Opportunity Summary:
This notice describes a National Park Service (NPS), U.S. Department of the Interior, intent to make a single, non-competitive award tied to the ProRanger Philadelphia Program for Fall 2015, covering recruitment and the Phase I internship and class phase. The key point is that it is not a solicitation and not an opportunity for the public to apply. Instead, it is a transparency posting meant to inform the public that NPS plans to fund a specific set of project activities through a task agreement issued under an existing cooperative agreement (Cooperative Agreement No. P14AC00154), rather than conducting a full and open competition.
The award is categorized as a discretionary funding action and will be issued as a cooperative agreement, which generally means NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the project alongside the recipient (for example, collaboration on program delivery, oversight, or coordinated implementation). The funding activity is placed under an "Other" category, with the explanation clarifying that the posting is a "Notice of Intent to Award" rather than a standard competitive grant program announcement.
The intended recipient is explicitly identified: Temple University, described as a state-controlled institution of higher learning. Because the notice states this is a single-source award, eligibility is effectively limited to that institution for this specific action. The public posting fulfills the requirement to announce the government’s intention to fund without competition, but it does not invite proposals, applications, or alternative submissions from other organizations.
Financially, the notice lists an estimated total funding amount of $140,888, and both the award ceiling and award floor are also $140,888, indicating the award amount is fixed at that level for the described work. The funding is associated with CFDA 15.931, titled "Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations," which signals the broader federal assistance program area this project aligns with. The announcement also indicates a cost-sharing or matching requirement applies, meaning the project is expected to include some level of non-federal contribution (though the specific matching terms would be detailed in the full announcement or the underlying agreement documents).
In terms of timing and status, the notice was posted and created on June 18, 2015, with a listed closing date of June 27, 2015, and an archive date of June 28, 2015. In notices like this, the closing date typically functions more as an administrative endpoint for the posting window on Grants.gov rather than an application deadline, since applications are not being requested.
For anyone trying to obtain the complete official details, the notice directs readers to the "Related Documents" section on Grants.gov and to open the "Full Announcement." It also provides a point of contact for access issues: Jennifer Fleming, NPS NER Agreements Officer, at (215) 597-6476.
