Opportunity Summary:
The National Register Documentation, Western Maryland Railroad of Chesapeake opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOI NCRO R3992120005) is a National Park Service (NPS) notice describing an intended, noncompetitive award rather than an open, competitive grant solicitation. It falls under the discretionary funding category and will be issued as a cooperative agreement action tied to existing National Park Service Cooperative Agreement No. H3130090029. In practical terms, this notice signals that the NPS plans to execute a task agreement under an already-established cooperative framework, instead of requesting proposals from the public.
The work is associated with cultural and natural resources, and it is connected to National Register documentation activities for the Western Maryland Railroad of Chesapeake. While the brief notice does not spell out the full scope of tasks, the title and category strongly indicate documentation intended to support National Register of Historic Places-related records, research, or formal documentation products for a historic transportation resource. The funding is listed under CFDA 15.945, which is the Cooperative Research and Training Programs - Resources of the National Park System, a program area commonly used for partnerships that support research, documentation, and related technical work benefiting NPS-managed or NPS-associated resources.
This notice of intent is explicitly issued under the Department of the Interior guidance at 505 Departmental Manual 2.12C, which governs circumstances where a single-source (noncompetitive) award is appropriate. The announcement states that it is not a request for applications and that eligibility is effectively limited because it is a single-source action. The identified recipient is Frederick Community College, Catoctin Center for Regional Studies, meaning the NPS intended to make one award directly to that organization rather than consider multiple applicants. The posting makes clear there is expected to be only one award.
In terms of funding, the estimated total funding amount is $72,800, with no stated award ceiling or floor (both listed as 0, which typically reflects that the specific award amount is addressed through the associated agreement/task instrument rather than a competitive range). There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not being asked to provide non-federal match as a condition of the award. The opportunity was posted on July 18, 2012, created the same day, and had an original and current closing date of July 25, 2012, with an archive date of August 24, 2012. Because it is a notice of intent for a noncompetitive action, the short window functions more as a public notice period than a typical application deadline.
