Opportunity Summary:
This notice describes a National Park Service (NPS) funding action titled "NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD - Guidance for the National Park Service in conducting vulnerability assessments in the Northeast Region." It is not an open grant competition and it is not asking the public to submit applications. Instead, it serves as a public notice that NPS intends to make a single award without full and open competition to support specific project activities related to developing or providing guidance for vulnerability assessments in the NPS Northeast Region.
The opportunity is issued under Funding Opportunity Number NPS 14 NERO 0081 and is categorized as a discretionary award using a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument. The activity is listed under CFDA 15.945, Cooperative Research and Training Programs - Resources of the National Park System, which generally covers research, technical assistance, and capacity-building efforts that help NPS manage park resources. The funding activity category is labeled "Other," with the explanation reiterating that this is a notice of intent to award rather than a solicitation.
NPS anticipates making exactly one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $30,495. The award ceiling and floor are both $30,495, meaning the planned award amount is fixed at that level rather than offered as a range. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not expected to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of the award.
Key dates indicate this was posted and created on July 23, 2014, with an original and current closing date of July 28, 2014, and an archive date of July 29, 2014. 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 submitting applications, since applications are not being requested.
Eligibility is shown as "Others," but the eligibility text again emphasizes that this is not a request for applications and that NPS intends to fund the project activities without full and open competition. In practical terms, this typically means NPS has identified a specific partner or recipient for the cooperative agreement and is publishing the notice to document and communicate that intention publicly.
For questions or help accessing the full announcement, the listed contact is Patrick Reidy, Grants Management Specialist, reachable by phone at 215-597-5949. The announcement also references an NPS email contact, though the email address is not included in the provided source text.
