Opportunity Summary:
The Lamprey Wild and Scenic River Assistance opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS 13 NERO 123) is a National Park Service (NPS), U.S. Department of the Interior notice stating the agency's intent to make a continuation award under an existing cooperative agreement. It is explicitly labeled as a NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD and also clearly states that it is not a request for applications, meaning the public should not interpret it as an open, competitive grant competition. Instead, it serves as a transparency notice that NPS plans to fund specific project work without full and open competition.
This action is described as a modification to continue projects being carried out under Cooperative Agreement P11AC40845 with the Lamprey River Watershed Association. In practical terms, that indicates the federal agency and the named partner already have an established agreement and workplan, and this announcement is documenting an additional increment of support to keep that ongoing work moving forward. The opportunity is categorized as continuation funding and uses a cooperative agreement instrument, which typically implies NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the funded activities compared with a standard grant.
The opportunity falls under the environment activity category and is associated with CFDA (Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance) number 15.921, Rivers, Trails and Conservation Assistance. The estimated total funding amount is $84,000, and the listing shows the award ceiling and floor are both $84,000, signaling that NPS anticipated a single award in that exact amount rather than a range of possible awards. The number of expected awards is listed as one, consistent with the sole identified cooperator (the Lamprey River Watershed Association). The posting date and creation date are both August 15, 2013, with an original and current closing date of August 20, 2013, and an archive date of August 21, 2013, reflecting that this was a time-bound public notice rather than a window for competing submissions.
Eligibility in the source data is described as nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education). Even though that category is included in the record, the core message of the announcement is that this specific funding action is intended to proceed noncompetitively as a continuation with the existing partner under the referenced agreement. The announcement also notes there is no cost sharing or matching requirement.
For anyone needing the complete details, NPS directed readers to the attachment under the "Full Announcement" section (as referenced in the notice). If there were problems accessing the materials electronically, the contact person listed was Dawn Mach, Contract Specialist, reachable by phone at 215-597-0056.
