Opportunity Summary:
This notice is a National Park Service (NPS) "Notice of Intent to Award" for a cooperative agreement connected to the Park for Every Classroom program at Marsh-Billings-Rockefeller National Historical Park in Vermont. It is not an open grant competition and it is not requesting applications. Instead, it functions as a public transparency announcement that the NPS plans to make a single award to support specific education-related project activities, and it explains that the award will be made without full and open competition.
The opportunity is listed as a discretionary funding action using a Cooperative Agreement, which generally means the NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the work (for example, coordinating program delivery, collaborating on educational content, or working jointly on implementation and oversight). The funded activity category is Education, and the intent is to support the Park for Every Classroom program specifically in partnership with Shelburne Farms. While the detailed scope is referenced as being in an attachment under the full announcement, the summary makes clear that the purpose is to continue or advance that program through a new cooperative agreement rather than to solicit new providers.
The award structure is straightforward: the NPS expects to make one award total. The estimated total funding is $50,000, and both the award ceiling and award floor are also $50,000, indicating a single fixed award amount rather than a range. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not required to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of receiving the award.
Eligibility is narrowly defined because this is a non-competitive intent to fund a specific recipient. The notice states the recipient is a nonprofit organization with 501(c)(3) status recognized by the IRS. In other words, although the posting includes an "Eligible Applicants" field, the practical reality is that this announcement is not open to general applicants and is published primarily to document the agency's intention to award to the identified partner, Shelburne Farms, for the stated program purpose.
Key administrative details include the funding opportunity number (NPS 12 NERO 0041) and the posting timeline: it was posted June 18, 2012, with an original and current closing date of June 24, 2012, and archived on June 25, 2012. Those dates reflect the short window typical of intent-to-award notices, which are often posted briefly to meet public notice requirements rather than to allow time for proposal development.
For anyone needing the full announcement materials (including the attachment that contains the complete details), the notice directs users to the "Full Announcement" link on Grants.gov. If there are problems accessing the announcement electronically, the point of contact listed is Jennifer Fleming, Contract/Agreements Specialist at the National Park Service, reachable by phone at 215-597-6476.
