Opportunity Summary:

This grant opportunity, titled "National Park Service Partnership to Develop a Management Plan and Educational Program for the Sand Creek Massacre NHS" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIP13AC00633), was issued by the National Park Service as a discretionary funding opportunity using a cooperative agreement. The purpose is to support a partnership effort connected to Sand Creek Massacre National Historic Site (NHS) that will produce two main deliverables: a management plan and an educational program. In practical terms, the project is aimed at helping guide how the site is managed and interpreted, while also expanding or formalizing educational content that communicates the history and significance of the Sand Creek Massacre to the public in an appropriate and effective way.

The announcement is structured as a notice of intent rather than an open competition. It states that the award will be made as a task agreement under an existing National Park Service master cooperative agreement, and that it will be issued noncompetitively in accordance with Department of the Interior policy (DOI 505 DM 2.12C). That language indicates the agency already has a specific partner in mind and is proceeding under an approved exception to full and open competition, typically because the work is tied to a particular qualified entity, an existing relationship, or a unique capability that aligns with the goals of the park and the terms of the master agreement.

Eligibility is limited to federally recognized Native American tribal governments. This aligns with the subject matter of Sand Creek Massacre NHS, where Tribal perspectives, consultation, and leadership are central to respectful stewardship, planning, and education. While the listing does not describe detailed work tasks, the combination of a management plan and an educational program suggests activities such as collaborative planning, development of interpretive and educational materials, and potentially community-based engagement or curriculum design that reflects historically accurate information and incorporates Tribal knowledge and viewpoints in a way consistent with the site mission and federal stewardship responsibilities.

The financial details indicate an estimated total funding amount of $25,000, with no cost sharing or matching requirement. The posting lists an expected number of awards of one, reinforcing that this is designed as a single, targeted cooperative agreement action. The award ceiling and floor are both shown as zero in the source data, which often happens in system records when the specific dollar limits are not entered in those particular fields, even though an estimated total amount is provided elsewhere in the posting.

The opportunity was posted on June 20, 2013, with a very short response window: the original and current closing date is June 25, 2013, and it was archived on July 25, 2013. It is categorized under an education activity area and is associated with CFDA number 15.914, labeled "National Register of Historic Places," which is the program catalog reference tied to the federal assistance listing.

For applicants or interested parties who could not access the full announcement electronically, the point of contact listed is Kelly Adams, Grants Management Specialist, reachable by phone at 303-969-2392. This contact information is specifically provided for technical access issues related to the full announcement, which implies that additional requirements, scope details, or task agreement terms were likely contained in the attachment referenced in the notice.
