Opportunity Summary:

This notice describes the National Park Service (NPS) intent to make a single, non-competitive award to support work that helps parks in the NPS Northeast Region with cultural landscape inventory and treatment activities. It is explicitly labeled as a "Notice of Intent to Award," meaning it is not a solicitation and not a request for applications. Instead, it functions as a public transparency step to announce that NPS plans to fund specific project activities without using full and open competition.

The opportunity is identified by Funding Opportunity Number NPS 15 NERO 0128 and carries the title "NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD Assist NPS Northeast Region Parks with Cultural Landscape Inventory and Treatment." The award mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates that NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the supported work, such as participating in planning, coordination, oversight, or technical direction alongside the recipient. The activity category is listed under Natural Resources, and the program references CFDA 15.945, which covers Cooperative Research and Training Programs related to resources of the National Park System.

Funding details are straightforward: NPS anticipated making one award with an estimated total funding amount of $90,000. The award floor and ceiling are both $90,000, indicating the planned award amount is fixed rather than a range. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not expected to contribute additional non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the award.

Key dates included in the record show it was posted and created on August 14, 2015, with an original and current closing date of August 23, 2015, and an archive date of September 22, 2015. In the context of a notice of intent rather than an open competition, these dates function more like an administrative posting window for the public record than a true application deadline.

Eligibility is broadly labeled as "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," but the central eligibility point is that this is not open for applications because NPS is announcing its intention to fund the project without full and open competition. In practical terms, that means interested parties should not prepare or submit proposals in response to this posting, since NPS is not seeking competing applications through this announcement.

For questions or issues accessing the full announcement, the listed contact is Patrick Reidy, Grants Management Specialist, reachable by phone at 215-597-5949, with an NPS email contact indicated in the posting. The agency making the award is the National Park Service.
