Opportunity Summary:
The "Notice of Intent to Award Appalachian Trail Boundary Maintenance Program" is a National Park Service (NPS) announcement letting the public know that the agency plans to make a cooperative agreement award without going through a full, open competition process. In other words, it is not a grant competition and it is not asking organizations to submit applications. Instead, it serves as a transparency notice that the NPS intends to fund specific project activities through a single, designated recipient.
This opportunity is listed under Funding Opportunity Number NPS 15 NERO 0083 and is categorized as a discretionary award using a cooperative agreement instrument. The associated CFDA (Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance) number is 15.935, National Trails System Projects, which signals that the work aligns with federal support for national trail resources and related stewardship activities. The activity category is listed as "Other," with the explanation clarifying that the posting is strictly a notice of intent to award rather than a standard, open grant solicitation.
The intended recipient is the Appalachian Trail Conservancy (ATC), identified in the notice as a nonprofit entity. Because it is a single-source award, the eligibility field effectively confirms that other applicants are not being invited to apply, and the award is being directed to ATC specifically. The notice also indicates there will be one expected award.
Funding details are clearly defined and fixed in the posting. The estimated total funding amount is $231,817, and both the award ceiling and award floor are also $231,817, which indicates the NPS anticipates making one award at that exact amount. The opportunity states there is no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning the recipient is not expected to provide a non-federal match as a condition of the award.
In terms of timing, the notice was posted on July 4, 2015, with an original and current closing date of July 13, 2015, and an archive date of July 14, 2015. Since this is not an application-driven opportunity, these dates function more as an administrative window for public notice rather than a submission deadline for competing proposals.
For anyone trying to access the complete details, the notice directs readers to use the "Related Documents" section on Grants.gov and open the full announcement. It also provides a point of contact for technical access issues: Jennifer Fleming, NPS NER Agreements Officer, reachable by phone at 215-597-6476.
