Opportunity Summary:
This opportunity is a National Park Service (NPS), U.S. Department of the Interior notice stating its intent to make a single cooperative agreement award for a project titled "Developing Collaborative Conservation and Leadership Models" connected to Marsh-Billings-Rockefeller National Historical Park (NHP) in Vermont. The key point is that it is a Notice of Intent to Award, not a competitive grant solicitation. In other words, the NPS is posting this announcement to publicly document that it plans to fund specific work with a specific partner, rather than inviting applications from the general public.
The planned award is tied to CFDA (now commonly referred to as Assistance Listing) 15.954, National Park Service Conservation, Protection, Outreach, and Education, and it is categorized under a discretionary funding opportunity using a cooperative agreement. A cooperative agreement typically indicates that the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement in the project, such as collaborating on planning, implementation, or oversight, rather than simply issuing a grant with minimal agency participation. The announcement indicates that the project will be carried out through a task agreement with the Quebec Labrador Foundation / Atlantic Center for the Environment (QLF).
Funding is fixed and clearly defined in the notice. The NPS anticipates one award with an estimated total funding amount of $183,000, and both the award ceiling and floor are listed as $183,000, signaling that the intended award amount is not a range but a set figure. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not expected to provide a required non-federal match as a condition of receiving the funds.
Eligibility is effectively limited by design because this is not an open competition. The notice explains that the recipient is a nonprofit organization with 501(c)(3) status, and the announcement is intended to satisfy public notice requirements for awarding without full and open competition. The posting dates also reflect that it functioned more as a short public notice window than an application period: it was posted on July 8, 2012, with an original and current closing date of July 14, 2012, and archived on July 15, 2012.
For anyone seeking more detailed scope, deliverables, or the justification for the non-competitive award, the announcement directs readers to the attachment available through the "Full Announcement" link on Grants.gov. The listed point of contact for access issues is Jennifer Fleming, Contract/Agreements Specialist at the National Park Service, reachable by phone at 215-597-6476.
