Opportunity Summary:
The "Missisquoi and Trout Wild and Scenic River Study Assistance" opportunity is a National Park Service (NPS) notice stating the agency's intent to make an award under an existing cooperative agreement, rather than opening a competitive grant competition. It is explicitly labeled as a NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD and not a request for applications, meaning outside organizations are not being invited to apply through Grants.gov. The purpose of posting is mainly transparency: NPS is publicly documenting that it plans to fund specific project work related to assistance for the Missisquoi and Trout rivers in connection with a Wild and Scenic River study effort.
This action is structured as a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates that NPS expects to be substantially involved in the project activities (for example, through coordination, technical input, or shared implementation responsibilities), as opposed to a standard grant where the recipient operates more independently. The planned award is being issued as a modification (listed as modification 0001) to an already existing cooperative agreement identified as H4506090133. The named cooperator is the Missisquoi River Basin Association, which is the intended recipient. Because it is being made "without full and open competition," it functions as a sole-source continuation or amendment to an established partnership rather than a new competitive award.
From a funding standpoint, the opportunity lists an estimated total funding amount of $62,000, with the award floor and ceiling both set at $62,000, indicating a single fixed award amount rather than a range. NPS expected to make one award. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement specified, so the recipient is not required to provide matching funds as a condition of receiving the federal support.
In terms of administrative details, the opportunity was posted on September 14, 2010, with an original and current closing date of September 19, 2010, and an archive date of September 20, 2010. Even though a closing date is shown, the notice is not an open solicitation; the date functions more like an administrative window for the public posting period. The opportunity is categorized under the environment activity area, and eligibility is listed as nonprofits with IRS 501(c)(3) status other than institutions of higher education, which aligns with the intended recipient organization type but does not change the non-competitive nature of the action described.
For anyone trying to locate full specifics on the planned project activities, the notice directs readers to the attachment available through the "Full Announcement" link. The listing also provides a point of contact for access issues: Jennifer Fleming, Contract/Agreements Specialist, at 215-597-6476.
