Opportunity Summary:

This notice is a National Park Service (NPS) announcement stating its intent to make an award for work connected to the Shenandoah Valley Battlefields National Historic District. It is not an open grant competition and it is not asking the public to submit applications. Instead, it functions as a transparency notice explaining that NPS plans to fund specific project activities through a non-competitive process, meaning the agency is not conducting "full and open competition" for this funding action.

The opportunity is listed under the Department of the Interior, National Park Service (DOI-NPS), and it is categorized as a discretionary funding opportunity. The planned funding mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates substantial involvement by the federal agency during the project (for example, coordination, technical input, or shared responsibilities), rather than a more hands-off grant. The activity category is identified as regional development, aligning with work that supports regional heritage, preservation, tourism, interpretation, or related planning and coordination efforts in the Shenandoah Valley battlefields area.

The funding opportunity is identified by the title "NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD - Shenandoah Valley Battlefields National Historic District" and the opportunity number "NPS 16 NERO 0027." It is associated with CFDA number 15.939, which points to the federal assistance program under which the funding is being issued. The notice indicates an expected single award (ExpectedAwards: 1) with an award ceiling of $349,609, meaning the anticipated maximum federal amount for this action is $349,609.

In terms of timing, the opportunity was created and posted on March 21, 2016, and it lists a closing date of March 30, 2016 (both original and current closing dates are the same). For this type of notice, the "closing date" is best understood as the end of the public notice period rather than a deadline to submit an application, since the announcement explicitly states it is not requesting applications.

Eligibility is broadly labeled as "Others," with the note to refer to additional eligibility information in the full listing for clarification. However, because the notice is specifically about an intent to award without competition, the practical takeaway is that the NPS had already identified the intended recipient or partner organization for the cooperative agreement and is providing a public record of that intention, rather than inviting new applicants to compete for the funds.
