Opportunity Summary:
This notice is a National Park Service (NPS), U.S. Department of the Interior announcement stating its intent to make a single, non-competitive award related to a project titled "Identify Species Vulnerable to Climate Change at Acadia National Park." It is explicitly not a request for applications, meaning the NPS is not soliciting proposals from the public and there is no open competition associated with this opportunity. The purpose of the posting is largely informational: it serves as public notice that the agency plans to provide additional funding to an existing agreement rather than running a new competitive grant process.
The funding mechanism listed is a cooperative agreement, and the action described is a modification that adds funds to an existing Task Agreement (P13AC00770). The recipient identified for this single-source award is the Schoodic Education and Research Center (SERC) Institute, described as a nonprofit organization with 501(c)(3) status. Although the data field for eligible applicants mentions "small businesses," the narrative eligibility section clarifies that this is a directed, single-source action to SERC and not an open opportunity where other entities can apply.
In terms of scope, the project centers on identifying species at Acadia National Park that are vulnerable to climate change. While the notice does not provide methodological details in the text shown, the title and program context indicate the work would support natural resource stewardship and climate adaptation planning by improving understanding of which species may be most at risk under changing conditions. The CFDA listing is 15.944, Natural Resource Stewardship, which aligns with NPS efforts to assess and manage ecological resources within park units.
The total funding amount is fixed in this notice: an estimated total of $156,493, with the award floor and ceiling both set at $156,493, signaling the agency already knows the exact amount to be added or obligated under the modification. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement. The notice was posted on July 10, 2014, with an original and current closing date of July 15, 2014, and an archive date of July 16, 2014, which is typical for notices intended to satisfy posting requirements rather than to gather applications.
For anyone trying to locate more detailed project specifics, the notice indicates that complete details would be contained in an attachment accessible through the "Full Announcement" link on Grants.gov. The listed point of contact for access issues is Jennifer Fleming, NPS Northeast Region Agreements Officer, reachable by phone at 215-597-6476.
