Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "New River Gorge Youth will Provide Assistance with Building a Vault Toilet at Brooks Falls Day Use Area" is a National Park Service (NPS) notice announcing the agency's intent to make a single award for a specific, pre-identified project. It is explicitly labeled as a NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD and not a request for applications, meaning the public is being informed of an upcoming funding action rather than invited to compete for the funds. The NPS is using this announcement to document that the work will be supported without full and open competition because it will be issued as Task Agreement J4780110834 under an already-existing Cooperative Agreement (H2495090037) with the Citizens Conservation Corps of West Virginia. That cooperative agreement itself was previously competed at the national level, which is the basis for using it to carry out this project now.
The project falls under the funding activity category "Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations" (CFDA 15.931), with the practical purpose of providing youth-supported conservation and facility improvement work at New River Gorge. Specifically, the work described is assistance with building a vault toilet at the Brooks Falls Day Use Area, a type of restroom facility commonly used in park settings where traditional sewer hookups may not be available. The announcement does not provide a full work plan in the text shown, but it clearly links the funded effort to on-the-ground visitor infrastructure improvements supported by a youth conservation corps partner.
Financially, the NPS indicates an estimated total funding amount of $28,287, and both the award ceiling and award floor are listed as $28,287, signaling a single fixed expected award amount rather than a range. The agency anticipates issuing one award. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement listed, so the recipient is not expected to contribute a mandatory non-federal share as a condition of the award.
In terms of eligibility, the opportunity lists eligible applicants as nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education). In practice, however, because this is not an open solicitation and instead an intent to award under an existing cooperative agreement, the primary relevance of the eligibility language is informational and tied to the underlying cooperative agreement structure rather than an invitation for new applicants. Key dates included in the posting show it was posted February 8, 2011, with an original and current closing date of February 13, 2011, and archived February 14, 2011, reflecting a short public notice period typical for intent-to-award postings.
For anyone needing access to the full announcement materials or additional administrative details, the NPS provides a point of contact: Jennifer Fleming, Contract/Agreements Specialist, at 215-597-6476. The announcement also notes that additional details are available via an attachment accessible through the "Full Announcement" link in the original Grants.gov listing.
