Opportunity Summary:
This notice describes a National Park Service (NPS) Notice of Intent to Award for a specific, pre-identified project called "Public Transit Outreach and Education for Visitor Enjoyment and Access through Madera County." It is not a solicitation and it is not asking the public to submit applications. Instead, it serves as a public announcement that the NPS plans to fund certain project activities through a non-competitive award mechanism, meaning the agency intends to proceed without full and open competition for this particular effort.
The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates that NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the project compared to a standard grant. The named agreement is Cooperative Agreement Number P12AC30510, and the intended recipient is the Yosemite Sierra Visitors Bureau. The purpose, as conveyed by the title and activity classification, is centered on education and outreach related to public transit, with the practical goal of improving visitor enjoyment and access in and through Madera County, an area closely tied to travel patterns for visitors to Yosemite and surrounding destinations. In general terms, projects like this focus on informing visitors about transit options, encouraging transit use, improving awareness of routes and schedules, and helping reduce congestion and related impacts by shifting some visitor travel from private vehicles to shared transportation.
Administratively, the opportunity is categorized as discretionary funding and is associated with CFDA number 15.954 (National Park Service Conservation, Protection, Outreach, and Education). The notice states there is one expected award, and the total estimated funding is $19,600. The award ceiling and floor are both listed as $19,600, which effectively signals a single fixed award amount rather than a competitive range. No cost sharing or matching funds are required.
The timeline listed in the announcement reflects the procedural nature of an intent-to-award notice rather than a real application window. It was posted and created on June 22, 2012, with an original and current closing date of June 23, 2012, and an archive date of July 23, 2012. Because this is not a request for applications, those dates mainly relate to how long the notice is displayed rather than deadlines for applicant submissions. While the eligible applicant category is described as nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), the notice makes clear the NPS already intends to make the award to the Yosemite Sierra Visitors Bureau for the stated project.
For questions or for help accessing the full announcement electronically, the listed contact is Lilette Baltodano, Financial Agreements Officer, reachable by phone at 415-623-2251.
