Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS) posted a discretionary funding notice titled "Memorandum of Understanding for Carbon River Corridor Management Plan" under Funding Opportunity Number R9450120004. The purpose of the notice is narrowly defined: it serves as a public announcement of NPS intent to provide funding for the development of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) connected to the Carbon River Corridor Management Plan. The announcement explicitly states that it is not a request for applications, meaning it is not being issued as an open competition where multiple organizations submit proposals for review. Instead, it functions as an intent-to-award style notice, typically used when an agency plans to support a specific project and is providing transparency to the public about that planned funding action.
The award mechanism listed is a Cooperative Agreement, which generally indicates that NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the project’s execution (as opposed to a standard grant where the recipient operates more independently). The funding activity category is Natural Resources, and the CFDA program reference is 15.944, Natural Resource Stewardship, placing the work within NPS stewardship, planning, and resource management responsibilities. Only one award is anticipated, with an estimated total funding amount of $30,000. The award ceiling is also $30,000, and the award floor is $0, which signals that the agency set a maximum amount available for this action while not guaranteeing a minimum beyond what might be negotiated or finalized in the agreement.
Eligibility is limited to nonprofits that hold 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, excluding institutions of higher education. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient would not be expected to provide a defined financial match as a condition of the award. The notice was posted and created on May 7, 2012, with an original and current closing date of May 13, 2012, and it was archived on June 12, 2012. Those short dates align with the idea that this is not an open application window, but rather a time-bounded public notice associated with an intended award action.
For administrative questions or help accessing the full announcement, the contact listed is Susan Velie, Contract Specialist, at Olympic National Park Financial Assistance, reachable by phone at 360-565-3114.
