Opportunity Summary:
The Musconetcong River Conservation grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS 10 NERO 0009) was a National Park Service (NPS), U.S. Department of the Interior notice of intent to award funding for environmental conservation work focused on the Musconetcong River. Rather than being an open, competitive solicitation, the announcement served mainly as a public notification that the NPS intended to provide funding through a specific existing cooperative agreement, identified as Cooperative Agreement H4507080205, via a modification labeled "Modification 0002." In practical terms, this means the agency planned to continue or adjust an ongoing partnership arrangement rather than solicit new proposals from the broader public.
The funding instrument type was a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates substantial federal involvement in the project compared to a standard grant. The program category was listed under "Environment," and the opportunity was marked as "Mandatory," reflecting that it was tied to a particular intended recipient and action rather than a discretionary competition. The NPS expected to make one award, and the total estimated funding was $102,000. The award ceiling and floor were both $102,000, signaling that the planned award amount was fixed rather than a range. There was no cost-sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient was not expected to provide matching funds as a condition of receiving the award.
Eligibility in the general listing was limited to nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education). However, the description clarifies that the intended cooperator and recipient was the Musconetcong Watershed Association (MWA), and the intent was to fund project activities without "full and open competition," meaning other eligible nonprofits were not actually being invited to compete for this particular award. Interested parties were directed to review an attachment in the full announcement for the specific project activities and details associated with the cooperative agreement modification.
Key timeline details show the opportunity was posted and created on June 14, 2010, with an original and current closing date of June 24, 2010, and an archive date of July 24, 2010. For access issues related to the full announcement, the listed point of contact was Jennifer Fleming, Contract/Agreements Specialist, reachable by phone at 215-597-6476.
