Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity is a National Park Service (NPS) Notice of Intent to make a single award to a specific recipient: the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department, working through the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) for the State of Oregon. The purpose of the award is narrowly defined: to complete a Multiple Property Documentation Form (often abbreviated as an MPDF) for the Oregon Trail as it runs through the State of Oregon. An MPDF is a National Register of Historic Places documentation tool used to establish a historic context and a standardized framework for evaluating and nominating groups of related historic properties. In practical terms, this project is about creating a comprehensive, consistent set of historical and registration criteria that can be used to identify, evaluate, and potentially list trail-related resources in Oregon under a unified approach.
The opportunity is issued under Funding Opportunity Number NPSNOIIMRO111012 and is titled "Prepare a Multiple Property Documentation Form for the Oregon Trail through the State of Oregon." It is categorized as discretionary funding and uses a Cooperative Agreement as the funding instrument, which typically indicates substantial involvement by the federal agency in carrying out the work (for example, coordination, technical input, review, or collaboration during development of the documentation). The funding activity aligns with National Trails work and falls under CFDA 15.935, National Trails System Projects. The announcement indicates there is no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning the recipient is not required to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of receiving the award.
Financially, the NPS anticipates making one award with an estimated total funding amount of $30,000. The listing shows an award ceiling and floor of $0, which generally reflects that the specific dollar parameters are being handled through the referenced task agreement under an existing cooperative agreement rather than through a typical open competitive range. Because this is a Notice of Intent to award, it is not structured as an open competition for multiple applicants; instead, it signals the agency's plan to proceed with the identified recipient, the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department via Oregon SHPO, for this specific scope of work.
The timeline in the posting reflects the administrative nature of a Notice of Intent. It was posted and created on June 13, 2011, with an original and current closing date of June 14, 2011, and an archive date of June 15, 2011. These short windows are common for notices that are meant to document an intended award action rather than solicit broad proposals. The sponsoring agency is the National Park Service, and the contact listed for access issues is Trish Fresquez Hernandez, Contract Specialist, reachable by phone at 505-988-6122.
Overall, the opportunity is best understood as a targeted federal-state collaboration to produce a key historic preservation planning document for the Oregon Trail in Oregon. By developing an MPDF, the project supports consistent identification and evaluation of trail-related historic properties, strengthens documentation for preservation decisions, and helps align Oregon Trail resource work with National Register standards and National Trails System goals.
