Opportunity Summary:

The Notice of Intent to Award titled "ProRanger Philadelphia Program - Recruitment Phase" is a National Park Service (NPS) announcement meant strictly as a public notification, not as an open funding competition. In other words, it is not a request for applications and it is not inviting other organizations to apply through Grants.gov. The purpose of the notice is to document that the NPS intends to fund a specific set of project activities through a non-competitive cooperative agreement action, rather than running a full and open solicitation.

This opportunity is issued by the United States Department of the Interior, National Park Service, and is listed under Funding Opportunity Number NPS 15 NERO 0015. The funding instrument is a Cooperative Agreement, and the associated CFDA (now commonly referred to as Assistance Listing) number is 15.931, "Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations." The activity category is labeled as "Other," with the explanation emphasizing that the announcement is a notice of intent to award without full and open competition. No cost sharing or matching is required for this award.

The notice specifies that the NPS plans to make one award, and the recipient is explicitly identified as Temple University. The award is tied to Task Agreement P15AC00141 under an existing Cooperative Agreement framework, P14AC00154. Because it is a non-competitive action directed to a named partner, the "eligible applicants" field effectively does not function as an open eligibility standard; it is included largely for administrative completeness while the text clarifies the intended recipient and the sole-source nature of the action.

Financially, the announcement lists an estimated total funding amount of $51,284. The award floor and award ceiling are both $51,284, which typically indicates that the amount is fixed for the described scope of work rather than a variable range dependent on application quality or negotiated budgets across multiple grantees.

In terms of timing, the notice was posted and created on January 9, 2015, with an original and current closing date of January 19, 2015, and an archive date of January 20, 2015. In a notice-of-intent context, those dates generally reflect the public posting window for transparency and recordkeeping, not a period during which proposals are being accepted from the public.

For further details, the notice directs readers to consult the attachment available through the "Full Announcement" link on Grants.gov, which would contain the formal justification, scope, and administrative language supporting the intent to make the award without competition. For access issues or questions about the announcement, the listed contact is Jennifer Fleming, NPS NER Agreements Officer, at (215) 597-6476.
