Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS), within the U.S. Department of the Interior, issued a public "Notice of Intent to Award" for a project titled "HOPE Youth Crew Project - Repoint Saratoga Monument at Saratoga NHP." The key point of this announcement is that it is not a request for applications and is not a competitive grant opportunity. Instead, it is a formal notice that NPS plans to fund specific project work without full and open competition, meaning the agency has already identified the intended recipient and is proceeding as a single-source award.
The funding will be provided through a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates that NPS expects to be substantially involved in the project during performance, rather than simply issuing funds and stepping back. The activity is associated with youth conservation work under CFDA 15.931, "Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations," aligning the project with hands-on preservation and resource stewardship work carried out by youth crews. The work described in the title suggests a historic preservation scope at Saratoga National Historical Park (Saratoga NHP), specifically repointing the Saratoga Monument. Repointing generally refers to repairing and renewing mortar joints in masonry, an important maintenance task that helps protect historic stonework from water intrusion and long-term deterioration.
This opportunity was structured as a single expected award, and the intended recipient is The Corps Network (TCN), identified as a nonprofit entity. Eligibility is effectively limited because this notice serves only to inform the public of NPS's intent to make a non-competitive, single-source award to that organization. The announcement also indicates a cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning the project will include non-federal contributions alongside the federal funding, although the brief synopsis provided does not specify the match percentage or what forms of match will be accepted.
Financially, the total estimated funding is $28,704, and both the award ceiling and award floor are also listed as $28,704, which signals a fixed award amount rather than a funding range. The posting date and creation date are August 30, 2015, with an original and current closing date of September 8, 2015, and an archive date of September 9, 2015. In the context of a notice of intent to award (rather than an open solicitation), these dates function more as an administrative posting window for public notice than as a deadline for applicant submissions.
For anyone seeking additional detail beyond the summary text, NPS directs readers to the full announcement via the "Related Documents" section on Grants.gov. The listed point of contact for accessing the full announcement or handling issues with electronic access is Jennifer Fleming, an NPS Northeast Region Agreements Officer, reachable by phone at 215-597-6476.
