Opportunity Summary:
This posting is a Notice of Intent to Award from the United States Department of the Interior, National Park Service (NPS). It is explicitly not a request for applications, meaning the NPS is not seeking proposals from the public or running a competitive grant round. Instead, it serves as a public transparency notice that the NPS intends to move forward with a specific, pre-identified partner and agreement arrangement without full and open competition.
The opportunity is listed under Funding Opportunity Number NPS 12 NERO 0038 and uses a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument. Cooperative agreements are typically used when the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement in carrying out the project, as opposed to a standard grant where the recipient generally operates more independently. The activity category is Natural Resources, and the associated CFDA number is 15.931, Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations, indicating the work relates to conservation-focused efforts that may involve youth service components.
The NPS states it intends to enter into Task Agreement P12AC10655 under Cooperative Agreement P12AC30543 with the Maryland Department of Natural Resources (MDDNR). The key point is that this is a sole-source style action (not full and open competition), and the notice is meant to document that intent publicly. Specific project activities are referenced but not described in the text provided; the announcement directs readers to the attachment in the full announcement for complete details.
Funding details are straightforward and fixed. The expected number of awards is one, with an estimated total funding amount of $65,000. The award ceiling and award floor are both $65,000, which indicates the amount is effectively predetermined rather than variable. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement listed. Eligible applicants are limited to state governments, consistent with the named partner being a state agency (MDDNR).
The timeline shown reflects the administrative lifecycle of the notice rather than an application window. It was posted on June 18, 2012, with an original and current closing date of June 22, 2012, and an archive date of July 22, 2012. Because the notice is not soliciting applications, these dates function more as posting and record-keeping milestones than as deadlines for submitting proposals.
For access issues related to the full announcement materials, the listed point of contact is Peggy Wall, Administrative Officer, reachable by phone at 410-260-2473. The notice also references an email field but does not include an actual email address in the provided text.
