Opportunity Summary:
The Niagara Falls National Heritage Area Management Plan Implementation notice (Funding Opportunity Number NPS 13 NERO 0069) is a National Park Service announcement related to continued implementation work tied to the Niagara Falls National Heritage Area management plan. Even though it appears in the format of a federal funding opportunity, it is explicitly not a call for proposals and not something organizations can apply to. Instead, it serves as a public notification that an existing cooperator has received additional Fiscal Year 2013 funding to continue carrying out previously authorized and ongoing management plan implementation activities.
The instrument identified is a cooperative agreement under the National Heritage Area Federal Financial Assistance program (CFDA 15.939). The notice lists one expected award with a total estimated funding amount of $216,000, and both the award ceiling and floor are also $216,000, which signals that the amount is fixed for the single recipient already selected. A cost sharing or matching requirement is noted as "Yes," meaning the funded work is expected to be supported with non-federal contributions consistent with the terms typically associated with heritage area assistance, although the announcement itself does not provide a breakdown of the match or the specific sources.
Eligibility is shown as limited to nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), but the repeated eligibility language makes clear this is informational only and not an open competition. The posting and creation date are July 8, 2013, with a closing date of July 12, 2013, and an archive date of July 13, 2013. Those dates function more as administrative milestones for the public record than as an application window, since the notice reiterates multiple times that no applications are being accepted.
