Opportunity Summary:
This opportunity, titled "U of Mass, Tsongas Industrial History Center, Educational Program" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS 12 NERO 0007), is a National Park Service (NPS) Notice of Intent to Award issued by the U.S. Department of the Interior. The key point is that it is not an open grant competition and not a request for applications. Instead, it serves as a formal public notice that the NPS intends to enter into a specific cooperative agreement without full and open competition for a defined set of education-related project activities.
The planned award mechanism is a Cooperative Agreement, identified as Cooperative Agreement P12AC10058, and the intended cooperator is the University of Massachusetts, specifically the Graduate School of Education. The project is associated with the Tsongas Industrial History Center, which aligns the work with educational programming connected to industrial history and related public interpretation and learning objectives that the NPS supports through partnerships. The funding activity category is listed as Education, and the opportunity is characterized as continuation funding, indicating it is tied to ongoing work or an existing relationship rather than a new, broadly competed program.
Financially, the announcement lists an estimated total funding amount of $462,000, with an award ceiling of $462,000 and an award floor of $246,972. Only one award is expected. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning the recipient is not required to provide a non-federal match as a condition of the federal funding. The CFDA number is shown as 00.000 (Not Elsewhere Classified), which typically indicates the listing is not mapped to a standard CFDA program code in the source record.
In terms of timing, the notice was posted and created on December 16, 2011. The original and current closing date are both December 21, 2011, and the archive date is December 22, 2011. Those dates reflect the administrative posting window for the notice rather than an application deadline, since the announcement explicitly states it is not soliciting applications.
Eligibility is listed as "Public and State controlled institutions of higher education," consistent with the intended recipient being a public university. For anyone needing access to the full announcement materials (referenced as an attachment under the "Full Announcement" section), the contact provided is Dawn Mach, Contract Specialist, at 215-597-0056, with the Tsongas Industrial History Center noted in the contact block.
