Opportunity Summary:
The Westfield River Westfield Wild and Scenic River Assistance opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS 11 NERO 0094) is a National Park Service notice stating the agency's intent to make a single continuation award under an existing cooperative agreement. It is explicitly labeled as a "Notice of Intent to Award" and, importantly, it is not a request for applications. In practical terms, this means the NPS is not soliciting competitive proposals from the public; instead, it is publicly documenting its plan to provide additional funding to continue work already underway.
The action is described as a modification to continue projects under Cooperative Agreement H4507080036 with the cooperator identified as The Trustees of Reservations. The announcement indicates the NPS intends to fund the stated project activities without full and open competition, which is typical for certain continuation actions where an ongoing partnership and approved scope of work already exist. While the brief text does not spell out the specific tasks in detail, it directs readers to the attachment under the "Full Announcement" section for complete project information, implying that the detailed work plan, deliverables, and justification for the continuation are contained there.
From a funding and administrative standpoint, the opportunity is categorized as continuation funding and uses a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument, signaling that substantial involvement by the federal agency is expected during the project (as opposed to a more hands-off grant). The activity category is Natural Resources, and the opportunity is associated with assistance related to the Westfield River and its Wild and Scenic River context. The total estimated funding is $100,000, and both the award floor and ceiling are also listed as $100,000, indicating the NPS anticipated one award at a fixed amount rather than a range of possible award sizes. The expected number of awards is one. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement.
Eligibility is listed broadly as nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education). However, because this is not an open solicitation and is tied to a specific existing cooperative agreement with a named cooperator, the eligibility field is largely informational rather than an invitation for other entities to apply. The timeline reinforces the administrative nature of the notice: it was posted and created on August 24, 2011, with an original and current closing date of August 29, 2011, and it was archived on August 30, 2011.
For access issues or questions about obtaining the full announcement materials, the notice provides a point of contact: Peggy Wall, Administrative Officer, reachable by phone at 410-260-2473.
