Opportunity Summary:
This notice is a National Park Service (NPS) announcement indicating its intent to make a single, specific award for work connected to the Alternative Transportation Program at Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area (DEWA) for fiscal year 2016. It is explicitly not a solicitation and not a request for applications, meaning the NPS is not seeking proposals from the public and there is no open competition process associated with this posting. Instead, the purpose of the listing is transparency: to publicly document that the agency plans to fund certain project activities through an award made without full and open competition.
The opportunity is listed as a discretionary funding action under Funding Opportunity Number NPS 16 NERO 0121, issued by the U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service. The planned funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which typically implies substantial involvement by the federal agency during project implementation (for example, coordination, technical participation, or shared responsibilities), rather than a more hands-off relationship. The activity category is labeled "Other," with clarification referenced in the full notice materials (not included in the text provided here), and the assistance listing is tied to CFDA 15.954.
Key funding details shown in the posting include an award ceiling of $50,000 and an expectation of one award total. The notice was created on July 28, 2016, with an original closing date of August 7, 2016. In the context of a notice of intent to award, the closing date functions more like the end of the public notice period on Grants.gov rather than a deadline for submitting applications, since the agency is not accepting applications under this announcement.
Eligibility is described broadly as "Others," with a note that additional eligibility details would be provided in the related documentation. Because this is not an open call, that eligibility label does not mean multiple applicants can apply; rather, it reflects how the record is categorized in the system while the agency proceeds with a planned, non-competitive award to a specific partner. Anyone seeking the exact scope of work, justification for the non-competitive approach, and the identity or type of the intended recipient would need to consult the full Notice of Intent to Award in the "Related Documents" section referenced in the announcement.
