Opportunity Summary:

This notice is a National Park Service (NPS) announcement stating its intent to make a single, specific award for the Youth Ambassador Program Rivers and Trails Project. It is explicitly not a request for applications and not an open competition. Instead, it serves as a public transparency posting that the NPS plans to fund a defined set of project activities through a new cooperative agreement, identified as P12AC30708, with 3rd EyE Youth Empowerment, Inc.

The opportunity is listed under Funding Opportunity Number NPS 12 NERO 0043 and is categorized as a discretionary award using a Cooperative Agreement funding instrument. The program context is tied to CFDA 15.921, Rivers, Trails and Conservation Assistance (RTCA), with the category explanation indicating the RTCA Youth Ambassador Program Rivers and Trails Project. The announcement anticipates one award total, with an estimated total funding amount of $49,420. Both the award ceiling and floor are the same ($49,420), which signals a fixed award amount rather than a range. No cost sharing or matching funds are required.

Eligibility is not broadly available to the public for this notice because the NPS is not soliciting proposals. The recipient identified for this non-competitive award is a nonprofit organization with IRS 501(c)(3) status, specifically 3rd EyE Youth Empowerment, Inc. The listing includes a short posting window (posted June 18, 2012, with an original and current closing date of June 24, 2012, and an archive date of June 25, 2012), which is typical for a notice-of-intent posting where the agency is documenting its intention rather than running a full application cycle.

For anyone needing more detail, the notice indicates that complete information is contained in an attachment available through the "Full Announcement" link on the Grants.gov posting. If there are access issues obtaining the full announcement electronically, the point of contact provided is Jennifer Fleming, Contract/Agreements Specialist at the National Park Service, reachable by phone at 215-597-6476.
