Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "Thomas Cole Historic House Thomas Cole National Historic Site in Catskill, NY" (Funding Opportunity Number: NPS 11 NERO 0058), is a National Park Service notice of intent to award rather than a competitive funding solicitation. In practical terms, it is a public transparency announcement stating that the U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service (NPS), planned to provide funding for specific project activities without full and open competition. The award was to be made through a task agreement issued under an existing cooperative agreement (H1788100001) with the Thomas Cole Historic House, meaning the recipient organization and the partnership framework were already established before this notice was posted.
The funding instrument identified is a Cooperative Agreement, which typically indicates that NPS expected to have substantial involvement in the supported work compared to a standard grant. The activity focus is listed under "Other," clarified as conservation and preservation work related to the Thomas Cole National Historic Site. While the notice does not spell out the exact scope in the text provided, the category and explanation point to preservation-oriented activities that support safeguarding, maintaining, or conserving historic resources associated with the site and its mission.
Financially, the announcement describes a single expected award with an estimated total funding amount of $150,000. The award ceiling and award floor are both $150,000, which signals that the planned award amount was fixed rather than a range. The listing also indicates a cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning the recipient was expected to contribute non-federal funds and/or in-kind support toward the project, consistent with many preservation and partnership-based NPS agreements.
Eligibility is described as limited to nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education). However, because this was not a request for applications and the award was being made under an existing cooperative agreement, the eligibility field functions more as a classification of the partner type than an open invitation for other organizations to apply. The notice was posted on July 6, 2011, with an original and current closing date of July 12, 2011, and an archive date of July 13, 2011. Those dates reflect the short administrative window typical of notices that are intended to inform the public of a planned noncompetitive award rather than to collect proposals.
For anyone needing the full details, the announcement directs readers to an attachment accessible via the "Full Announcement" link in the original posting. It also provides a point of contact for access issues: Jennifer Fleming, Contract/Agreements Specialist at the National Park Service, phone 215-597-6476.
