Opportunity Summary:
The Taunton Wild and Scenic River Assistance opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS 10 NERO 0051) is a National Park Service notice intended to inform the public that NPS planned to award funding for river-related assistance work through a cooperative agreement. It falls under the Rivers, Trails and Conservation Assistance program (CFDA 15.921) and is categorized as an environmental funding activity. The key point is that it was issued as a "Notice of Intent to Award," meaning it was not a competitive grant solicitation and not a request for applications. In practical terms, outside organizations were not being invited to apply; instead, NPS was announcing its intent to move forward with a specific funding action.
The award was structured as a Cooperative Agreement rather than a standard grant, which generally signals that NPS expected to have substantial involvement in the supported work, such as collaborating on planning, technical assistance, coordination, or oversight. The notice states that the funding would be issued without full and open competition as a modification (listed as modification 0001) to an existing cooperative agreement, identified as H4507070043, with the Southeast Region Planning Economic Development District. Although the eligibility field lists 501(c)(3) nonprofits (excluding institutions of higher education), the document itself makes clear that this posting was about continuing or amending an existing agreement with a named cooperator, not selecting from new applicants.
Financially, the posting indicates a single expected award, with total estimated funding of $30,000. The award floor and ceiling are both $30,000, which implies a fixed amount for the planned work. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement. The opportunity was posted on September 15, 2010, and carried a closing date of September 21, 2010, with an archive date of September 22, 2010, reflecting that the notice period was brief and primarily informational rather than an application window.
For anyone trying to understand what actions were contemplated, the notice directs readers to consult the attachment linked under the full announcement on Grants.gov for the complete details of the intended project activities. For access issues or administrative questions about the posting, the contact listed is Jennifer Fleming, Contract/Agreements Specialist at the National Park Service, reachable by phone at 215-597-6476.
