Opportunity Summary:
This Notice of Intent to Award is a National Park Service (NPS), U.S. Department of the Interior posting meant to publicly document the agency's plan to fund a specific project called "Outdoor Nation Northeast Campus Clubs." It is explicitly not a request for applications and not an open competition. Instead, it serves as a transparency notice that NPS intends to move forward with a single, pre-identified recipient under an existing cooperative agreement framework.
The opportunity is listed under Funding Opportunity Number NPS 14 NERO 0012 and falls under a discretionary cooperative agreement. The related CFDA (Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance) number is 15.954, which covers National Park Service activities focused on conservation, protection, outreach, and education. The posting states that the award will be made without full and open competition through Task Agreement P14AC00329 with The Outdoor Foundation, and that this task agreement sits under an already-established Cooperative Agreement Number P09AC00425 (formerly H2240090061). In practical terms, that means NPS is extending or implementing work through an existing partnership vehicle rather than running a new, competitive grant cycle.
Funding details are fixed and narrow because this is a single-source action. The expected number of awards is one, with an estimated total funding amount of $51,000. The award ceiling and floor are both $51,000, indicating the amount is predetermined rather than variable based on proposals or budgets submitted by multiple applicants. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement described in the posting, so the federal funding amount is not conditioned on the recipient providing a match.
Eligibility language appears largely as a formality since the notice is not open for applications. The announcement indicates the award is intended for The Outdoor Foundation, identified as a nonprofit entity, and characterizes the action as a single-source award. Although the listing includes an "Eligible Applicants" field mentioning nonprofits that do not have 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education), the core message remains that this particular funding is already targeted and not available for other organizations to apply to.
The timeline provided reflects the short public-notice window typical for this kind of posting. The notice was posted and created on April 10, 2014, with an original and current closing date of April 14, 2014, and an archive date of April 15, 2014. That schedule signals that the federal portal entry was intended mainly to inform the public and document the action, not to solicit proposals over an extended application period.
For anyone needing access to the full documentation but having trouble retrieving it electronically, the listing provides a direct NPS contact: Jennifer Fleming, NPS NER Agreements Officer, at 215-597-6476. The notice also points users to the Grants.gov "Contact Us" resources for general guidance on navigating the system, although again, the posting itself is not structured for applicants because no applications are being accepted.
