Opportunity Summary:
This grant notice is a National Park Service (NPS) "Notice of Intent to Award" for a specific project titled "Marsh Billings Rockefeller NHP Innovation Transfer and Organizational Learning Implications for Collaborative Conservation and Youth Engagement in Public Sector Settings." The key point is that it is not an open funding competition and not a request for applications. Instead, the NPS is publicly documenting its intention to fund a pre-identified set of project activities through a task agreement issued under an existing cooperative agreement, meaning the recipient and the basic partnership framework are already established.
The planned award is structured as a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates a relationship where the NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the project rather than simply providing funds and stepping back. The work is framed around education, with an emphasis on understanding how innovation is transferred and how organizational learning happens in public sector contexts, specifically as it relates to collaborative conservation efforts and strategies for engaging youth. In practical terms, the project appears aimed at generating knowledge, lessons learned, and usable insights that can help parks and public agencies work more effectively with partners and young people in conservation-related programming.
Funding details are very specific and fixed. The total estimated funding is $76,000, and both the award ceiling and floor are also $76,000, which signals that the NPS anticipated a single award at that exact amount rather than a range of possible budgets. The notice lists an expected number of awards of one and states there is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not required to contribute additional non-federal funds as a condition of the award.
Although the listing includes an eligible applicant category (nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status, other than institutions of higher education), the body of the notice makes clear the intended cooperator is the University of Vermont and State Agricultural College, and the funding would be executed through Task Agreement J1818100040 under Cooperative Agreement H1818080010. That combination of details reinforces that this is a directed award tied to an existing agreement vehicle rather than a general opportunity for new applicants. The posting date is September 14, 2010, with an original and current closing date of September 19, 2010, and an archive date of September 20, 2010, reflecting a short public notice window typical of intent-to-award postings.
