Opportunity Summary:
This notice is a National Park Service (NPS) announcement stating an intent to make a specific award related to Superstorm Sandy recovery and coastal adaptation work at the Gateway National Recreation Area (NRA), specifically the Staten Island Unit in New York. The key point is that it is not an open grant competition and not a request for applications. Instead, it serves as a public transparency step letting the public know that the NPS plans to provide funding through a cooperative agreement without full and open competition.
The funding opportunity is identified as NPS 14 NERO 0102 and is tied to CFDA 15.945 (Cooperative Research and Training Programs - Resources of the National Park System). The planned action is a modification to an existing task agreement (Task Agreement P13AC00695) with Rutgers University. In practical terms, this means NPS already has an agreement in place with Rutgers and intends to add additional funds to continue or expand the agreed-upon work rather than solicit proposals from other organizations.
The project focus, as reflected in the title, centers on assessing and addressing the impacts of Superstorm Sandy, implementing coastal adaptation measures for affected park areas, and conducting revegetation work in the Staten Island Unit of Gateway NRA. While the notice does not spell out detailed scopes and deliverables in the text provided, the theme indicates activities that typically include post-storm ecological assessment, planning and implementing restoration strategies that improve resilience to future storms and sea level rise, and replanting or restoring native vegetation to stabilize dunes or shorelines and rehabilitate damaged habitats.
The award structure is a cooperative agreement, which generally implies substantial involvement by the federal agency during the project, such as collaboration on planning, monitoring, technical decisions, or coordination with park management priorities. The announcement anticipates a single award (ExpectedAwards: 1) and explicitly states it is a single-source action to Rutgers University, described as a state-controlled institution of higher learning. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement listed, meaning Rutgers is not expected to provide a mandatory financial match to receive the federal funds under this action.
The total planned funding amount is fixed at $49,992, with the award floor and ceiling both set at $49,992, indicating the NPS has a specific, predetermined amount it intends to obligate through this modification. The notice was posted and created on July 31, 2014, with an original and current closing date of August 5, 2014, and an archive date of August 6, 2014. In this context, the "closing date" functions more like the end of the public notice window rather than a deadline for proposal submissions, since applications are not being solicited.
For further information, the notice directs readers to the attachment under the full announcement link on Grants.gov for complete details, and it provides a point of contact for access issues: Jennifer Fleming, Agreements Officer, National Park Service (phone 215-597-6476).
