Opportunity Summary:
The Westfield Rvier Conservation Assistance opportunity is a National Park Service (NPS) notice stating the agencys intent to make a single, specific cooperative agreement award rather than run a competitive grant competition. It is issued by the United States Department of the Interior, National Park Service, and it is explicitly labeled as a NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD and NOT A REQUEST FOR APPLICATIONS. In practical terms, that means the NPS is not soliciting proposals from the public for this posting; instead, it is publishing a transparency notice that it plans to fund a predetermined recipient for a defined scope of work.
The funding vehicle is a Cooperative Agreement, which typically indicates a partnership-style arrangement where the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement in the project activities compared with a standard grant. The announcement describes the award as a continuation project: it is a new cooperative agreement (identified as P13AC01254) intended to continue work that began under a prior cooperative agreement (H4507080036). The identified cooperator is the Westfield State Foundation, Inc., and the purpose is to continue conservation assistance activities associated with the Rivers, Trails and Conservation Assistance program (CFDA 15.921), which falls under the Environment and Natural Resources activity category.
Financially, the posting indicates one expected award with an estimated total funding amount of $67,000. The award floor and ceiling are both listed as $67,000, suggesting a fixed planned amount rather than a range. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement noted, meaning the recipient is not required to provide a formal match as a condition of the award, based on the information shown in the notice.
Eligibility is listed as nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education). However, because this is not an open application opportunity, that eligibility statement functions more as a classification of the recipient type than an invitation for other nonprofits to apply. The posting dates reflect how short and administrative this type of notice can be: it was posted and created on September 4, 2013, with an original and current closing date of September 8, 2013, and then archived on September 9, 2013, reinforcing that it was primarily a public notice rather than a traditional funding solicitation period.
For additional details, the notice points readers to an attachment available under the Full Announcement section (not included in the text provided here). Anyone who cannot access the full announcement electronically is directed to contact Dawn Mach, Contract Specialist, at 215-597-0056 for assistance.
