Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS) published a government grant notice titled "List of Classified Structures Update for CHOH" under Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOI NCRO R3992120012. The opportunity falls under the discretionary funding category and is planned to be issued as a cooperative agreement, with the work focused on cultural resources. Based on the title and program context, the purpose is to update the List of Classified Structures (LCS) for CHOH, which refers to Chesapeake and Ohio Canal National Historical Park. The LCS is a key National Park Service cultural resource inventory used to document and track historic and other significant structures, and updates typically involve verifying existing records, revising condition and description data, and ensuring entries meet current NPS standards for cultural resource management and reporting.
This notice is not a typical open competition. It is a notice of intent to make a noncompetitive award under the Department of the Interior authority cited as 505 Departmental Manual 2.12C, which is a policy basis for making single-source awards in certain justified circumstances. The announcement states that the action will result in a task agreement under the Chesapeake Watershed Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CW CESU). CESU agreements are partnership frameworks that allow federal agencies to collaborate with universities and other partners on research, technical assistance, and similar projects, often streamlining the process for specialized work that aligns with the CESU mission.
Only one award was expected, and the estimated total funding amount was $25,000. The posting date and creation date were both August 14, 2012, with an original and current closing date of August 21, 2012, and an archive date of September 20, 2012. The funding notice lists no cost sharing or matching requirement. The award ceiling and floor are both shown as $0, which commonly appears in older listings when the system is not using those fields to define a range, while the narrative and estimated total funding provide the practical funding level.
Eligibility is explicitly limited because the announcement is not a request for applications. It identifies this as a single-source award to the University of Maryland, meaning other entities were not being solicited to apply. The listing is associated with CFDA number 15.945, described as Cooperative Research and Training Programs - Resources of the National Park System, which aligns with the cooperative and research-oriented structure of CESU work and supports NPS efforts to manage and preserve park resources.
For questions or to obtain the full announcement if there were access issues, the listed point of contact was Rita Mihalik, Contract Specialist, reachable by phone at 301-432-7890 or by email at ritamihalik@nps.gov.
