Opportunity Summary:

The "NPS Grand Teton Stabilize Cabins" opportunity (Funding Announcement Number P11AT00128) is a National Park Service notice of intent to award, meaning it is not an open call for applications. Instead, it serves as a public notification that NPS planned to make a single award without full and open competition. The award was structured as a cooperative agreement task award issued under an existing umbrella cooperative agreement (H1233060008), with an anticipated total federal amount of $46,119.24 (roughly $46,000 shown in the listing). No cost share or matching funds were required. The project was posted May 3, 2011, with a very short notice window through May 5, 2011, and it was expected to run through March 30, 2012.

The project itself focused on stabilizing historic cabins in Grand Teton National Park, specifically targeting two properties listed on the National Register that had deteriorated due to a lack of routine, cyclical maintenance. Funding came from the Cultural Resource Preservation Program, using Historic Structures Stabilization funds, and the work was framed as technically challenging preservation and stabilization activity intended both to protect cultural resources and to strengthen regional collaboration among preservation-focused partners.

Colorado Preservation, Inc. (a 501(c)(3) nonprofit) was named as the intended recipient. The organization was selected under the Department of the Interior single-source policy criteria "Unique Qualifications" (criterion #4). The justification was that Colorado Preservation, Inc. already held the master cooperative agreement authorizing participation in specific tasks and could provide the specialized technical support needed for this stabilization work, making competition impracticable for this specific task order. The announcement also highlights the nonprofit's broader mission across the Rocky Mountain region: providing preservation information, education, training, expertise, and advocacy through partnerships with property owners, nonprofits, educators, and government entities.

A key feature of the award was hands-on public and staff involvement. NPS emphasized that the public purpose would be advanced through volunteer participation throughout the project, with the idea that volunteers would gain education and job training, build responsible citizenship, and develop a stronger understanding of cultural resource stewardship. NPS also committed substantial involvement, which is typical of a cooperative agreement. Seven NPS trail crew employees were expected to be on site for the full duration of the work, collaborating directly with Colorado Preservation, Inc. project leaders. In addition, the project leader planned to provide a one-day training for park employees on log crown replacement, a specialized preservation technique relevant to historic log structures. NPS cultural resource management staff would handle compliance requirements and participate in at least part of the on-the-ground effort.

Administratively, the listing categorized the instrument as a cooperative agreement (task award) under CFDA 15.912 (National Historic Landmark). The statutory authorities cited include several provisions of Title 16 related to NPS and historic preservation authorities. The expected number of awards was one. The NPS point of contact for the notice was Tina Holland, Financial Assistance Agreements Officer, at Grand Teton National Park.
