Opportunity Summary:
The "Preservation and Maintenance Program for the Estate Gardens at Marsh Billings Rockefeller National Historical Park (NHP)" is a National Park Service (NPS) grant action issued by the U.S. Department of the Interior as a formal Notice of Intent to Award, not as a competitive funding opportunity. In other words, it is public notice that NPS planned to fund a specific set of project activities through an existing partnership arrangement, rather than inviting new applications from the general public. The notice makes clear that it is not a request for applications and that the award would be made without "full and open competition," meaning the work was intended to be carried out by a pre-identified partner under an already-established cooperative agreement.
The funding mechanism listed is a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates a project where the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement in the work, coordination, or oversight, rather than simply issuing a hands-off grant. The specific award action is identified as Task Agreement J181811D005 under an existing Cooperative Agreement (H1818090005) with the Woodstock Foundation, Inc. The Woodstock Foundation is therefore the intended recipient, and the notice serves primarily as a transparency step to document the planned sole-source or non-competitive arrangement.
The project purpose centers on preservation and maintenance within a historic zone at Marsh Billings Rockefeller NHP, with the activity category described as "Other" and further clarified to include landscape preservation, restoration, and rehabilitation. Practically, this points to work focused on caring for and sustaining the estate gardens and associated historic landscape features, consistent with the stewardship needs of a nationally significant historic site. Although the announcement does not list detailed tasks in the text provided, the stated scope signals ongoing maintenance and preservation-oriented work rather than new construction, and it aligns with protecting the historic character and integrity of designed landscapes.
Financially, the opportunity is narrowly defined: the estimated total funding is $44,400, and both the award ceiling and award floor are also $44,400, which indicates a single fixed award amount rather than a range. The announcement anticipates exactly one award. It also states that cost sharing or matching is required, meaning the recipient is expected to contribute non-federal resources (cash or allowable in-kind support) toward the project, consistent with many NPS partnership arrangements.
Administratively, the opportunity is labeled as discretionary, with the funding opportunity number "NPS 11 NERO 0033" and a posting date of April 12, 2011. The original and current closing date are both April 18, 2011, and the archive date is April 19, 2011, reflecting a short public notice window typical for a notice-of-intent posting rather than an open application period. The CFDA number is listed as 00.000 "Not Elsewhere Classified," which commonly appears in listings that are informational or do not align neatly with a standard CFDA program line.
Eligibility is shown as limited to nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), but in context this functions more as a formal classification than an invitation to apply, since the notice specifies the recipient and the non-competitive intent. Anyone seeking the full details was directed to the attachment in the full announcement on Grants.gov, and the point of contact listed for access issues is Jennifer Fleming, Contract/Agreements Specialist at the National Park Service (phone 215-597-6476).
