National Park Service FY 2014 Implementation of Management Plan | Apply Online

Opportunity Summary:

The National Park Service FY 2014 Implementation of Management Plan opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIP14AC00091MOD1) is a discretionary federal funding notice issued by the National Park Service. It is structured as a cooperative agreement, which generally means the NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the project during the period of performance, rather than simply issuing funds with minimal federal participation. The funding activity area is natural resources, and the opportunity is associated with CFDA 15.939, National Heritage Area Federal Financial Assistance, indicating that the project is tied to National Heritage Area purposes such as implementing approved plans, advancing resource conservation, interpretation, education, and related partnership activities consistent with an established management framework.

This particular posting is explicitly described as a notice of intent for a noncompetitive award under Department of the Interior policy (505 Departmental Manual 2.12C). In practical terms, that signals the agency is not running an open competition where multiple applicants are evaluated against each other. Instead, the NPS is indicating its intent to make an award to a specific eligible entity or a narrowly defined recipient type based on an existing justification allowed under the cited departmental guidance. Because of that, it should be viewed less as a typical grant solicitation and more as an administrative step that documents the planned award, the instrument type, and the basic parameters of the assistance action.

The opportunity anticipates a single award (Expected Awards: 1) with an estimated total funding amount of $256,020. The listing shows no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning the recipient is not required by this notice to provide non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the award. The award ceiling and floor are both listed as $0, which often happens in notices that are not designed for open competition or where the actual amount is set through an internal determination and reflected elsewhere in the attached announcement or subsequent award documents.

Eligibility is limited to city or township governments, pointing to local government as the intended recipient category. The title, Implementation of Management Plan, suggests the funds are meant to carry out actions identified in an established management plan, likely connected to a National Heritage Area or similar NPS-partnered initiative. While the short description does not list tasks or deliverables, implementation funding in this context commonly supports plan-based work such as resource stewardship activities, preservation or conservation coordination, interpretive and educational programming, visitor experience improvements, partnership development, and other on-the-ground or programmatic steps that advance the goals and strategies already approved in the management plan.

Key dates indicate the opportunity was posted and created on May 30, 2014, with an original and current closing date of June 3, 2014, and an archive date of July 3, 2014. The very short open period is consistent with a notice-of-intent, noncompetitive action where the agency is meeting publication requirements rather than soliciting broad proposals. The announcement notes that additional details are contained in an attachment; applicants or interested parties would need that full announcement to see the specific project scope, performance period, reporting expectations, and any other special terms.

For access issues or questions about obtaining the full announcement, the listed point of contact is Kelly Adams, Grants Management Specialist, reachable by phone at 303-969-2303.
