Opportunity Summary:
This notice describes a National Park Service (NPS), U.S. Department of the Interior, intent to make a single, non-competitive award to support implementation of the Upper Delaware River management framework for FY 2014. It is explicitly a public notice only and not a request for applications, meaning no outside organizations are being invited to apply and no competitive selection process is being conducted. Instead, the NPS is announcing that it plans to add funds to an already-existing cooperative agreement, identified as P11AC90818, with the Upper Delaware Council, Inc. (UDC).
The opportunity is listed under Funding Opportunity Number NPS 14 NERO 0001 and is categorized as a discretionary award using a cooperative agreement instrument. The assistance listing referenced is CFDA 15.921, Rivers, Trails and Conservation Assistance. The announcement anticipates one award, and the funding amount is fixed: an estimated total of $300,000, with an award floor and ceiling both set at $300,000. A cost sharing or matching requirement is indicated as part of the award structure, although the notice itself does not spell out the ratio or the specific form of match in the text provided.
Eligibility is restricted to a single recipient: Upper Delaware Council, Inc., described as a nonprofit entity. The justification for limiting eligibility is tied to legislative intent and the statutory framework governing management of the Upper Delaware Scenic and Recreational River. The notice cites Section 704 of Public Law 95-625, which directed the Secretary to approve a River Management Plan and recommended creation of an intergovernmental Upper Delaware council to carry out the cooperative management system described in that law. UDC was established in 1988 specifically to implement that cooperative management system, and the NPS states that this statutory and planning history is the basis for the sole-source decision.
From a timeline standpoint, the notice was posted on November 6, 2013, with an original closing date of November 11, 2013, later reflected with a current closing date of May 5, 2014, and an archive date of May 6, 2014. While these dates appear in the grants listing, they function more as administrative markers for the public notice in Grants.gov rather than as a window for application submission, since the announcement is not open for proposals.
For additional details beyond the summary language included in the listing, the NPS directs readers to the attachment available through the full announcement link. The named point of contact for access issues is Jennifer Fleming, Agreements Officer for the National Park Service Northeast Region, reachable by phone at 215-597-6476.
