Opportunity Summary:
This notice describes a National Park Service (NPS) discretionary funding action titled "Science and Resilience Institute at Jamaica Bay Coordination of DOI and NPS Hurricane Sandy Resilience Projects" (Funding Opportunity Number: NPS 14 NERO 0133). It is explicitly labeled as a Notice of Intent to Award, meaning it is not a solicitation and not a request for applications. Instead, it serves as a public announcement that the NPS intends to fund a specific set of project activities without full and open competition, typically indicating a planned, directed award to a particular partner or entity rather than an open competition where multiple applicants can apply.
The planned award will be issued as a cooperative agreement, which generally implies substantial involvement by the federal agency in carrying out the work (for example, coordination, technical input, or joint project management), rather than a more hands-off grant structure. The funding activity category is listed as "Other," clarified as Hurricane Sandy, indicating the work is tied to Hurricane Sandy resilience and recovery efforts. The project focus, as stated in the title, is coordination work connected to the Science and Resilience Institute at Jamaica Bay, specifically aimed at aligning or managing Department of the Interior (DOI) and NPS Hurricane Sandy resilience projects in and around Jamaica Bay.
Financially, the announcement indicates a single expected award with total estimated funding of $85,000. The award ceiling and floor are both $85,000, which signals the NPS anticipated a fixed award amount rather than a range. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient would not be required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of the award. The associated CFDA program number is 15.945, Cooperative Research and Training Programs - Resources of the National Park System, which aligns with research, coordination, and training-oriented activities that support NPS resource management and related priorities.
In terms of timing and administrative details, the opportunity was posted and created on August 26, 2014, with an original and current closing date of August 31, 2014, and an archive date of September 1, 2014. Because this is a notice rather than a competitive application window, these dates function more as the public posting period for the intent to make the award than as a deadline for prospective applicants to submit proposals.
Eligibility is listed broadly as "Others," but the accompanying eligibility information repeats the central point that this is not an open competition and is only a public notice of an intended noncompetitive award. In practice, that means the announcement does not provide a pathway for new applicants to seek the funds through this posting. The awarding agency is the National Park Service.
For additional help obtaining the full announcement or resolving access issues, the contact listed is Patrick Reidy, Grants Management Specialist, reachable by phone at 215-597-5949, with an NPS email contact referenced in the notice (though not fully provided in the text shared).
