Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "Public Transit Outreach and Education for Visitor Enjoyment and Access through Mono County" is a National Park Service (NPS) Notice of Intent to Award issued by the United States Department of the Interior. It is a discretionary funding action using a cooperative agreement, and it falls under an education-focused activity category tied to the NPS program identified by CFDA number 15.954 (National Park Service Conservation, Protection, Outreach, and Education). The key point is that this notice is not a request for applications. Instead, it serves as a public announcement that NPS intends to fund specific project activities through a non-competitive award.
The award is associated with Cooperative Agreement #P12AC30367 and names the County of Mono as the recipient. Because it is a notice of intent and not an open solicitation, the opportunity does not provide a competitive pathway for other applicants to apply; it is essentially a transparency measure that informs the public that the NPS plans to proceed with a particular partner without full and open competition. The eligible applicant type listed is county governments, which aligns with the identified recipient (Mono County), but the structure and timing confirm that it is not meant for broad applicant participation.
In terms of funding, the opportunity anticipates a single award (ExpectedAwards: 1) with a total estimated funding amount of $29,700. The award ceiling and award floor are both listed as $29,700, indicating a fixed award amount rather than a range. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning the recipient is not required to contribute matching funds as a condition of the award.
The posting and administrative timeline further reinforces that this is a notice rather than a competitive grant cycle. The opportunity 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. A one-day window between posting and closing is typical of notices intended to document an agency action rather than collect applications, since there is no practical period for proposal preparation or submission.
The project title suggests the funded work centers on outreach and education related to public transit in Mono County, with the stated purpose of supporting visitor enjoyment and access. While the notice does not provide a detailed scope of work, the framing indicates an effort to inform, guide, and encourage visitors in using public transportation options, likely in connection with access to federally managed public lands or nearby NPS units and visitor destinations. In cooperative agreements, unlike standard grants, the federal agency generally anticipates substantial involvement during the project, which can include coordination, shared planning, or technical input from NPS as the work is carried out.
For assistance with accessing the full announcement, the notice provides a point of contact: Lilette Baltodano, Financial Agreements Officer, reachable by phone at 415-623-2251.
