Opportunity Summary:

The Mormon Pioneer National Heritage Area grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIJ1264110007) was published by the National Park Service as a continuation cooperative agreement in the Education activity category. It was structured as a notice of intent rather than a standard open competition, meaning the agency signaled in advance that it planned to make a specific award under an existing National Park Service master cooperative agreement. The announcement also states the award would be made on a noncompetitive basis in accordance with DOI policy cited as 505 DM 2.12C, which is the Department of the Interior authority used to justify certain noncompetitive financial assistance actions.

The opportunity anticipated a single award, with an estimated total funding amount of $62,500. The listing shows no cost sharing or matching requirement, and it does not specify an award ceiling or floor (both are listed as $0), which typically indicates that the precise award amount and structure were governed by the related task agreement and the master cooperative agreement terms rather than a standalone competitive solicitation with predefined minimums and maximums. The associated CFDA number is 15.939 (National Heritage Area), tying the funding to federal support for National Heritage Area activities, which commonly include interpretation, education, preservation planning, partnership building, and public engagement connected to nationally significant cultural and historic landscapes.

Eligibility was limited to nonprofits with IRS 501(c)(3) status, excluding institutions of higher education. Because this was a continuation and noncompetitive action, that eligibility language is best read as describing the allowable recipient type for the intended partner organization rather than inviting multiple applicants to apply and compete. The posting date and creation date were April 12, 2011, with an original and current closing date of April 16, 2011, and an archive date of May 16, 2011, reflecting a short public notice window consistent with an intent-to-award announcement rather than a typical competitive grant cycle.

For access issues with the full announcement, the point of contact listed was Kelly Adams, Procurement Technician, reachable by phone at 303-969-2361.
