Opportunity Summary:

The River Mile Support 2016-2017 at Lake Roosevelt (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIP16AC00575) is a National Park Service notice tied to environmental work at Lake Roosevelt, issued by the U.S. Department of the Interior (DOI-NPS). Despite being listed in the grants system with standard fields like eligibility, ceiling amount, and due date, the key point in the description is that this is not an open funding opportunity announcement. Instead, it is a formal notice of intent to make an award to a single, pre-identified source under Department of the Interior policy (505 DM 2). In practice, that means the agency is signaling that it plans to proceed with a noncompetitive award rather than solicit and evaluate proposals from multiple applicants.

The planned award mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates that the National Park Service expects to have substantial involvement in the work beyond simply providing funds. The activity category is Environment, and the listing is associated with CFDA number 15.931, which corresponds to National Park Service assistance programs. The opportunity anticipates one award (ExpectedAwards: 1) with an award ceiling of $94,800, covering the 2016-2017 period referenced in the title. The opportunity was created and posted on April 28, 2016, with an original and current closing date of May 8, 2016, reflecting the administrative window for the notice rather than a typical competitive application period.

Eligibility is shown as limited to nonprofit organizations with IRS-recognized 501(c)(3) status, excluding institutions of higher education. However, because the notice is explicitly a single-source intent to award, the eligibility field should be read as descriptive of the intended recipient type rather than an invitation for all eligible nonprofits to apply. Anyone seeking the specifics of the project scope, the rationale for single-source selection, expected deliverables, or partner responsibilities would need to consult the referenced supporting document, the Notice of Intent, since the brief description in the listing directs readers there for the substantive details.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs): River Mile Support 2016-2017 at Lake Roosevelt (NPS NOIP16AC00575)

What is the River Mile Support 2016-2017 at Lake Roosevelt opportunity?

River Mile Support 2016-2017 at Lake Roosevelt is a National Park Service (NPS) funding notice related to environmental work at Lake Roosevelt. It is listed under Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIP16AC00575 and is issued by the U.S. Department of the Interior (DOI-NPS).

Is this an open grant competition where multiple organizations can apply?

No. The description makes clear this is not an open funding opportunity announcement. It is a formal Notice of Intent to make an award to a single, pre-identified source under Department of the Interior policy (505 DM 2). In other words, NPS is signaling plans for a noncompetitive award rather than requesting proposals from multiple applicants.

What does it mean that this is a "Notice of Intent" to make an award?

A Notice of Intent in this context indicates the agency plans to proceed with an award to one specific, pre-identified recipient. The listing may look like a standard grant posting (with fields such as eligibility, award ceiling, and due date), but the purpose is primarily to document the intended single-source award rather than to invite new applications.

What type of award is planned?

The planned award mechanism is a cooperative agreement.

What is a cooperative agreement, and why does it matter here?

A cooperative agreement generally indicates the National Park Service expects to have substantial involvement in the funded work beyond simply providing funds. This is different from situations where an agency primarily provides funding with less direct participation.

What is the activity category for this opportunity?

The activity category is Environment.

Which agency is offering or administering this opportunity?

The opportunity is tied to the National Park Service (NPS), within the U.S. Department of the Interior (DOI-NPS).

How many awards are expected?

What is the maximum funding amount (award ceiling)?

The award ceiling is listed as $94,800.

What time period does the funding cover?

The title references the 2016-2017 period, and the listed ceiling amount is associated with that period as reflected in the opportunity title.

When was the opportunity posted?

The opportunity was created and posted on April 28, 2016.

What is the closing date, and does it function like a normal application deadline?

The original and current closing date is May 8, 2016. The closing date reflects the administrative window for the notice rather than a typical competitive application period, since this is a single-source intent to award and not an open solicitation.

Who is listed as eligible to receive this award?

Eligibility is shown as limited to nonprofit organizations with IRS-recognized 501(c)(3) status, excluding institutions of higher education.

If my nonprofit is a 501(c)(3), can I apply for this funding?

The notice is explicitly a single-source intent to award to a pre-identified recipient. As described, the eligibility field should be read as describing the intended recipient type rather than inviting all eligible nonprofits to apply.

Are institutions of higher education eligible?

No. The eligibility field explicitly excludes institutions of higher education.

Why does the listing include standard grant fields if it is not open for applications?

The notice appears in the grants system with standard fields (such as eligibility, ceiling amount, and due date), but the key point in the description is that it is not an open funding opportunity announcement. The fields are part of the standard posting format, while the description clarifies the noncompetitive, single-source intent.

Where can I find the project scope, expected deliverables, or details about partner responsibilities?

The brief listing directs readers to consult the referenced supporting document, the Notice of Intent, for substantive details. The listing itself indicates that project scope, rationale for the single-source selection, expected deliverables, and partner responsibilities would be found there.

Where can I find the rationale for selecting a single, pre-identified recipient?

The description indicates the rationale for single-source selection would need to be reviewed in the supporting document (the Notice of Intent), since the listing itself does not provide those details.

What policy is cited as the basis for the single-source approach?

The notice references Department of the Interior policy 505 DM 2 as the basis for the intent to make an award to a single, pre-identified source.
