Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS), within the U.S. Department of the Interior, issued a formal Notice of Intent to Award for a project titled "Appalachian Trail Rehabilitation Projects" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS 13 NERO 0088). This notice is strictly a public notification and not a request for applications, meaning the NPS is not seeking proposals or competing submissions from the public. Instead, it serves to inform stakeholders that the agency intends to make an award without full and open competition.
The planned funding mechanism is a cooperative agreement, and the award will be made through a task agreement with the Appalachian Trail Conservancy under an existing cooperative agreement (Cooperative Agreement Number H0500000002/P11AC90861). In practical terms, this indicates the NPS is continuing or implementing specific project work under an established partnership framework rather than initiating a new competitive grant cycle. The purpose is tied to rehabilitation-related work on the Appalachian Trail, and the opportunity is listed under CFDA 15.935, National Trails System Projects, which is the federal assistance listing associated with National Trails System activities.
This is described as a single-source award to a nonprofit entity. While the eligibility category is listed as 501(c)(3) nonprofits (other than institutions of higher education), the notice makes clear the intended recipient is the Appalachian Trail Conservancy, and only one award is expected. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement associated with this award.
The total anticipated funding amount is $281,007, and the award floor and ceiling are both $281,007, signaling a fixed, specific planned award amount rather than a range. The notice was posted and created on July 17, 2013, with an original and current closing date of July 23, 2013, and it was archived on July 24, 2013. Because this is not a competitive announcement, those dates function more as the public notice window rather than a typical application deadline.
For individuals who cannot access the full announcement materials electronically, the NPS provided a point of contact: Jennifer Fleming, NPS NER Agreements Officer, at 215-597-6476. The full details are referenced as being available in an attachment accessible through the "Full Announcement" link on the posting platform.
