Opportunity Summary:
This notice describes a National Park Service (NPS), U.S. Department of the Interior, intent to make a single, non-competitive cooperative agreement award for a specific project at Fort McHenry in Baltimore, Maryland, called the "Fort Flag Freedom Youth Living History Program." The key point is that it is a public notification of an already planned award decision, not an open funding opportunity. In other words, the NPS is not inviting new applications or proposals through this posting.
The award is being issued under Funding Opportunity Number NPS 15 NERO 0052 and is categorized as a discretionary opportunity using a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument. The activity is listed under an "Other" category, clarified in the announcement as a notice of intent to award without full and open competition. The underlying federal assistance listing is CFDA 15.931, "Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations," which signals that the broader purpose aligns with youth-focused conservation or service-related programming, here implemented through living history and interpretive activities tied to Fort McHenry.
This is a single-source action directed to one specific recipient: Living Classrooms Foundation (LCF), identified as a nonprofit entity. The NPS indicates it will fund the work through Task Agreement P15AC00809 under an existing Cooperative Agreement, P15AC00399. That structure generally means the recipient and NPS already have an established agreement vehicle in place, and this notice is announcing the intent to add or fund a specific set of activities under that existing relationship rather than running a new competition.
The total funding amount is estimated at $140,000, and both the award ceiling and award floor are also stated as $140,000, which effectively communicates a single planned award at a fixed amount rather than a range. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement listed, so the recipient is not expected to provide required non-federal match as a condition of this award.
The posting dates show this was published on May 28, 2015, with an original and current closing date of June 7, 2015, and an archive date of June 8, 2015. In the context of a notice of intent to award, those dates function more as an administrative posting window rather than a deadline for applications, since the announcement explicitly states it is not a request for applications.
For anyone needing the full details, the notice directs readers to the "Related Documents" section on Grants.gov and to open the full announcement. For access issues with the full announcement, the listed contact is Jennifer Fleming, NPS NER Agreements Officer, at 215-597-6476.
