Opportunity Summary:
The "Taunton Wild and Scenic River Assistance" opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number: NPS 11 NERO 0113) is a National Park Service notice stating the agency's intent to make a continuation award under an existing cooperative agreement, rather than opening a competitive application process. The announcement is explicitly labeled as a NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD and also states, in plain terms, that it is not a request for applications. In practice, this means the National Park Service is using the posting mainly to satisfy public notice requirements and to document that it plans to fund a specific partner for ongoing work, without conducting full and open competition.
The funding mechanism is a Cooperative Agreement, and the opportunity category is listed as Continuation, indicating it is meant to keep an already-approved project moving forward instead of launching a new standalone grant competition. The work falls under the broad activity category of Environment, and it is tied to a modification that continues projects under Task Agreement J4531100531 associated with Cooperative Agreement H4507070043. The named cooperator is the Southeast Region Economic Development District, which signals that the money is intended to support that organization as the continuing partner carrying out the project activities connected to Taunton Wild and Scenic River assistance.
In terms of funding details, the National Park Service anticipated one award total. The estimated total funding is $29,500, and both the award ceiling and award floor are also $29,500, which strongly indicates a single fixed amount planned for the continuation award rather than a range of possible award sizes. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement listed, so the recipient is not expected to provide a required non-federal match as a condition of receiving these funds.
Eligibility is shown as limited to nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), but because this is not an open competition and is tied to continuation work under an existing agreement, the practical effect is that the posting is not inviting new entrants to apply. The dates reinforce that point as well: it was posted on September 13, 2011, with a very short window until the closing date of September 17, 2011, and it was archived on September 19, 2011. Short posting windows are common for intent-to-award notices where the agency is not seeking proposals but must still post the action publicly.
Anyone needing the full announcement materials is directed to contact Dawn Mach, Contract Specialist, by phone at 215-597-0056, particularly if they have trouble accessing the attached documentation referenced in the listing. The announcement notes that complete details are in the attachment under the Full Announcement section, which would typically include the specific scope of work being continued, reporting expectations, and the administrative terms for the modification.
