Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "North Cascades National Park 2011 Trail Work" is a National Park Service (NPS) funding action under the U.S. Department of the Interior that is being issued strictly as a public notice, not as an open solicitation. In other words, it is not asking outside organizations to apply. Instead, the NPS is announcing its intent to make one noncompetitive, single-source cooperative agreement award for trail-related and campground rehabilitation work within the North Cascades National Park Service Complex.
The intended recipient is the State of Washington, Department of Ecology, Washington Conservation Corps (WCC), based in Olympia, Washington. The NPS cites Department of the Interior policy (Departmental Manual 505 DM 2) as the basis for awarding without full and open competition, specifically under the justification of unique qualifications and cost sharing. The notice explains that WCC is considered uniquely qualified for this work due to a combination of factors that include its location, its ability to leverage voluntary support capacity, its demonstrated cost-sharing capability, its technical expertise, and other specialized qualifications described in the underlying documentation referenced by the announcement.
Structurally, the NPS plans to issue a Task Agreement under an already-established Cooperative Agreement identified as H9471101110. The project scope is described at a high level as campground rehabilitation and trail-related work to be carried out during the 2011 period. The estimated value of the task agreement is $16,800, which is also listed as the total anticipated funding and the award ceiling, with an award floor of $1. The posting indicates that cost sharing or matching is required, reinforcing that part of the justification for selecting WCC involves its ability to contribute resources alongside federal funds.
From an administrative standpoint, the opportunity is labeled discretionary and uses a cooperative agreement funding instrument, with the funding activity category listed as "Other" and clarified as a notice of intent rather than a request for applications. The announcement was posted on December 28, 2010, and it carried an original and current closing date of December 31, 2010, with an archive date of January 1, 2011. Only one award was expected. For questions or difficulty accessing the full announcement, the listed point of contact is Barry Fetzer, Contract Specialist (NOCA Contracting Officer), reachable at 360-854-7219.
