Opportunity Summary:
The Sudbury, Assabet and Concord River Assistance opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS 13 NERO 0124) is a National Park Service (NPS) notice stating the agencys intent to make a continuation award under its Rivers, Trails and Conservation Assistance program (CFDA 15.921). The key point is that it is not a request for applications. Instead, it serves as a public notification that NPS plans to fund specific project activities without full and open competition, by modifying and continuing work already underway through an existing cooperative agreement.
This announcement is tied directly to Cooperative Agreement P12AC30966, with the named cooperator Sudbury Valley Trustees. In practical terms, the funding is meant to extend or continue previously approved efforts related to assistance for the Sudbury, Assabet, and Concord Rivers, rather than launching a new competitive grant round. The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates an arrangement where the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement in the project activities compared with a standard grant.
The opportunity is categorized as continuation funding in the Environment and Natural Resources activity area. NPS anticipated making a single award (Expected Awards: 1). The total estimated funding amount is $61,000, and both the award floor and award ceiling are also listed as $61,000, meaning the award amount was effectively predetermined for this continuation action. A cost sharing or matching requirement is indicated as yes, so the continuation work was expected to include some form of non-federal share consistent with the terms of the existing agreement.
Eligibility in the listing is described as nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education), which aligns with the cooperator named in the notice. However, because this is a notice of intent to award and not an open solicitation, the eligibility statement does not function as an invitation for other organizations to apply. The posting date and creation date are both August 21, 2013, with an original and current closing date of August 25, 2013, and an archive date of August 26, 2013, reflecting that the posting was time-limited and informational rather than a typical application window.
For anyone needing access to the full announcement materials, the notice provides a point of contact: Dawn Mach, Contract Specialist, reachable by phone at 215-597-0056, referenced alongside the Sudbury, Assabet and Concord Rivers.
