Opportunity Summary:
This notice is a National Park Service (NPS) "Notice of Intent to Award" for a single cooperative agreement project titled "Develop a Historic Commercial Landscape Inventory for Russian America from approximately 1750 to 1867." It is not an open grant competition and it is not requesting applications. Instead, it serves as a public notification that NPS intends to fund specific project activities through an award made without full and open competition.
The opportunity is listed under Funding Opportunity Number NPS 14 NERO 0134 and was posted on August 27, 2014. The closing date shown (September 1, 2014) reflects the end of the public notice period rather than a deadline for submitting proposals, and the opportunity was archived on September 2, 2014. NPS expected to make one award, with total estimated funding of $60,000. The award amount is fixed, with an award ceiling and floor both set at $60,000, and there is no cost sharing or matching requirement.
The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates that NPS anticipates substantial involvement in the project beyond simply providing funds, such as collaboration on project direction, coordination, or review of deliverables. The activity is categorized as "Other" (with the explanation clarifying that this posting is strictly a notice of intent to award rather than a competitive funding opportunity). The listing references CFDA 15.945, Cooperative Research and Training Programs: Resources of the National Park System, indicating the award aligns with NPS research, documentation, and resource-related work.
Eligibility is effectively limited because the announcement is not soliciting applications; it notes "Others" but repeatedly clarifies that this is not a request for proposals and that the intent is to fund project activities without full and open competition. In practical terms, that means the recipient is predetermined or will be selected through a non-competitive process consistent with the agency's authorities and justification for limited competition.
