Opportunity Summary:
This notice describes a National Park Service (NPS), U.S. Department of the Interior, intention to make a single, non-competitive award for a place-based education partnership connected to Marsh-Billings-Rockefeller National Historical Park in Woodstock, Vermont. It is explicitly a Notice of Intent to Award and not a request for applications, meaning the NPS was not soliciting proposals from the public. Instead, the purpose of the posting is to provide transparency that the agency planned to fund a specific set of project activities through a new cooperative agreement with a named partner.
The funding opportunity is identified as Funding Opportunity Number NPS 13 NERO 0125 and is associated with CFDA 15.954 (National Park Service Conservation, Protection, Outreach, and Education). The funding instrument is a Cooperative Agreement, which generally indicates that the NPS expected to have substantial involvement in the project (for example, collaborating on planning, delivering programming, or providing technical assistance), rather than simply issuing a hands-off grant. The activity category is listed as "Other," with the explanation clarifying that the "Other" designation is tied to the fact that this is a notice announcing a non-competitive intent to fund, rather than an open competition.
The notice states that the NPS intended to enter into Cooperative Agreement P13AC01181 with Woodstock Union High School. Eligibility is effectively limited to a single recipient, described as a single-source award to an Independent School District. Only one award was expected. The total anticipated funding amount is $32,759, and both the award floor and ceiling are the same ($32,759), which signals the award amount was fixed for this action rather than a range. The opportunity also indicates there is a cost-sharing or matching requirement, meaning the recipient would be expected to contribute resources (cash, in-kind support, or other allowable contributions) to meet the project budget requirements.
In terms of timing, the notice was posted and created on August 16, 2013, with an original and current closing date of August 20, 2013, and an archive date of August 21, 2013. In practice, that short window reflects the administrative nature of the posting: it functions as public notice of an intended award rather than a period for submitting applications. Anyone seeking the full details was directed to the attachment under the full announcement link, and general Grants.gov navigation support was referenced through the site contact links.
For access issues or questions about the full announcement content, the listed point of contact was Jennifer Fleming, NPS NER Agreements Officer, at 215-597-6476.
