Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS) announced a notice of intent to make a noncompetitive cooperative agreement award for a project titled "Renovation of Coupeville Wharf Kiosk and Creation of Trails Plan." This opportunity is tied to Ebey's Landing National Historic Reserve and is being issued under Department of the Interior noncompetitive award policy (Departmental Manual 505 DM 2). In practical terms, it signals that NPS plans to fund a specific partner for a defined set of work rather than running an open competition. The purpose is to use NPS dollars to supplement funding coming from other sources so the partner can carry out projects that directly benefit the Reserve.
The work described by the title focuses on two connected deliverables: improving the Coupeville Wharf kiosk through renovation and developing a trails plan. The kiosk renovation implies upgrades to an existing visitor-facing facility, typically aimed at improving the quality, safety, accessibility, interpretive value, or overall functionality of information services for the public at the wharf area. The trails plan component points to a planning effort for trail-related improvements, which can include assessing existing routes, identifying gaps, establishing priorities for maintenance or new connections, addressing resource protection concerns, and laying out a strategy that supports outdoor recreation while protecting natural and historic resources. The funding activity category is Natural Resources, and the CFDA listing provided is 15.916 (Outdoor Recreation - Acquisition, Development and Planning), which aligns with planning and development work connected to recreation and public use.
The expected number of awards is one, reinforcing that this is intended for a single recipient rather than a broad applicant pool. The eligible applicant category is listed as "Others," with the clarification that eligibility information is contained in the related notice of intent, which identifies the intended recipient as the Trust Board of Ebey's Landing National Historic Reserve (a unit of local government). Because it is a cooperative agreement, the structure typically indicates substantial involvement from the federal agency during the project, such as coordination, technical input, review of deliverables, or collaborative decision-making, rather than a hands-off grant arrangement.
Financially, the announcement lists an estimated total funding amount of $35,000, with an award ceiling of $100,000, and it includes a cost sharing or matching requirement. That means the recipient is expected to contribute matching funds or in-kind support, and NPS funds are specifically described as augmenting other sources rather than fully covering the project costs. The posting and creation date were August 2, 2010, with an original and current closing date of August 16, 2010, and the opportunity archived on September 15, 2010, indicating the action window was short and consistent with a notice of intent for a directed, noncompetitive award rather than a typical competitive solicitation.
