Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service FY2014 MPNHA Implementation of Management Plan opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIP14AC00139) is a discretionary federal funding notice issued by the National Park Service for work connected to a National Heritage Area program. It is structured as a cooperative agreement under the Natural Resources funding activity category, meaning the project is expected to involve an active partnership relationship between the National Park Service and the recipient rather than a hands-off grant arrangement. The purpose, as reflected in the title and description, is to support implementation of an existing management plan for the MPNHA, aligning federal assistance with planned heritage, resource, interpretation, and community-related actions already laid out in that plan.
This notice is explicitly a notice of intent for a noncompetitive, single-source award and is issued under the Department of the Interior authority and policy cited as 505 Departmental Manual 2.12C. In practical terms, that language signals the agency has already identified the intended recipient and is not opening the funding to a competitive application process. The announcement also states plainly that it is not a request for applications. Even though it appears in the format of a funding opportunity posting, it functions more like a public notification that the agency plans to make one specific award using noncompetitive procedures permitted under Interior Department policy.
The total estimated funding amount listed for the award is $84,442, with an expected number of awards of one. Both the award ceiling and floor are shown as $0, which typically indicates the posting is not using those fields to define a competitive range because the amount is essentially predetermined for the identified agreement. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not required to provide a non-federal match as a condition of the award. The CFDA number associated with the opportunity is 15.939, which corresponds to National Heritage Area Federal Financial Assistance.
Eligibility is narrowly defined. While the general eligibility field references "Others" and points readers to additional eligibility language, the listing makes clear that the only eligible and intended recipient for this action is the Utah Heritage Highway 89 Alliance. As a result, other organizations should not expect to apply or be considered for this particular funding action, since the agency has already designated the partner and is proceeding noncompetitively.
The posting timeline reflects the administrative nature of the notice. It was posted and created on February 18, 2014, with an original and current closing date of February 23, 2014, and an archive date of March 25, 2014. These dates should be read as the window for public visibility of the notice rather than an application period, since the announcement is not soliciting proposals.
