Opportunity Summary:
This notice describes a National Park Service (NPS) funding action titled "Notice of Intent to Award Appalachian Trail Trail to Every Classroom 2014 Workshops." It is explicitly not a solicitation and not a request for applications. Instead, it serves as a public transparency posting that the NPS plans to fund specific project activities through a noncompetitive award. In other words, the agency is announcing ahead of time that it intends to make a single, direct award rather than running an open competition on Grants.gov.
The award will be made through a cooperative agreement mechanism, reflecting an arrangement where NPS involvement and collaboration is typically expected as part of carrying out the work. The project is associated with Task Agreement P14AC01203, which will be issued to the Appalachian Trail Conservancy (ATC) under an existing Cooperative Agreement (P14AC00659). The funding is tied to CFDA (now commonly referred to as Assistance Listing) 15.935, National Trails System Projects, and the activity category is listed as "Other," with the clarification that the posting is a notice of intent to award rather than a standard competitive grant opportunity.
Funding details are fixed and straightforward. The total estimated funding is $104,000, and both the award floor and award ceiling are also $104,000, indicating an anticipated single award at that exact amount. The notice lists an expected number of awards of one, and it states there is no cost sharing or matching requirement. Although the eligibility field shows "Others," the eligibility narrative makes clear that this is a single-source award specifically to the Appalachian Trail Conservancy, a nonprofit entity, meaning other organizations are not eligible to apply because the NPS is not accepting applications for this action.
The timeline reflects the administrative nature of the posting rather than an application window. It was posted and created on July 29, 2014, with an original and current closing date of August 3, 2014, and an archive date of August 4, 2014. Those dates function more as the period during which the notice is publicly visible as an active opportunity record, not as a deadline for submitting proposals, since proposals are not being requested.
For anyone seeking the full background and specific project activity descriptions, the notice indicates that complete details are provided in an attachment accessible through the "Full Announcement" link on the Grants.gov posting. The listed point of contact for access issues is Jennifer Fleming, NPS NER Agreements Officer, at 215-597-6476.
