Opportunity Summary:
The "Morman Pioneer National Heritage Area" grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOI R1264120005) was a National Park Service (NPS) financial assistance award intended to support the designated managing entity for the Morman Pioneer National Heritage Area. The purpose of the funding was to provide federal assistance consistent with the authorizing legislation, Public Law 109-338, Title D, which governs how this National Heritage Area is supported and administered. The opportunity sits within the natural resources funding activity category and uses a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument, meaning the NPS would typically expect to have substantial involvement in the funded activities, such as coordination, oversight, or partnership roles as the work is carried out.
This was a mandatory, single-award action with an expected number of awards listed as one. Importantly, it was not a competitive solicitation and not a request for applications. Instead, it was a single-source award directed specifically to the Utah Heritage Highway 89 Alliance, identified as the management entity for the Heritage Area. Because of that structure, the usual open eligibility considerations do not apply in the same way they would for a competitive grant program; the listing clarifies eligibility under "Others," but also explicitly states the recipient entity in the eligibility information.
The estimated total funding amount associated with this opportunity was $1,475,000. No cost sharing or matching requirement was indicated, so the recipient was not expected to provide a non-federal match as a condition of the award based on the posted summary. The notice did not specify an award ceiling or floor (both shown as zero), which commonly appears in systems where the precise award amount is controlled through the single-source agreement and budget rather than through a competitive range.
Key dates show that the opportunity was posted and created on March 9, 2012, with an original and current closing date of March 16, 2012, and an archive date of April 15, 2012. These dates reinforce that this was an administrative notice tied to a planned single-source cooperative agreement rather than a long open application window intended for multiple applicants. The CFDA number listed is 15.939, which corresponds to National Heritage Area federal financial assistance.
For administrative or access issues related to the full announcement, the listed point of contact was Kristin ONeil, Contract Specialist, reachable by phone at 970-586-1236.
