Opportunity Summary:
The Taunton Wild and Scenic River Assistance opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS 15 NERO 0057) is a National Park Service (NPS) discretionary cooperative agreement announcement tied to CFDA 15.954, National Park Service Conservation, Protection, Outreach, and Education. It is important to understand that this notice is not a request for applications and not a competitive call for proposals. Instead, it serves as a public announcement that SRPEDD, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, has already received an award to continue its ongoing work supporting the Taunton Wild and Scenic River Assistance program.
The award is structured as a cooperative agreement, meaning NPS is expected to be actively involved alongside the recipient rather than simply providing funds with minimal engagement. The announcement lists one expected award with a total estimated funding amount of $27,000, and both the award floor and ceiling are also $27,000, indicating a single, fixed award amount rather than a range. No cost sharing or matching requirement is attached to this funding. While the eligibility field references 501(c)(3) nonprofits (other than institutions of higher education), the notice repeatedly clarifies that eligibility language is informational only in this case because the award has already been made to SRPEDD.
SRPEDD's responsibilities under this agreement focus on coordination, planning, public education, and financial stewardship in support of the Taunton River Stewardship Plan and the Taunton River Stewardship Council. First, SRPEDD must work cooperatively with NPS, the Taunton River Stewardship Council, and its member entities to develop specific workplans that implement the agreement and advance mutually agreed objectives from the Taunton River Stewardship Plan. Second, SRPEDD is tasked with working closely with NPS and the Stewardship Council to develop detailed plans to educate the public about the Taunton River, the Stewardship Plan itself, and the actions recommended in that plan. Third, SRPEDD will serve as the fiduciary agent for the Stewardship Council, managing and disbursing funds provided under or subsequent to the agreement, with a clear control requirement that no funds may be spent without approval from both the Stewardship Council and NPS. Finally, SRPEDD is expected to provide additional support as mutually agreed, with any expanded or adjusted responsibilities to be formalized through modifications to the agreement.
Key dates included in the posting show it was posted and created on June 8, 2015, with an original and current closing date of June 17, 2015, and an archive date of June 18, 2015. Because the posting is an announcement rather than an application solicitation, these dates function more as administrative posting and archival markers than as a typical application window. The listed agency is the National Park Service, and the contact provided for issues accessing the announcement is Keith Zotti, Partnership Program Specialist (phone 215-597-9153).
