Opportunity Summary:

The Paterson Great Falls NHP Youth Conservation Corps opportunity is a National Park Service (NPS), U.S. Department of the Interior notice announcing the agency's intent to make a continuation award under an existing cooperative agreement. It is explicitly labeled as a Notice of Intent to Award and not a request for applications, meaning the NPS is not seeking proposals from the general public through a competitive process. Instead, the announcement serves as formal public notice that the NPS plans to fund specific project activities without full and open competition by adding funds to an existing agreement.

The funding is tied to Cooperative Agreement H4504093046 and would be provided through a modification (identified as modification 01). The opportunity is categorized as continuation funding and uses a cooperative agreement instrument, which typically indicates that the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement in carrying out the funded activities, rather than simply issuing a grant with minimal federal participation. The activity category is listed as Environment, and the associated CFDA number is 15.931, described as Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations, suggesting the project is focused on conservation work conducted through a youth corps or youth service framework connected to Paterson Great Falls National Historical Park.

Financially, the total anticipated funding is $135,000, with the award floor and ceiling both set at $135,000, indicating a single fixed award amount rather than a range. The announcement anticipates one award. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not expected to contribute a required non-federal match as a condition of receiving these funds.

Eligibility is listed as nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education). However, because this is not an open solicitation and is intended to fund activities under an existing cooperative agreement, the practical effect is that this notice is primarily informational rather than an opportunity for new applicants to compete.

The notice was posted and created on September 13, 2010, with an original and current closing date of September 18, 2010, and it was archived on September 19, 2010. Anyone unable to access the full announcement electronically is directed to contact Dawn Mach, Contract Specialist, at 215-597-0056 for assistance, and the listing references "Paterson Great Falls YCC," reinforcing that the funded work is connected to a Youth Conservation Corps effort at the park.
