Opportunity Summary:
This notice is a public announcement from the U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service (NPS) stating its intent to make a single cooperative agreement award for work related to National Register of Historic Places documentation at Longfellow House-Washington's Headquarters National Historic Site. It is explicitly not a request for applications, meaning the NPS is not conducting an open competition or inviting the public to submit proposals. Instead, the purpose is transparency: the agency is notifying the public that it plans to fund specific project activities through a non-competitive process.
The opportunity is listed as a discretionary funding action under Funding Opportunity Number NPS 16 NERO 0179, with the activity category labeled as "Other" (with further clarification referenced in the full notice). The assistance listing (CFDA) associated with it is 15.945. The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates that NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the project during performance, such as providing direction, collaboration, review, or coordination, rather than simply issuing a grant and stepping back.
Financially, the notice indicates an award ceiling of $58,750 and anticipates one award total, reinforcing that this is a targeted, single-project action. The notice was created on September 11, 2016, with an original closing date of September 21, 2016. In the context of a notice of intent to award, that closing date typically functions more like a posting period for the public notice rather than an application deadline, since the announcement is not seeking submissions.
Eligibility is broadly labeled as "Others," with the details deferred to an additional eligibility explanation in the full announcement materials. Practically, that phrasing usually signals the intended recipient may fall outside the most common applicant categories (such as state governments or universities) and that the specific eligibility rationale and selection basis are described in the attached or linked documentation. The notice repeatedly points readers to the "Related Documents" section for complete information, which would contain the justification for limiting competition, the scope of work for the National Register documentation effort, and any partner or recipient identification, as well as administrative details.
