Opportunity Summary:
This notice is a National Park Service (NPS) public posting titled "NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD: Alternative Transportation Program at Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area (DEWA)." It is issued by the U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service, and it describes NPSs plan to fund a specific project related to alternative transportation at Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area. The key point is that it is not a competitive funding opportunity and not a request for applications; instead, it serves as a transparency notice that NPS intends to make an award to carry out identified project activities without full and open competition.
The opportunity is listed as a discretionary award using a cooperative agreement, which generally means the recipient is expected to work closely with NPS and that NPS will have substantial involvement in the project as it is carried out (for example, participating in planning, coordination, technical review, or implementation decisions). The funding activity category is labeled "Other," indicating it does not fit neatly into standard categories like education, natural resources, or law enforcement in the listing, and the CFDA (assistance listing) number attached to it is 15.954, which corresponds to NPS-related assistance programs.
Administrative details in the listing show the funding opportunity number as NPS 16 NERO 0112, created on July 18, 2016, with an original closing date of July 27, 2016. Because this is a notice of intent to award rather than a solicitation, the "closing date" functions more like the end of the public notice window than a deadline to submit proposals. The notice anticipates a single award (ExpectedAwards: 1). The award ceiling is shown as 0, which typically means the amount is either not specified in the summary fields, will be defined in the related documents, or is otherwise not being advertised as a capped competitive pool in this particular Grants.gov summary.
Eligibility is broadly indicated as "Others," with a note telling readers to consult the additional eligibility information in the full notice. That phrasing is common in records where the award is intended for a particular partner or type of entity (such as a specific nonprofit, university, state or local partner, or another organization), especially when the agency is just providing public notice of a non-competitive action. The listing repeatedly directs readers to the "Related Documents" section for the complete details of the intended award and the project activities, and it points users to Grants.gov support resources for navigation and general grant guidance, even though applications are not being sought here.
In practical terms, this posting is best understood as a compliance and transparency announcement: NPS is signaling that it plans to move forward with a cooperative agreement for an alternative transportation-related project at DEWA, and it is documenting that intent publicly rather than inviting the general public to apply. Anyone interested in the substance, scope, recipient, justification for the non-competitive approach, and any specific project deliverables would need to review the attached related documents referenced in the listing.
