Opportunity Summary:
The Storer College Oral History opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOI NCRO R3850120098) is a National Park Service (NPS) discretionary funding action being issued as a cooperative agreement focused on cultural resources work. The stated purpose is to support an oral history effort connected to Storer College, with funding administered through a task agreement under an existing NPS Cooperative Agreement (No. H3130090029). In practical terms, this is not an open competition for new proposals but a formal notice that NPS intends to fund a specific project through an established cooperative framework.
This announcement is explicitly a notice of intent for a noncompetitive, single-source award, citing Department of the Interior Departmental Manual 2.12C as the authority for awarding without competition. It is also clear about eligibility: it is not a request for applications and is intended for only one recipient, Frederick Community College, specifically the Catoctin Center for Regional Studies. Because of that structure, other organizations are not being invited to apply and there is no general applicant pool for this funding opportunity.
The expected number of awards is one, and the estimated total funding amount is $58,000. The listing shows no cost sharing or matching requirement. The award ceiling and floor are both listed as $0, which commonly appears in notices like this when the agency is not using the ceiling/floor fields in the standard way, but the estimated total funding figure indicates the anticipated project amount. The assistance listing is associated with CFDA 15.945, Cooperative Research and Training Programs - Resources of the National Park System, aligning the project with NPS research, documentation, and preservation-related activities.
Key dates indicate the opportunity was posted and created on July 25, 2012, with an original and current closing date of August 1, 2012, and an archive date of August 31, 2012. Given that it is a noncompetitive single-source notice rather than an open solicitation, these dates function more as the public notice window than as a typical application deadline.
For additional details or if there are access issues with the full announcement, the listed point of contact is Rita Mihalik, Contract Specialist, reachable by phone at 301-432-7890 or by email at ritamihalik@nps.gov.
