Opportunity Summary:
This opportunity is a National Park Service (NPS), U.S. Department of the Interior, Notice of Intent to Award titled "Johnstown Flood Museum Restoration, Interpretation, Operation, and Maintenance" (Funding Opportunity Number: NPS 14 NERO 0072). It is important to understand that this posting is not a request for applications and is not a competitive grant solicitation. Instead, it serves as a public notice that the NPS plans to provide funding through a cooperative agreement without full and open competition.
The funding instrument is a Cooperative Agreement, and the action described is a modification to an existing cooperative agreement (P13AC00484) to add additional funds. The intended recipient is the Johnstown Area Heritage Association, identified as a single-source awardee and described as a nonprofit organization with IRS 501(c)(3) status. Because the award is single-source and noncompetitive, other organizations are not being invited to apply through this announcement, even though the general listing of eligible applicants includes an "Others" category with clarifying language pointing back to the single-source intent.
The project scope, as reflected in the title and brief description, centers on restoration, interpretation, operation, and maintenance activities associated with the Johnstown Flood Museum. While the short summary in the posting does not list specific tasks or work plans, it indicates that the NPS is supporting ongoing museum-related functions that typically include preserving historic resources, maintaining facilities and exhibits, supporting interpretive programming and educational outreach, and keeping the museum operational for public benefit. The announcement notes that complete details are contained in an attachment accessible via the "Full Announcement" link.
Financially, the opportunity lists an estimated total funding amount of $44,000, with an award ceiling of $44,000 and an award floor of $44,000, indicating a single expected award at that exact amount. The posting also states that cost sharing or matching is required, meaning the recipient is expected to contribute non-federal match consistent with the terms of the cooperative agreement and applicable NPS and federal assistance requirements (the exact match ratio or allowable sources would be defined in the full agreement documentation or the referenced attachment).
The assistance listing is tied to CFDA 15.954, "National Park Service Conservation, Protection, Outreach, and Education," and the activity category is labeled as "Other," with the explanation reiterating that this is a Notice of Intent to Award rather than an open funding opportunity. The notice was posted on July 1, 2014, with a closing date of July 6, 2014, and an archive date of July 7, 2014, which reflects the administrative window for public notice rather than an application period.
For questions about accessing the full announcement electronically, the notice provides a contact: Jennifer Fleming, NPS NER Agreements Officer, at 215-597-6476. The posting also directs users who need general Grants.gov navigation help to use the "Contact Us" resources on the Grants.gov site, but it does not provide an application pathway because the funding is intended as a noncompetitive modification to an existing cooperative agreement.
