Opportunity Summary:
This notice describes a National Park Service (NPS) funding action tied to Hurricane Sandy recovery work, specifically focused on science communication and outreach about coastal storms. It is published as a public transparency step, not as a competitive grant solicitation. In plain terms, the NPS is announcing that it plans to fund a specific project with a specific partner, and it is doing so without opening the opportunity up for other applicants to compete.
The opportunity is listed under Funding Opportunity Number NPS 15 NERO 0019 and is titled "Notice of Intent to Award Post Hurricane Sandy - Science Communication Outreach about Coastal Storms." The funding mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which typically means the federal agency expects to be actively involved in the project rather than simply issuing a hands-off grant. The activity category is broadly labeled "Other," with the clarification that the key point here is the notice itself: it is an intent to award rather than a request for proposals.
The project is structured as a single award (Expected Awards: 1) with a total estimated funding amount of $67,440. The award floor and ceiling are both $67,440, indicating the amount is fixed for this action rather than a range. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not expected to contribute additional non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the award.
Eligibility is effectively closed because this is a single-source action. The notice states that the award is intended for the University of Rhode Island, identified as a public/state-controlled institution of higher education. The work is tied to Task Agreement P15AC00288 under an existing Cooperative Agreement (P14AC00888). That means the NPS is using an already-established cooperative agreement framework with the University of Rhode Island and issuing a task agreement for this particular scope of work.
Timing details reinforce that this is a notice rather than an open competition. The notice was posted and created on March 10, 2015, with an original and current closing date of March 19, 2015, and it was archived on March 20, 2015. Those dates function more like an administrative window for public notice than an application period, since the announcement explicitly says it is not accepting applications.
For anyone looking for the full scope of work or the formal justification and documentation, the notice directs readers to an attachment accessible through the "Full Announcement" link (as it appeared on Grants.gov). The listed contact for access issues or questions about the announcement is Jennifer Fleming, NPS Northeast Region Agreements Officer, reachable by phone at 215-597-6476.
