Opportunity Summary:
This notice is a National Park Service (NPS) "Notice of Intent to Award" for a project titled "Archeological Overview and Assessment of Submerged, Intertidal, and Shipwreck Archeological Sites in the National Park Service Northeast Region Parks - Component A." It is explicitly not a request for applications, meaning the NPS is not seeking proposals from the public and there is no competitive application process tied to this posting. Instead, the purpose is to publicly document that the agency intends to fund a specific set of activities through a pre-identified partner without full and open competition.
The award is planned as a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates that NPS expects substantial involvement in the work rather than simply issuing funds and stepping back. The project will be carried out under Task Agreement P13AC01332 with the University of Rhode Island, using an existing partnership framework through the North Atlantic Coast Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) Cooperative Agreement Number P09AC00212 (formerly H4503090700). In practical terms, this means the work is being placed under an established inter-institutional agreement vehicle that supports cooperative research, technical assistance, and related services for NPS and its partners.
Financially, the posting indicates a single expected award with total funding estimated at $110,000. The award ceiling and floor are both listed as $110,000, signaling that the amount is essentially fixed for this action rather than a range. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not required to contribute additional non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the award.
Eligibility is also narrow and predetermined. The notice states this is a single-source award to a public and state-controlled institution of higher education, which aligns with the named recipient, the University of Rhode Island. The funding opportunity is categorized as discretionary and is associated with CFDA number 15.945, Cooperative Research and Training Programs - Resources of the National Park System, which generally supports research and collaborative efforts connected to NPS resource stewardship and management.
The timeline shown (posted August 29, 2013, with an original and current closing date of September 3, 2013, and archived September 4, 2013) should be read as administrative dates for the public notice record rather than a window to submit applications. The notice points readers to the full announcement attachment on Grants.gov for complete details and provides an NPS contact for access issues: Jennifer Fleming, NPS Northeast Region Agreements Officer, at 215-597-6476.
