Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS), within the U.S. Department of the Interior, published a Notice of Intent to Award for a project connected to the Oil Region National Heritage Area. This announcement is specifically a public notice that NPS plans to provide additional funding to an existing agreement, and it is not a competitive grant solicitation. In other words, the agency is not requesting applications or opening a competition; it is signaling its intent to fund a particular recipient and scope of work without full and open competition.
The funding is structured as a Cooperative Agreement, which typically means the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement in the supported activities compared to a standard grant. The money would be added as additional funds to an existing Task Agreement (J4516109000) under an existing Cooperative Agreement (H4512109000). The opportunity is labeled as an earmark and falls under the environment activity category, indicating it is tied to a defined heritage or conservation-related purpose rather than a broad, open-ended program competition.
Financially, the total amount is fixed at $303,000, with the award ceiling and floor both listed as $303,000, and the expected number of awards is one. A cost sharing or matching requirement applies, meaning the recipient is expected to contribute non-federal resources or match funds consistent with the terms of the underlying cooperative agreement and task agreement. The listing shows a CFDA number of 00.000 (Not Elsewhere Classified), which often appears in notices where the funding does not align neatly with a standard CFDA program code.
Eligibility is limited to nonprofit organizations with IRS 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), but because the notice is not requesting applications and is meant to document a non-competitive intent to award, the practical effect is that it does not function as an open opportunity for new applicants. Key dates show it was posted on September 27, 2010, with an original and current closing date of October 1, 2010, and archived on October 2, 2010, reinforcing that the notice served as a short public posting rather than an application window.
For anyone needing the full announcement materials but unable to access them electronically, the notice provides a point of contact: Dawn Mach, Contract Specialist, at (215) 597-0056.
