Opportunity Summary:
The Lower Delaware River (WSR) Watershed Protection Initiative (Funding Opportunity Number NPS 14 NERO 0075) is a National Park Service (NPS) continuation funding action under the U.S. Department of the Interior. It is published as a "Notice of Intent to Award," which means it is not an open call for applications and is not requesting proposals from the public. Instead, the notice serves to inform the public that NPS plans to move forward with adding funds to an existing cooperative agreement without full and open competition.
The funding mechanism is a Cooperative Agreement, and the specific action described is a modification to Cooperative Agreement P10AC00321 (formerly H4531100519). The named partner (cooperator) for this continuation award is the Hunterdon Land Trust, a New Jersey nonprofit corporation. In practical terms, this indicates the project work is already underway under an established agreement, and the federal agency is increasing or extending support for defined activities that fit within the scope of that existing partnership.
The opportunity is associated with CFDA (now commonly referred to as Assistance Listing) number 15.921, Rivers, Trails and Conservation Assistance, and it is categorized under Education, Environment, and Natural Resources. The announcement anticipates a single award (Expected Awards: 1), with total estimated funding of $32,070. The award ceiling and floor are both listed as $32,070, signaling a fixed funding amount rather than a range. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the federal funds are not contingent on the recipient contributing a specified share of non-federal funding.
Eligibility is listed as limited to nonprofits with IRS 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), but because this is a non-competitive continuation/sole-source style action tied to a specific existing cooperative agreement, eligibility language is largely informational rather than an invitation for new applicants. Key dates show the notice was posted July 2, 2014, with an original and current closing date of July 6, 2014, and an archive date of July 7, 2014, reflecting that this public notice period was brief and the item has long since closed.
Anyone needing help accessing the full announcement materials was directed to contact Dawn Mach, Contract Specialist, at 215-597-0056. The announcement also notes that complete project details are contained in an attachment available under the "Full Announcement" section, implying that specifics about the planned watershed protection tasks, deliverables, or work plan were provided outside the short public notice text.
