Opportunity Summary:

The South Park National Heritage Area opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIP13AC01105) is a National Park Service notice describing the agency's intent to issue a single, noncompetitive task agreement under an already existing Master Agreement. In practical terms, this is not an open grant competition and it is not seeking new applications from the public. Instead, it serves as a formal public notice that the National Park Service plans to move forward with one specific award to a pre-identified recipient, consistent with the Department of the Interior's internal policy requirements referenced as 505 Department Manual 2.12C, which covers circumstances where a noncompetitive, single-source award is allowable.

The opportunity is categorized as discretionary funding and uses a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument, meaning the National Park Service expects to remain substantially involved in the supported work rather than simply issuing funds and stepping back. The activity category is listed as Natural Resources, and the title indicates the work is associated with the South Park National Heritage Area, which typically involves heritage conservation, interpretation, planning, coordination, and related resource-focused initiatives tied to a designated heritage landscape.

Only one award is anticipated, with an estimated total funding amount of $150,000. The listing shows no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not expected to provide a required match as a condition of the award. The award ceiling and floor are both listed as $0, which usually reflects that the formal funding range is not being competed or advertised through this notice because the award is being executed through an existing agreement mechanism rather than through a standard competitive solicitation.

Although the eligible applicant field mentions independent school districts, the eligibility note clarifies the real intent: the announcement is explicitly a notice of intent to award a single-source task agreement under an existing agreement to Park County. That means the practical eligible recipient for this action is Park County, and other entities should not interpret this posting as an opportunity to submit proposals or request funding for separate projects.

Key dates reflect the limited administrative window typical of noncompetitive intent notices. The opportunity was posted and created on August 8, 2013, with an original and current closing date of August 12, 2013, and it was archived on September 11, 2013. Those dates reinforce that this posting functioned mainly as a compliance step to document the agency's planned award rather than a period for collecting and evaluating competing applications.

For questions or access issues related to the full announcement, the contact listed is Kelvin Delaney, Contracting Officer, reachable by phone at 303-969-2796.
