Opportunity Summary:
The Promote Cultural Tourism at Lowell Canal River Walkway opportunity is a National Park Service (NPS) discretionary funding action issued by the U.S. Department of the Interior. It is published as a formal Notice of Intent to Award, meaning it is not a competitive grant solicitation and it is not asking the public to submit applications. Instead, the NPS is providing public notice that it plans to enter into a specific cooperative agreement for defined project activities, without full and open competition.
The award is structured as a Cooperative Agreement, which typically indicates that the NPS expects to be substantially involved in the project rather than simply providing pass-through funding. The identified agreement is Cooperative Agreement P13AC01405, and the named cooperator is The Cultural Organization of Lowell, Inc. The funding activity category is listed under Education, and the opportunity anticipates a single award.
The financial scope is fixed: the estimated total funding is $114,500, and both the award ceiling and award floor are also $114,500, signaling that the planned agreement amount is set rather than a range. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement attached to this funding. Eligible applicants are described as nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), but because this is a notice of intent to award to a specific organization, eligibility language functions more as standard classification than an invitation for new applicants to compete.
Key administrative dates show how narrow the notice window is: it was posted and created on September 12, 2013, with an original and current closing date of September 16, 2013, and it was archived on September 17, 2013. The opportunity is identified by Funding Opportunity Number NPS 13 NERO 0147, with CFDA number 15.956 (as listed in the posting). The announcement notes that full project details are contained in an attachment under the Full Announcement section, and it provides a point of contact for access issues: Dawn Mach, Contract Specialist, at 215-597-0056.
