Opportunity Summary:
This notice is a correction to a previously issued Notice of Intent to Award for the project titled "What's Out There National Parks - Great City Landscapes" under National Park Service funding opportunity number NPS 15 NERO 0118. It is not an open solicitation and should not be read as a request for applications. Instead, it functions as a public transparency notice that the National Park Service (NPS) intends to provide funding for specific project activities through a noncompetitive process, meaning the award will be made without full and open competition.
The opportunity is listed as a discretionary award and will be issued as a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates that NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the project’s execution (for example, collaborating on planning, deliverables, or oversight) rather than simply providing funds with minimal federal participation. The program is categorized under Natural Resources and is associated with CFDA number 15.954, National Park Service Conservation, Protection, Outreach, and Education, signaling that the work supports NPS goals tied to resource conservation and public outreach/education.
Only one award is expected, with total estimated funding of $119,955. The award ceiling and floor are both $119,955, which effectively indicates a single, fixed amount for the intended recipient and project scope described in the underlying full announcement. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not expected to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of the award.
Key dates included in the listing show it was posted and created on August 12, 2015, with a closing date of August 21, 2015, and an archive date of August 22, 2015. Because this is not an application-based competition, the "closing date" functions more as an administrative timeline for the public notice period rather than a deadline for proposal submissions.
Eligibility is broadly labeled as "Others" with additional clarification referenced in the full announcement’s eligibility details, but the central point remains that this is an intent-to-award notice for a specific partner rather than a competitive opportunity open to general applicants. For questions or if the full announcement cannot be accessed electronically, the listed point of contact is Patrick Reidy, Grants Management Specialist, reachable by phone at 215-597-5949, with an NPS email also referenced in the notice.
