Opportunity Summary:
This notice describes a National Park Service (NPS) funding action titled "Preservation, Restoration, and Rehabilitation of Historic Landscape at Marsh Billings Rockefeller NHP" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS 15 NERO 0026). It is a discretionary funding announcement for a cooperative agreement under CFDA 15.954 (National Park Service Conservation, Protection, Outreach, and Education). The key point is that it is a Notice of Intent to Award, meaning it is not a call for proposals and not a request for applications. Instead, it serves as public notification that NPS plans to fund specific project activities without full and open competition.
The opportunity relates to preservation-oriented work on a historic landscape at Marsh-Billings-Rockefeller National Historical Park. While the notice does not provide technical scopes, timelines, or detailed work elements beyond the project title, the framing indicates that the funded activities will support historic landscape preservation, restoration, and rehabilitation efforts consistent with NPS conservation and stewardship responsibilities.
Funding is structured as a single expected award, with total estimated funding of $91,668. The award ceiling and floor are both listed as $91,668, which typically indicates NPS already anticipates a fixed award amount for the intended recipient under this cooperative agreement. A cost sharing or matching requirement applies, meaning the recipient is expected to contribute non-federal resources (cash and/or allowable in-kind support) toward the project, though the notice does not specify the percentage or method of calculating the match.
The notice was posted and created on April 8, 2015, with an original and current closing date of April 17, 2015, and an archive date of April 18, 2015. Because this is not an open competition, the "closing date" functions more like an administrative window for public notice rather than a deadline for applicants to submit proposals.
Eligibility is listed broadly as "Others," but the eligibility section repeats that this is not an application-based opportunity and is intended solely to announce NPSs intent to make an award non-competitively. For questions or for help accessing the full announcement, the listed contact is Patrick Reidy, Grants Management Specialist, at 215-597-5949, with an NPS email referenced in the posting.
