Opportunity Summary:
The funding opportunity titled "Restore Interior and Upgrade of Historic Bourne Building" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOI NEBE R2011100178) is a National Park Service (Department of the Interior) announcement for a single-source cooperative agreement supporting construction-related rehabilitation work at the historic Bourne Building. It is structured as an earmark opportunity and was intended for one award, with an anticipated maximum federal amount listed as an award ceiling of $1,500,000 (with no stated award floor). The opportunity was posted on March 5, 2010, and had a very short application window, closing on March 8, 2010, with the archive date noted as April 7, 2010.
The project is specifically directed to the Old Dartmouth Historical Society, also known as the New Bedford Whaling Museum, which is the only eligible applicant identified in the notice. The core purpose is to restore and modernize critical interior building systems and conditions in a historic structure, focusing on major rehabilitation needs. The scope of work includes repairing leaking ceilings and addressing building infrastructure deficiencies, particularly upgrades to inadequate heating and cooling systems as well as improvements to fire suppression systems. In practical terms, the grant is aimed at preserving the building while bringing essential mechanical and life-safety systems up to an acceptable standard, which is common in historic preservation projects where aging infrastructure can threaten both collections and public access.
The notice also indicates that cost sharing or matching is required, meaning the recipient is expected to contribute non-federal funds or resources toward the project in addition to the federal award. While the opportunity lists a CFDA number as 00.000 (Not Elsewhere Classified), the activity category is clearly described as "Construction," reflecting that the funds are intended for physical rehabilitation and system upgrades rather than programming or research.
For access issues or administrative questions, the listed point of contact is Contracting Officer Joelle Mascarenas at 303-969-2677.
