Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "List of Classified Structure Update for Chesapeake and Ohio Canal NHP and George Washington Memorial Parkway NP" is a National Park Service (NPS) discretionary funding action focused on cultural resources work. The purpose is to produce an update to the List of Classified Structures (LCS) for two NPS units: Chesapeake and Ohio Canal National Historical Park and George Washington Memorial Parkway National Park. The LCS is the National Park Service inventory system used to track and manage information about historic and other significant park structures, so an update typically involves verifying existing records, correcting and standardizing data, and ensuring the inventory accurately reflects current conditions and management needs for those assets.
This notice is not a competitive funding opportunity and it is not requesting applications from the public. Instead, it is a Notice of Intent for a single-source, noncompetitive award, issued under Department of the Interior policy (DOI 505 DM 2.12C). The NPS indicates the work will be carried out through a task agreement under the National Park Service Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) network, using a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument. CESU agreements are commonly used by NPS to partner with universities and other qualified entities on research, technical assistance, and resource management projects, particularly when specialized expertise is needed and when collaboration with academic partners supports federal resource stewardship goals.
The award is expected to be made as one cooperative agreement with an estimated total funding amount of $80,000. The announcement lists an expected number of awards of 1, and it specifies that there is no cost sharing or matching requirement. Although the opportunity is categorized as "Other" in the funding activity category, the explanation clarifies that the work falls under cultural resources, which aligns with the LCS focus on built resources and historic structures. The CFDA program reference provided is 15.945, Cooperative Research and Training Programs - Resources of the National Park System.
Eligibility is limited because the NPS states this is a single-source award specifically to the University of Maryland, College Park, Maryland. In practical terms, that means no other applicants are eligible to compete for this funding, and the posting functions mainly as a public notification of the agency's intent to make a noncompetitive award rather than an open solicitation.
The posting dates show it was published on September 6, 2011, with an original and current closing date of September 9, 2011, and an archive date of October 9, 2011. Anyone who had trouble accessing the full announcement was directed to contact Rita Mihalik, Contract Specialist, at 301-432-7890 or ritamihalik@nps.gov.
