Opportunity Summary:
This notice describes a National Park Service (NPS) intention to make a single cooperative agreement award for a project titled "Document, Evaluate, and Prescribe Treatment, Cultural Landscape of Gettysburg National Military Park, First Day Union 1st Corps Battlefield." The key point is that it is a Notice of Intent to Award rather than a competitive grant solicitation. In other words, it is not asking organizations to apply; it is publishing a public notice that NPS plans to fund specific project activities without full and open competition.
The project itself focuses on the cultural landscape at Gettysburg National Military Park, specifically the portion associated with the first day of the battle and the Union 1st Corps battlefield. The work implied by the title covers three major components: documenting the landscape (assembling records, mapping, and describing landscape features and conditions), evaluating it (assessing historical significance, integrity, contributing features, and current issues), and prescribing treatment (recommending how the landscape should be managed, preserved, rehabilitated, or otherwise treated to protect its historic character while meeting park needs). Because the announcement is framed around cultural landscape treatment, the expected outputs typically align with cultural landscape documentation and planning deliverables used by NPS, such as condition assessments and treatment recommendations that guide future stewardship decisions.
Administratively, the opportunity is listed as a discretionary funding action using a cooperative agreement, which usually indicates that NPS expects to be substantially involved in the work (for example, coordinating scope, providing technical direction, reviewing deliverables, and ensuring consistency with NPS cultural resource standards). The funding activity category is listed as "Other," with the explanation reiterating that this is simply a public notice of an intended noncompetitive award.
The notice anticipates one award with total estimated funding of $120,000, and both the award ceiling and floor are set at $120,000, indicating a fixed expected award amount rather than a range. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement. The CFDA number associated with the action is 15.945, Cooperative Research and Training Programs - Resources of the National Park System, which is commonly used for projects that support NPS resource stewardship through research, documentation, and related technical work.
Timing details show the notice was posted and created on May 6, 2015, with an original and current closing date of May 16, 2015, and an archive date of May 17, 2015. In the context of a notice of intent to award, the "closing" date functions more like the end of the public notice period rather than a deadline for application submissions, since applications are not being requested.
Eligibility is effectively moot for the general public because the notice is not open for competition. It lists eligible applicants as "Others," but the text clarifies that the announcement is only meant to inform the public of NPS's intent to fund the project without full and open competition, implying a specific partner has already been identified for the cooperative agreement.
For questions or access issues with the full announcement, the listed contact is Patrick Reidy, Grants Management Specialist, with a provided phone number (215-597-5949) and an NPS email contact reference.
