Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS), under the U.S. Department of the Interior, issued a Notice of Intent to Award for a project titled "Art and Conservation Stewardship, Phase 2" in New England. This announcement is specifically a public notice that NPS plans to provide additional funding to an existing cooperative agreement rather than run a new, open competition. In other words, it is not a call for proposals and it is not inviting applications from the public. The purpose of the posting is transparency: it formally states that NPS intends to make a non-competitive funding action by modifying an already-established partnership arrangement.
The funding mechanism for the action is a cooperative agreement, which typically means NPS expects to stay substantially involved in the project as it is carried out, rather than simply issuing a grant and stepping back. The named partner is the New England Foundation for the Arts (NEFA), a nonprofit organization with IRS 501(c)(3) status. The announcement indicates that the award is essentially an amendment to add funds to that existing cooperative agreement with NEFA, supporting continued work under "Phase 2" of the Art and Conservation Stewardship effort in the New England region.
From a funding standpoint, the opportunity lists an estimated total of $45,000, and both the award ceiling and award floor are also $45,000, meaning NPS anticipated a single award at that exact amount. The expected number of awards is one. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, so the federal funds are not contingent on the recipient providing additional non-federal dollars as a condition of the award.
Administratively, the opportunity is categorized as discretionary and tied to a humanities-related activity area (noted as "Humanities," with reference to cultural affairs). It is associated with CFDA number 15.921, which corresponds to the Rivers, Trails and Conservation Assistance program. The posting dates show it was published on July 25, 2012, with a closing date of July 30, 2012, and it was archived July 31, 2012. Even though a closing date is listed, in this context it functions more like a public notice window rather than a deadline for submitting applications, since the notice explicitly states it is not requesting applications.
Eligibility is effectively limited by design because this is a noncompetitive action intended for a specific recipient under an existing agreement. While the listing includes an "Eligible Applicants" field that broadly references "Others" and points readers to additional eligibility information, the text clarifies the recipient is a nonprofit with 501(c)(3) status and identifies NEFA as the intended partner. Anyone looking for the full details is directed to the attachment under the "Full Announcement" link (as it appeared on Grants.gov at the time). For access issues or further assistance, the contact provided is Jennifer Fleming, Contract/Agreements Specialist at NPS, with a listed phone number of 215-597-6476.
