Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS) posted a discretionary grant opportunity titled "Repair Boundrary Fence" (Funding Opportunity Number NPSNOIPEFO117003) to support natural resource protection work at Petrified Forest National Park. The project scope is straightforward: repair sections of the park boundary fence. Boundary fence repairs are typically tied to protecting park resources and managing access along park borders, helping reduce trespass, limit impacts from unauthorized vehicle entry, and support overall resource stewardship.
The funding instrument is a Cooperative Agreement, which generally indicates a partnership-style award where the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement in the project (for example, coordinating work plans, providing technical direction, or integrating the work with park operations). The activity category is listed as Natural Resources, and the associated CFDA program is 15.931, "Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations," signaling that the work is intended to be carried out through a youth conservation corps type partner.
This announcement is not a typical open competition. The eligibility statement clarifies it is a notice of intent to award a task agreement to the Coconino Rural Environment Corps (CREC), which participates in the Mountain Alliance of Conservation Corps, under an existing cooperative agreement. In practical terms, that means the NPS had already identified the recipient organization and planned to complete the award using internal NPS procedures, rather than accepting proposals from a broad pool of applicants.
The opportunity anticipated a single award (Expected Awards: 1) with an estimated total funding amount of $60,006. The listing shows award ceiling and floor as $0, which usually means specific minimums and maximums were not set in the public posting even though an estimated total project amount was provided. Cost sharing or matching is required, so the recipient would be expected to contribute non-federal resources (cash, in-kind labor, equipment use, or other allowable contributions) in accordance with the cooperative agreement terms and applicable federal cost principles.
Key dates show the posting date as December 17, 2010, with an original and current closing date of December 20, 2010, reflecting a very short window that aligns with a notice-of-intent or directed award rather than a competitive solicitation. The archive date is January 19, 2011, meaning it is no longer active.
