Opportunity Summary:
This notice is a National Park Service (NPS) "Notice of Intent to Award" for work on the Appalachian National Scenic Trail in Vermont, specifically covering rehabilitation along the segment from IP Road north over Stratton Summit down to the second IP Road crossing, using two field crews (Crew 1 and Crew 2). The key point is that this is not a competitive grant opportunity and not a request for applications. Instead, it is a public transparency posting explaining that NPS plans to fund a specific set of project activities through an existing cooperative relationship.
The award is being made as a cooperative agreement action, using a task agreement (P13AC00493) issued under an already-established cooperative agreement (P12AC30544) with the Vermont Youth Conservation Corps (VYCC). The notice explicitly states the work will be funded "without full and open competition," meaning NPS is not soliciting proposals from other organizations for this effort. The announcement is essentially a formal notification that the agency intends to proceed with a single-source award to VYCC.
Financially, the opportunity lists an estimated total funding amount of $58,000, and both the award floor and award ceiling are also set at $58,000, indicating the planned award amount is fixed rather than a range. Only one award is expected. The posting also indicates there is a cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is expected to contribute some form of match (cash or allowable in-kind support) consistent with the cooperative agreement terms, though the exact match level would be detailed in the full attachment referenced in the announcement.
In terms of eligibility, the listing identifies eligible applicants generally as 501(c)(3) nonprofits (excluding institutions of higher education), but it also clarifies that this is a single-source award to a nonprofit organization, which in practice means the intended recipient is VYCC and the notice is not open to other applicants. The associated CFDA program number is 15.931, "Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations," which aligns with youth corps-led conservation and trail stewardship projects.
Administratively, the opportunity was posted and created on June 11, 2013, with an original and current closing date of June 16, 2013, and an archive date of June 17, 2013. These dates function more as publication and recordkeeping milestones on Grants.gov rather than an application window, since no applications are being accepted.
For anyone needing the official details, the notice instructs readers to consult the attachment available through the "Full Announcement" link on Grants.gov. For access issues or questions about the announcement itself, the contact listed is Jennifer Fleming, NPS Northeast Region Agreements Officer, at 215-597-6476.
