Opportunity Summary:

This grant opportunity is a National Park Service (NPS) "Notice of Intent to Award" for a project titled "Preservation, Restoration, and Rehabilitation of Historic Landscape at Marsh-Billings-Rockefeller National Historical Park (NHP)." The key point is that it is not an open funding competition and not a request for applications. Instead, NPS is issuing a public notice that it plans to make a single, non-competitive (sole source) award for a specific set of project activities.

The agency behind the notice is the United States Department of the Interior, National Park Service. The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, meaning the work is expected to involve substantial NPS involvement or collaboration rather than a typical hands-off grant. The award is being made under an existing cooperative agreement (H1818 09 0005), using a specific task agreement identified as P13AC00180. The intended recipient is the Woodstock Foundation, Inc., a nonprofit organization with 501(c)(3) status, and the notice indicates the award will be made without "full and open competition," which is the standard government term for a non-competitive award process.

The project scope, as described in the title and summary, focuses on preservation, restoration, and rehabilitation of a historic landscape at Marsh-Billings-Rockefeller NHP. While the public notice does not lay out detailed work tasks in the text provided, the stated purpose is clearly tied to protecting and improving historic landscape features at this specific national historical park. The funding activity category is listed as "Other," with clarification that the announcement exists to notify the public of NPS's intention to fund these landscape-related activities through this sole source action.

Financially, the notice anticipates one award with a total estimated funding amount of $46,800. The award ceiling and award floor are both $46,800, which strongly suggests the funding amount is fixed for this task and not a range. The listing includes a cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning the recipient is expected to contribute some portion of project costs or provide an eligible match, though the exact match ratio or amount is not specified in the text provided and would typically be detailed in the attachment referenced in the full announcement.

In terms of timing and administrative details, the opportunity was posted and created on April 3, 2013, with an original and current closing date of April 9, 2013, and an archive date of April 10, 2013. Because this is not an application solicitation, the "closing date" functions more as the end of the public notice period rather than a deadline for submitting proposals. The associated CFDA program number is 15.954, titled "National Park Service Conservation, Protection, Outreach, and Education," which is the broader program area under which this cooperative agreement action is categorized.

Eligibility is effectively limited to the sole source recipient identified in the notice. While the eligible applicant type is listed as 501(c)(3) nonprofits (other than institutions of higher education), the eligibility information further clarifies that it is a sole source award to a nonprofit corporation, and the description explicitly names the Woodstock Foundation, Inc. as the organization receiving the task agreement under the existing cooperative agreement. In practical terms, other organizations are not being invited to apply, since the purpose is transparency about a planned non-competitive award rather than competition for funding.

For additional details, the notice points readers to an attachment accessible through the "Full Announcement" link (as posted on Grants.gov). For assistance accessing the announcement, the contact provided is Jennifer Fleming, Contract/Agreements Specialist at the National Park Service, with the phone number 215-597-6476.
