenic River Assistance opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS 10 NERO 0047) is a National Park Service (NPS) notice stating the agency's intent to make an award under a cooperative agreement, but it is not an open call for applications. In practical terms, this announcement functions as a transparency posting rather than a competitive grant competition. The NPS is providing public notice that it plans to fund specific project activities by issuing Modification 0004 to an existing cooperative agreement, identified as H4507060064, with the Lamprey River Watershed Association. Because the funding is being issued without full and open competition, the notice is mainly for public record and compliance, not for soliciting new proposals.
The award instrument is a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates that the federal agency expects to be substantially involved in the supported work (for example, coordination, technical input, or joint planning) rather than simply providing funds with minimal federal engagement. The program is categorized under the Environment funding activity area. The total amount listed is $300,000, and both the award floor and ceiling are also $300,000, meaning the intended funding amount is fixed at that level for this action. The NPS anticipated making a single award, consistent with the fact that the action is tied to a specific existing partner and agreement rather than being competed among multiple applicants. No cost sharing or matching funds are required based on the posting.
Eligibility is listed as nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education), which aligns with the named cooperator, the Lamprey River Watershed Association. Even though eligibility language is included in the standard listing fields, the substance of the notice makes clear that this is not a situation where eligible organizations can apply and be considered, since the NPS is announcing an intent to fund a particular entity via an amendment to an existing agreement. The posting and closing dates are very short (posted September 15, 2010; closing September 20, 2010; archived September 21, 2010), which also reflects that it is a notice-of-intent posting rather than an application window for a competitive program.
For anyone looking for the specifics of what activities are being supported under the modification, the announcement directs readers to the attachment available under the "Full Announcement" link on Grants.gov. The listed contact for access issues and related questions is Jennifer Fleming, Contract/Agreements Specialist, reachable by phone at 215-597-6476.
