Opportunity Summary:
The South Park National Heritage Area (SPNHA) opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIP11AT00486) is a National Park Service (NPS) federal financial assistance action issued as a continuation award rather than an open competition. It was published as a notice of intent to make a noncompetitive award under an existing NPS master cooperative agreement, with the funding to be executed through a task agreement. The announcement cites Department of the Interior policy authority (505 Departmental Manual 2.12C) as the basis for proceeding without competition, which typically applies when specific circumstances justify a directed or continuation award.
This opportunity falls under the Cooperative Agreement funding instrument, which generally indicates a relationship where the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement in the supported activities, as opposed to a standard grant that is usually more hands-off once awarded. The activity category is listed as Education, and the CFDA (Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance) number is 15.939, identified as National Heritage Area Federal Financial Assistance. The posting date and creation date are both May 24, 2011, with an original and current closing date of May 29, 2011, and an archive date of June 28, 2011. Only one award was expected.
The total estimated funding amount shown is $63,705. The listing does not specify an award ceiling or floor (both shown as 0), which often appears in continuation or internally directed actions where the amount is set by program needs and the existing agreement rather than a competitive range. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning the recipient was not required, under this notice, to provide a formal non-federal match as a condition of receiving the federal funds.
Eligibility is effectively limited because the notice states it is not a request for applications. While the general eligibility field references "Others" and points to additional eligibility information for clarification, the core eligibility statement makes clear that this announcement is a continuation to the South Park National Heritage Area. In practical terms, that means the intended recipient is already identified (typically the managing entity or partner organization for the heritage area under the master cooperative agreement), and outside organizations are not being invited to apply.
For additional details, the announcement directs readers to the attached full announcement and provides a contact for access issues: William Tallbull, Grant/Agreement Specialist, at (303) 969-2891.
