Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service grant opportunity titled "National Park Service Cultural Landscape Inventory - Civil War Defenses of Washington and Washington DC Urban Park Landscapes" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIP14AC01144) is a discretionary funding action that will be carried out through a cooperative agreement under the National Park Service Colorado Plateau Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU). The work falls under the Natural Resources funding activity category and is tied to CFDA 15.945, which covers Cooperative Research and Training Programs related to resources of the National Park System. The purpose is to support cultural landscape inventory work focused on two related subject areas: the Civil War Defenses of Washington and urban park landscapes in Washington, DC. In practical terms, this kind of project typically involves researching, documenting, and evaluating historically significant landscapes to support long-term stewardship, planning, interpretation, and resource protection within the National Park System.
This announcement is not a typical open competition. It is explicitly described as a notice of intent to make a noncompetitive, single-source award, citing the Department of the Interior policy reference 505 Departmental Manual 2.12C as the basis for proceeding without competition. The announcement also makes clear that it is not a request for applications and that there will be one expected award. The intended recipient is identified directly: the University of Pennsylvania. Because it is a single-source action, other organizations are not being invited to apply through this posting, even though the standard Grants.gov fields may reference eligibility categories.
The estimated total funding for the action is $76,989, with no cost sharing or matching requirement. The listing shows an award ceiling and award floor of $0, which commonly appears in notices of intent or noncompetitive postings where the agency is not using the ceiling/floor fields in the standard way, and instead communicates the anticipated amount through the estimated total funding figure. The opportunity was posted on July 8, 2014, with an original and current closing date of July 12, 2014, and it was later archived on August 11, 2014. Those dates reflect the administrative window for posting the intent notice rather than a period in which applications would be accepted, since the agency had already selected the recipient for this cooperative agreement action.
For anyone needing the full details, the notice indicates that additional information is contained in an attached announcement. If there were problems accessing that full announcement electronically, the point of contact provided was Kelly Adams, Grants Management Specialist, reachable by phone at 303-969-2303.
