Opportunity Summary:
This notice is a National Park Service (NPS), U.S. Department of the Interior funding announcement labeled as a "Notice of Intent to Award," meaning it is not an open grant competition and not a request for applications. Its purpose is simply to publicly document that the NPS plans to make a cooperative agreement award for specific project activities without full and open competition. The project referenced in the title focuses on expanding an internship program and supporting research-based education and teacher professional development work connected to Gateway National Recreation Area.
The opportunity is identified by Funding Opportunity Number NPS 15 NERO 0148 and is categorized as a discretionary award using a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument. The program is associated with CFDA 15.945, which covers Cooperative Research and Training Programs related to resources of the National Park System. The announcement indicates there will be one expected award, and there is no cost-sharing or matching requirement for the recipient.
The total planned funding amount is listed as $48,215, and both the award ceiling and award floor are also set at $48,215, which signals a fixed, single-award amount rather than a range. The posting date and creation date are both September 2, 2015, with an original and current closing date of September 11, 2015, and an archive date of September 12, 2015. Even though a "closing date" is included, it does not function like a typical application deadline because the notice explicitly states that applications are not being solicited.
Eligibility is effectively limited because the NPS states it intends to make a single-source award. The named recipient is the Research Foundation of the City University of New York, Brooklyn College, described as a public/state-controlled institution of higher learning. In practical terms, that means other organizations are not being invited to apply under this announcement, and the notice exists to meet public transparency requirements around a non-competitive funding decision.
For anyone trying to locate the full details, the notice directs readers to select the "Related Documents" link on the Grants.gov posting and then open the "Full Announcement." For technical trouble accessing the announcement, the listed point of contact is Jennifer Fleming, NPS NER Agreements Officer, at 215-597-6476.
