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 called the Conserve History Artillery Artifacts Project at San Juan National Historic Site in San Juan, Puerto Rico. This announcement is not a call for proposals and not an open competition. Instead, it serves as formal public notice that the NPS intends to make a single award without full and open competition under an existing Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Units (CESU) cooperative agreement. The intended partner identified in the notice is the University of Puerto Rico.
The opportunity is listed as a discretionary funding action using a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument, which typically means the NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the project as it is carried out (for example, coordinating technical direction, ensuring work aligns with park conservation priorities, and integrating project results into site management needs). The funding activity category is Natural Resources, and the assistance listing is tied to CFDA 15.954, National Park Service Conservation, Protection, Outreach, and Education. The notice indicates there is no cost sharing or matching requirement.
Administratively, the opportunity is identified by Funding Opportunity Number P15AS00151 and was posted on May 29, 2015, with an original and current closing date of June 10, 2015, and an archive date of June 11, 2015. The estimated total funding amount is $26,000. Although the fields for award ceiling and award floor are listed as $0, the narrative and estimated total funding indicate the intent is to fund the project at approximately the stated total. The expected number of awards is one, consistent with the notice describing a single, non-competitive intended award.
Eligibility is shown as private institutions of higher education, but the text makes clear that the planned recipient is the University of Puerto Rico through CESU Cooperative Agreement H500105040 (also referenced in the notice as H5000105040 in the closing-date language). The overall purpose is to support conservation-related work involving artillery artifacts associated with San Juan National Historic Site, aligning with NPS goals for preservation and stewardship of historic resources. The announcement directs readers to Grants.gov for additional information and provides a point of contact for access issues: Sandra Newton, Financial Assistance Officer, at 305-242-7028 or SandraNewton@nps.gov.
