Opportunity Summary:
This notice is a National Park Service (NPS), U.S. Department of the Interior funding announcement titled "Notice of Intent to Award The Lower East Side Tenement National Historic Site, New York" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS 15 NERO 0004). It is not an open grant solicitation and is not requesting applications. Instead, it serves as a public transparency notice that the NPS intends to provide funding to a specific partner without full and open competition.
The planned funding would be issued as a cooperative agreement, meaning the NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the supported work rather than simply providing a pass-through grant. The action described is a modification to an existing cooperative agreement to add additional funds. The agreement referenced is Cooperative Agreement P13AC00297 (formerly P12AC30052), and the named partner organization is the Lower East Side Tenement Museum, Inc., identified as a nonprofit entity.
The opportunity falls under CFDA (now commonly referred to as Assistance Listing) 15.954, "National Park Service Conservation, Protection, Outreach, and Education." The funding activity category is listed as "Other," with the clarification essentially being that the purpose of the posting is a notice of intent to award rather than a competitive program announcement. The notice indicates there is expected to be one award.
Financially, the announcement lists an estimated total funding amount of $249,000, with an award ceiling of $249,000 and an award floor of $249,000, signaling that the intended award amount is fixed at that level. The posting also states that cost sharing or matching is required, meaning the recipient is expected to contribute a portion of project costs through non-federal funds or allowable in-kind contributions, consistent with the terms of the underlying cooperative agreement and applicable NPS policies.
From a timing standpoint, the notice was posted and created on November 24, 2014, with an original and current closing date of November 30, 2014, and an archive date of December 1, 2014. In the context of a notice of intent to award, these dates function more as administrative posting windows on Grants.gov rather than a period for receiving proposals, since the award is not being competed.
For anyone needing the full details, the notice directs readers to an attachment available via the "Full Announcement" link on the Grants.gov posting. It also provides a point of contact for access issues: Jennifer Fleming, NPS Northeast Region Agreements Officer, reachable by phone at 215-597-6476.
