Opportunity Summary:
The Trinity River Camp Hazard Fuels Reduction Project at Whiskeytown National Recreation Area is a National Park Service (NPS) funding notice published as a Notice of Intent to Award under funding opportunity number P14AS00331. The key point is that this is not an open grant solicitation and not a Request for Applications. Instead, it is a public notice that NPS plans to provide funding for specific hazard fuels reduction work through a cooperative agreement without full and open competition, meaning the agency is not seeking proposals from other applicants for this particular effort.
The project is structured as a Task Agreement issued under an existing umbrella Cooperative Agreement. That umbrella agreement was already established with the intended partner so that discrete projects can be carried out through individual task agreements as needs arise. For this specific task, the proposed cooperator is CAL FIRE, indicating the work will be completed in cooperation with the State of California's fire agency. The notice references an attached Notice of Intent and Single Source Justification, which would contain the formal rationale for using a single-source (non-competitive) approach and additional details about the planned activities and why CAL FIRE is the selected partner.
Financially, the NPS indicates the total anticipated award amount under this task agreement will not exceed 25,000 dollars. The estimated total funding and the award ceiling are both listed at 25,000 dollars, with an award floor of 0 dollars. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so CAL FIRE would not be expected to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of the award. The opportunity is categorized as discretionary, uses a cooperative agreement funding instrument (which typically implies substantial involvement by the federal agency during performance), and falls under the funding activity category of Disaster Prevention and Relief. The CFDA listing included is 15.949, associated with the National Fire Plan and Rural Fire Assistance, which aligns the work with broader federal priorities focused on reducing wildfire risk and improving fire management capacity.
From an administrative standpoint, the posting date and creation date are September 2, 2014, with an original and current closing date of September 5, 2014, and an archive date of September 12, 2014. In notices like this, the closing date is not a deadline to apply (since applications are not being accepted); it functions more as a public notice window indicating when the intent-to-award announcement is posted and when it is expected to be finalized or archived.
Eligibility is listed as state governments, which is consistent with CAL FIRE being a state agency. The awarding agency is the National Park Service. Anyone who has trouble accessing the full announcement electronically is directed to contact Yvonne Morales at 415-464-5221 or by email at yvonnemorales@nps.gov for assistance or further information about the notice and associated documentation.
