Opportunity Summary:

The National Park Service (NPS), within the U.S. Department of the Interior, issued a public Notice of Intent to Award for the Baltimore National Heritage Area under Funding Opportunity Number NPS 16 NERO 0095. The notice is categorized as a discretionary funding action and will be made through a cooperative agreement, with the activity area identified as regional development. The key point of this announcement is that it is not a competitive grant solicitation and not a request for applications. Instead, it serves as formal public notice that NPS intends to provide funding for specific project activities to a recipient without using full and open competition.

This opportunity is tied to CFDA number 15.939 and is structured for a single expected award, with a stated award ceiling of $301,000. Because the instrument is a cooperative agreement, it typically implies substantial involvement by the federal agency in carrying out the supported work, such as collaboration, oversight, or shared project execution, rather than a standard grant where the recipient operates more independently. The listing notes eligible applicants as "Others," with additional eligibility details referenced as being in a separate text field (not included in the provided source), which often indicates that eligibility may be limited to a specific organization, partner entity, or a narrow class of organizations connected to the Baltimore National Heritage Area.

The timeline included in the notice shows a creation date of July 1, 2016, and an original closing date of July 10, 2016. In the context of a notice that is not seeking applications, the closing date is generally understood as the end of the public notice period rather than a deadline for proposal submissions. Overall, the announcement functions mainly as a transparency and compliance step, documenting NPS's intent to fund pre-identified project activities associated with the Baltimore National Heritage Area through a non-competitive cooperative agreement, up to $301,000, with one award anticipated.
