Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS), within the U.S. Department of the Interior, issued a public "Notice of Intent to Award" for a project connected to the Chesapeake Conservation Corps under the Chesapeake Bay Program. This notice is explicitly not a request for applications, meaning the NPS is not seeking proposals from the public and there is no competitive application process associated with this posting. Instead, the purpose is transparency: it formally informs the public that the agency plans to make a specific award without full and open competition.
The opportunity is being handled as a cooperative agreement action under an existing umbrella cooperative agreement (P12AC30653), with work to be carried out through a specific task agreement (P14AC00708). In practice, this indicates the NPS anticipates an ongoing, collaborative role in the project rather than simply issuing a standard grant with minimal federal involvement. The single expected award is directed to one organization only: Parks and People Foundation, identified as a nonprofit organization with 501(c)(3) status. Although the general eligible applicant category listed is 501(c)(3) nonprofits (other than institutions of higher education), the eligibility language makes clear this is a single-source action and the intended recipient is Parks and People Foundation.
Financially, the announcement states an estimated total funding amount of $45,000, with an award ceiling and floor both set at $45,000, signaling that the award amount is fixed rather than a range. The opportunity also carries a cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning the recipient is expected to contribute non-federal resources (cash or in-kind, depending on the agreement terms) as part of the total project cost. The program is associated with CFDA number 15.931, "Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations," which aligns the project with youth-oriented conservation and service activities.
Timing details reflect the administrative nature of the notice. The posting date and creation date are June 18, 2014, with an original and current closing date of June 22, 2014, and an archive date of June 23, 2014. These dates should not be read as a normal application window since the announcement is not soliciting applications; they mainly reflect the period the notice was publicly visible and tracked in the grants system.
For anyone trying to locate the full specifics of the planned activities, the notice directs readers to an attachment accessible via the "Full Announcement" link on the posting page, which would typically contain the rationale for the noncompetitive award and a higher-level description of the project scope. For access issues or administrative questions, the listed contact is Jennifer Fleming, NPS Northeast Region Agreements Officer, reachable by phone at 215-597-6476.
