Opportunity Summary:

This notice comes from the U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service (NPS), and it is specifically a "Notice of Intent to Award," meaning it is not an open call and not a request for applications. In other words, the NPS is publicly announcing that it plans to move forward with a pre-identified partner under a cooperative agreement, rather than running a competitive grant process. The intended agreement is Cooperative Agreement P14AC01710 with the Lower Eastside Tenement Museum, Inc., and the announcement notes that the full details of the project activities are contained in an attachment referenced in the full announcement.

The purpose of the funding is tied to federal authority under Public Law 105-378, Sections 104(a) and 104(b). The stated goal is to provide technical and financial assistance to support the Museum's work to mark, interpret, and preserve the Lower Eastside Tenement Historic Site. This includes preservation-related capital improvements and repairs, which suggests the funding is meant to support tangible preservation needs along with interpretive or educational efforts connected to the historic site. The funding activity category is listed as "Other," clarified by the description emphasizing preservation, interpretation, and site-related improvements.

The opportunity is listed under Funding Opportunity Number NPS 14 NERO 0148 and is associated with CFDA Number 15.954, which covers National Park Service activities related to conservation, protection, outreach, and education. The total estimated funding is $25,000, and both the award ceiling and award floor are also $25,000, indicating a single fixed-size award rather than a range of possible award amounts. The announcement anticipates one award in total, and there is no cost-sharing or matching requirement.

Eligibility is described in general terms as nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education). However, because this is a notice of intent to award without full and open competition, the practical effect is that the award is intended for the named cooperator, Lower Eastside Tenement Museum, Inc., rather than being broadly available to otherwise eligible nonprofits.

Key dates show the posting and creation date as September 12, 2014, with an original and current closing date of September 17, 2014, and an archive date of September 18, 2014. Those dates function more as an administrative timeline for the public notice than as an application deadline, since the announcement explicitly states it is not soliciting applications.

For questions or help accessing the full announcement materials electronically, the listed contact is Dawn Mach, Contract Specialist, reachable by phone at 215-597-0056. The opportunity relates to the Lower Eastside Tenement Historic Site, and the overall intent is to support preservation and interpretive work through a cooperative agreement arrangement between NPS and the Lower Eastside Tenement Museum.
