Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS), within the U.S. Department of the Interior, issued a public "Notice of Intent to Award" for a project titled "Lower East Side Tenement National Historic Site." This announcement is not a request for applications and is not a competitive grant solicitation. Instead, it serves as formal notice that the NPS intended to provide continuation funding to an existing partner through a noncompetitive process. The funding would be added by modifying an existing cooperative agreement, specifically Cooperative Agreement H1811070014, rather than creating a new open application cycle.
The opportunity is identified by Funding Opportunity Number NPS 11 NERO 0002 and is categorized as continuation funding using a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument. The activity category is listed as "Environment," which in NPS contexts often covers resource stewardship, preservation, interpretation, and related public benefit work tied to a park unit or affiliated historic site. The announcement indicated a single expected award, reflecting the noncompetitive, directed nature of the action.
Financially, the total estimated funding was $171,000, with both the award ceiling and award floor set at $171,000, meaning the intended modification amount was fixed rather than a range. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement stated. Eligibility was limited to nonprofits with IRS 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), consistent with many NPS partnership arrangements where a specific nonprofit partner supports interpretive, preservation, educational, or visitor-service activities aligned with NPS mission needs.
In terms of timing, the notice was posted and created on November 3, 2010, with an original and current closing date of November 8, 2010, and an archive date of November 9, 2010. Those dates function more as administrative posting and recordkeeping milestones than a true application window, since the notice explicitly states it is not soliciting proposals.
For additional details, the notice directs readers to consult the attachment available under the "Full Announcement" section on the posting site. Anyone unable to access the announcement electronically was instructed to contact Dawn Mach, Contract Specialist, at 215-597-0056.
