Opportunity Summary:
This notice describes a National Park Service (NPS), U.S. Department of the Interior intent to make a single cooperative agreement award connected to youth conservation work at Marsh-Billings-Rockefeller National Historical Park in Vermont. The announcement is explicitly labeled as a "Notice of Intent to Award" and not a competitive grant solicitation, meaning the NPS is not asking the public to submit applications or proposals. Instead, it serves as a transparency notice that the agency plans to fund a specific set of project activities through an agreement issued without full and open competition.
The opportunity is listed under Funding Opportunity Number NPS 14 NERO 0047 and carries the title "Notice of Intent to Award Vermont Youth Conservation Corps Partnership Program at Marsh Billings Rockefeller National Historical Park." The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates the NPS expects to have substantial involvement in carrying out the supported activities rather than simply issuing a hands-off grant. The program is associated with CFDA number 15.931, "Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations," signaling that the work is tied to conservation-related projects delivered through youth service and stewardship organizations.
The award is intended to go to a single recipient: the Vermont Youth Conservation Corps, identified in the notice as a nonprofit organization with IRS 501(c) status. Because this is a single-source action, the eligibility language is mainly explanatory and does not invite other applicants to compete. The posting effectively documents the NPS decision to partner with this specific organization for the planned project work.
Financially, the notice indicates one expected award with a total estimated funding amount of $48,331. The award ceiling and award floor are both $48,331, which typically means the agency anticipates awarding a fixed amount rather than a range. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement listed, so the recipient is not expected to provide mandatory non-federal match as a condition of the award.
In terms of timing, the notice was posted and created on June 13, 2014, with an original and current closing date of June 18, 2014, and an archive date of June 19, 2014. In this context, the "closing date" functions more like the end of the public notice window rather than a deadline for applications, since the notice is not soliciting proposals. Anyone looking for the full details of the planned activities is directed to the attachment available through the "Full Announcement" link on the Grants.gov posting.
For assistance obtaining the announcement materials or if there are issues accessing the notice electronically, the listed point of contact is Jennifer Fleming, NPS NER Agreements Officer, reachable by phone at 215-597-6476.
