Opportunity Summary:
The WSR Maurice River CMP Implementation opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS 13 NERO 0129) is a National Park Service notice of intent to award funding through a cooperative agreement, specifically focused on continued environmental and natural resource work tied to the Maurice River. The key point of the posting is that it is not a request for applications and not a competitive solicitation. Instead, it serves as a public notice that the National Park Service plans to move forward with a single, non-competitive continuation-style award to support project activities already underway.
This action is structured as a new cooperative agreement (P13AC01210) that continues work previously supported under an earlier cooperative agreement (H4507080503). The intended partner named in the announcement is Citizens United to Protect the Maurice River and its Tributaries, Inc., a nonprofit organization. In practical terms, the funding is meant to keep implementing components of the Maurice River Comprehensive Management Plan (CMP) associated with the Wild and Scenic Rivers (WSR) program, with the NPS maintaining substantial involvement consistent with the cooperative agreement instrument.
The opportunity falls under the environment and natural resources funding activity category and is associated with CFDA number 15.921, Rivers, Trails and Conservation Assistance. The total estimated funding amount is $47,000, and the award ceiling and floor are both listed as $47,000, indicating a single award at a fixed amount. The expected number of awards is one, and there is no cost-sharing or matching requirement identified for the recipient.
Eligibility is listed generally as 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations other than institutions of higher education, but the notice makes clear that this posting is purely informational because the NPS intends to fund the specified cooperator without full and open competition. The posting dates reflect that it was published on August 22, 2013, with an original and current closing date of August 26, 2013, and an archive date of August 27, 2013, reinforcing that this was a short window notice rather than an open application period.
For anyone needing the full announcement materials but having trouble accessing them online, the NPS provided a contact: Dawn Mach, Contract Specialist, reachable by phone at 215-597-0056. The notice also directs readers to consult the attachment under the Full Announcement section for complete project details.
