Opportunity Summary:
This notice describes a National Park Service (NPS) intent to award a single cooperative agreement for a project focused on Shenandoah National Park and the ways climate change-related factors may be affecting the park's natural resources. The funding opportunity is titled "Shenandoah National Park assessing climate change factors that impact natural resources in the park" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS 10 NERO 0020) and falls under the environment activity category. The announcement is explicitly labeled as a "NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD" and states in plain terms that it is not a request for applications, meaning the NPS was not seeking proposals from the public or running a competitive application process for this particular award.
The NPS indicates it planned to make the award without full and open competition through Cooperative Agreement H484010004. The intended cooperator is the Rector and Visitors of the University of Virginia, which is the legal entity name for the University of Virginia. In practice, this kind of notice is used to publicly document that the agency expects to fund a specific partner for a defined scope of work, typically because the partner has a unique capability, an existing relationship, specialized expertise, continuity with prior work, or another justification that supports a non-competitive approach.
Financially, the opportunity lists an estimated total funding amount of $96,350. The award ceiling and award floor are both $96,350, which signals the award amount was fixed for this action rather than a range. The announcement anticipates exactly one award and states there is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient was not expected to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of the agreement.
The timing information shows the notice was posted and created on June 30, 2010, with an original and current closing date of July 5, 2010, and an archive date of July 6, 2010. Even though a "closing date" is listed, in this case it functions more like an administrative window for the posting rather than a deadline for submitting applications, since the agency is not soliciting proposals.
The eligible applicant field in the record lists "Nonprofits having a 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, other than institutions of higher education." That said, the description of the notice makes clear that the intended recipient is the University of Virginia via the named cooperative agreement, so the eligibility line is not meaningful here as an open competition standard. The key point is that this is a directed, non-competitive cooperative agreement action rather than a general grant opportunity.
For anyone needing the full details, the notice references an attachment available under the "Full Announcement" section of the posting. The contact provided for assistance accessing the announcement is Jennifer Fleming, Contract/Agreements Specialist, at 215-597-6476.
