Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "Notice of Intent to Award Lowell National Historical Park Youth Programming School Year 2014-2015 for Trades Skills Team" is a National Park Service (NPS) funding notice issued by the U.S. Department of the Interior. It is specifically labeled as a "Notice of Intent to Award," meaning it is not an open competition and not a request for applications. Instead, the purpose of the posting is to publicly document the NPS plan to move forward with a pre-identified recipient and project arrangement without full and open competitive bidding.
In practical terms, the NPS is announcing its intention to make a single award to Community Teamwork, Inc. (CTI), a nonprofit organization with 501(c)(3) status. The work will be carried out through Task Agreement P14AC00806 under an existing Cooperative Agreement (P14AC00340). Because it is a cooperative agreement, this also implies an ongoing level of federal involvement or partnership in the project compared to a standard grant, although the specific roles and responsibilities are referenced as being detailed in the attachment linked in the full announcement.
The opportunity is categorized as discretionary funding and is associated with CFDA number 15.931, "Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations." The project focus, based on the title and CFDA alignment, centers on youth programming connected to conservation and skill-building, specifically framed as a "Trades Skills Team" supporting Lowell National Historical Park during the 2014-2015 school year. While the short notice does not list project tasks in the text provided, the framing strongly indicates structured youth engagement, likely involving supervised hands-on trades or maintenance-related skill development that also contributes to park stewardship or preservation activities.
Funding details are clearly defined and fixed. The estimated total funding is $25,000, and both the award floor and award ceiling are also $25,000, which indicates the NPS anticipated issuing one award at exactly that amount. The notice lists an expected number of awards as one. A cost-sharing or matching requirement applies, meaning the recipient is expected to contribute non-federal resources (cash or in-kind) toward the total project cost, though the notice does not specify the match percentage or what forms of match are acceptable.
The eligibility section reinforces that this is a single-source action and that other applicants are not being solicited. "Eligible applicants" is effectively limited in practice to CTI for this particular action, and the listing exists to satisfy transparency and public notice expectations around noncompetitive federal financial assistance decisions. The posting date is June 3, 2014, with an original and current closing date of June 8, 2014, and an archive date of June 9, 2014. Those dates function more like an announcement window than a deadline for applicants, since no applications are being requested.
For administrative or access questions, the listed point of contact is Jennifer Fleming, an NPS Northeast Region Agreements Officer, reachable by phone at 215-597-6476. The notice also directs readers to the attachment in the full announcement for complete details, and it points to Grants.gov navigation and general grants guidance resources, even though the announcement itself is not intended to generate submissions from the public.
