Opportunity Summary:
The National Maritime Heritage Grant Program (Funding Opportunity Number P14AS00161) is a competitive National Park Service grant opportunity designed to support historic preservation activities tied to the nations maritime heritage. For fiscal year 2014, the program makes about $1.7 million available for projects that either educate the public about maritime history or preserve significant maritime-related historic resources. The opportunity falls under the historic preservation category and is associated with CFDA 15.946 (Cultural Resources Management). Awards are issued as grants, and recipients should expect a cost-sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants generally need to contribute non-federal resources to help cover part of the project costs.
Projects are grouped into two main tracks with different funding ranges. Education projects may request between $25,000 and $50,000, supporting efforts such as interpretive programming, curriculum and educational materials, exhibits, outreach, and other initiatives that increase public understanding of maritime heritage. Preservation projects may request between $50,000 and $200,000, typically focusing on tangible preservation outcomes such as stabilization, conservation, rehabilitation, documentation, or other work intended to safeguard historic maritime properties and resources. The maximum possible award under the announcement is $200,000 and the minimum is $25,000, reflecting these two project categories.
The application window for 2014 proposals opened June 23, 2014 and closed September 23, 2014, with the opportunity posted July 2, 2014. Funding decisions are competitive, so proposals are evaluated against program priorities and the strength of the project plan rather than funded on a first-come basis. Administration of project grants is handled through the National Park Service Maritime Heritage Program in partnership with State Historic Preservation Offices (SHPOs), which commonly play a role in coordinating, reviewing, or overseeing preservation-related grants within their states.
Eligible applicants include a broad mix of public and nonprofit entities: federally recognized Native American tribal governments, state governments, county governments, city or township governments, and nonprofits with IRS 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education). Applicants seeking more detailed guidance, official requirements, or program updates were directed to the program page at http://www.nps.gov/maritime/grants/2014.htm.
