Opportunity Summary:
The Weir Farm National Historic Site, CT Dry Stone Masonry Services opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS 11 NERO 0001) is a National Park Service notice of intent to award funding for historic preservation work focused specifically on dry stone walls at Weir Farm National Historic Site in Connecticut. It is categorized as a discretionary opportunity and uses a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument, with the activity area described as historic preservation of dry stone walls. The announcement was posted on October 26, 2010, had an original and final closing date of October 31, 2010, and was archived on November 1, 2010.
A key point is that this is explicitly not a request for applications. Instead, it functions as a public transparency notice stating that the National Park Service intends to fund project activities without full and open competition. The award is to be made through Task Agreement J1953100023 under an existing Cooperative Agreement (H4870060023) with a named cooperator, Dry Stone Conservancy, Inc. In practical terms, this means the NPS had already established a cooperative relationship with that organization and planned to issue a specific task agreement under that umbrella, rather than soliciting new proposals from the public.
The total funding amount is fixed at $66,779, with the award floor and ceiling both listed as $66,779, indicating a single expected award at that exact amount. The opportunity anticipates one award and does not require cost sharing or matching funds. While the eligibility field lists nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), the non-competitive nature of the notice and the identification of the intended cooperator indicate that the practical recipient was already determined for this particular action.
For additional details, the announcement directs readers to the attachment available through the Full Announcement link on Grants.gov (as it existed at the time). For issues accessing the announcement electronically, the listed point of contact is Jennifer Fleming, Contract/Agreements Specialist at the National Park Service, reachable by phone at 215-597-6476. The notice also points users to general Grants.gov help resources for navigation and general grants information, even though the posting itself is not an open application opportunity.
