Opportunity Summary:
The opportunity titled "NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD - CACO SCA Crew 2015" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS 15 NERO 0068) is a National Park Service notice stating the agency's intention to make a single cooperative agreement award for a specific project, rather than an open call for proposals. In other words, it is not a request for applications and it is not inviting the public to compete for funding. Its main purpose is to provide public transparency that the National Park Service plans to fund certain project activities without full and open competition.
This announcement falls under the discretionary funding category and will be issued as a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates substantial involvement by the National Park Service in carrying out the project alongside the recipient (for example, coordination, oversight, or technical participation). The funding activity is listed under "Other," with the explanation repeating that this is strictly a notice of intent to award and not a competitive solicitation.
The notice anticipates one award in total. The estimated total funding is $29,981, and both the award ceiling and award floor are also $29,981, meaning the agency expected the award amount to be exactly that figure for this planned agreement. A cost sharing or matching requirement is indicated as "Yes," signaling that the recipient would be expected to contribute some portion of costs or matching resources consistent with the final agreement terms.
The program is associated with CFDA Number 15.931, "Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations," which generally supports conservation work carried out through youth-focused service organizations. While the short posting does not provide the detailed scope of work, the title "CACO SCA Crew 2015" strongly suggests a conservation crew project connected to Cape Cod National Seashore (commonly abbreviated CACO) and the Student Conservation Association (SCA), a well-known youth service organization that partners with federal land management agencies on conservation and stewardship projects.
Key dates show the notice was posted and created on June 23, 2015, with an original and current closing date of July 2, 2015, and an archive date of July 3, 2015. Because the announcement is not accepting applications, the closing date functions more as the end of the public notice period rather than an application deadline.
Eligibility is effectively limited by the nature of the notice. Although "Eligible Applicants" is listed as "Others," the accompanying eligibility information repeats that this is not a request for applications, which indicates there is no open eligibility pool for would-be applicants to apply under this posting.
For questions or if there are issues accessing the full announcement, the listed point of contact is Patrick Reidy, Grants Management Specialist, by phone at 215-597-5949. An email is referenced but not provided in the text included.
