Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS), within the U.S. Department of the Interior, issued this notice to publicly announce its intent to make a specific award for work connected to Faneuil Hall in Boston, Massachusetts. The opportunity is titled "Preservation, Rehabilitation, Interpretation and Operation of Faneuil Hall, Boston" and is presented as a mandatory notice of intent to award rather than a competitive solicitation. In practical terms, that means the NPS was not asking for applications from the public or from other organizations; instead, it was informing stakeholders that it planned to enter into a cooperative agreement with a named partner for a defined scope of work.
This action was set up as a Cooperative Agreement (Funding Instrument Type: Cooperative Agreement), identified as Cooperative Agreement P12AC30254, with the intended cooperator being The City of Boston. The notice specifically states the agreement would be made "without full and open competition," which is a formal way of saying this was a non-competitive arrangement where the partner was selected in advance. The listing also confirms that the only eligible applicant category for this action is "City or township governments," reinforcing that the arrangement was designed for a municipal partner rather than nonprofits, universities, or private entities.
The project activities, as described in the category explanation, focus on historical preservation and public-facing stewardship of an important historic site: preserving and rehabilitating Faneuil Hall, supporting interpretation (such as exhibits, educational programming, or visitor information that explains the site's history and significance), and addressing ongoing operations associated with managing the historic facility. The funding activity is tied to cultural resources management under CFDA (Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance) number 15.946, which is associated with NPS cultural resource work, including protection and management of historic properties and related interpretive efforts.
Financially, the opportunity listed an estimated total funding amount of $25,000, with an award ceiling of $25,000 and an award floor of $14,500. The announcement also notes that cost sharing or matching is required, meaning the City of Boston would be expected to contribute resources of its own (cash and/or allowable in-kind contributions, depending on the agreement terms) rather than relying entirely on federal funds. The notice anticipated one award in total, consistent with the single named recipient and the non-competitive structure.
The timeline shown in the record reflects how quickly this type of notice can move when it is not a competition. The posting and creation date were both April 24, 2012, with an original and current closing date of April 29, 2012, and an archive date of April 30, 2012. In this context, the "closing date" functions less like a deadline for applications (since no applications were being accepted) and more like the end of the public notice window associated with the planned award.
For anyone who needed access to the complete attachment referenced in the announcement (the detailed document under "Full Announcement"), the listed point of contact was Dawn Mach, Contract Specialist, reachable by phone at 215-597-0056. Overall, this opportunity is best understood as a formal public posting documenting the NPS decision to partner with the City of Boston through a cooperative agreement to support preservation, rehabilitation, interpretation, and operational needs at Faneuil Hall as a historic and publicly significant site.
