Opportunity Summary:

The National Park Service (NPS), part of the U.S. Department of the Interior, issued a Notice of Intent to Award for a project titled "Preservation of the Paul Revere House Mitigation of Storm and Improved Accessibility." The key point of this announcement is that it is not a request for applications and not an open competition. Instead, it serves as a public notice that NPS intended to fund a specific set of project activities through a cooperative agreement with a named partner, the Paul Revere Memorial Association, without full and open competition.

This opportunity appears in the federal grants system under Funding Opportunity Number NPS 11 NERO 0109 and is categorized as a mandatory opportunity using a Cooperative Agreement as the funding instrument. The activity category is listed as Environment, which fits with the preservation and mitigation focus implied by the title. The listing projected a single award (Expected Awards: 1), reinforcing that the funding was intended for one identified recipient rather than multiple grantees.

The total funding amount was set at $542,877, with the award floor and award ceiling both listed as $542,877. In practical terms, that means the award amount was fixed, not a range. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient was not expected to provide a required non-federal match as a condition of receiving the federal funds.

Eligibility in the posting is described generally as nonprofits with IRS 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education). However, because this notice is explicitly an intent to award without open competition, the eligibility language does not function the way it would in a typical competitive grant. The intended cooperator is identified directly as The Paul Revere Memorial Association under Cooperative Agreement P11AC40814, which is the agreement vehicle NPS planned to use to support the work.

Based on the title, the project scope centers on preservation of the Paul Revere House with an emphasis on mitigating storm impacts and improving accessibility. While the short text provided does not list detailed tasks, those phrases typically imply work such as protecting the historic structure from water intrusion or storm-related damage, strengthening or upgrading site elements vulnerable to severe weather, and making improvements that enhance public access in a way that is compatible with historic preservation requirements. The announcement notes that complete details were provided in an attachment available under the full announcement, indicating that the specific work plan, deliverables, and any technical preservation standards were likely documented there.

In terms of timing, the opportunity was posted on September 8, 2011, with an original and current closing date of September 13, 2011, and it was archived on September 14, 2011. Those very short dates are consistent with a notice posting meant to document an intended sole-source or non-competitive award rather than to solicit and evaluate proposals over an extended period.

For assistance accessing the full announcement materials, the point of contact listed was Peggy Wall, Administrative Officer, reachable by phone at 410-260-2473. The posting also references the Paul Revere House in the contact section, aligning the project with the well-known historic site managed by the Paul Revere Memorial Association in cooperation with relevant public partners.
