Opportunity Summary:

It is a formal Notice of Intent to Award issued by the National Park Service, meaning the agency is announcing that it plans to make, or has already made, a specific award to a named organization rather than inviting the public to submit applications. The posting makes this point repeatedly and plainly: no proposals are being accepted and there is no competitive application process associated with this notice.

The notice states that Task Agreement P13AC00036 has been awarded to Groundwork Cincinnati for the Mill Creek Restoration Project in the amount of $80,002.63. The eligible applicant type listed is nonprofit organizations with IRS-recognized 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), but in practical terms that eligibility language is informational only here because the recipient has already been selected and the award is already designated for Groundwork Cincinnati.
The opportunity is associated with CFDA number 15.921, Rivers, Trails and Conservation Assistance, which is a National Park Service program that typically supports community-led conservation, outdoor recreation, and river and trail-related initiatives through technical and financial assistance partnerships.
