Opportunity Summary:
The Yuma Crossing NHA Task Agreement (Funding Opportunity Number NPS IMR P12AC10223) is a National Park Service funding action tied to the continued management and implementation of the Yuma Crossing National Heritage Area (NHA). The purpose is to provide financial assistance to the officially designated managing entity for the heritage area, consistent with the federal authorities that established and govern the site: Public Law 106-319 and its subsequent amendment under Public Law 109-318. In practical terms, this opportunity supports ongoing heritage area operations and work that align with the NHA mission, such as stewardship of natural and cultural resources, interpretation and education, and coordination among partners within the heritage area.
This announcement falls under a mandatory opportunity category and uses an "Other" funding instrument type, structured as a task agreement for fiscal year 2012 under an existing cooperative agreement (P12AC30244). Rather than being an open competition, it is explicitly identified as not a request for applications. Instead, it serves as a Notice of Intent to Award a single-source task agreement to the Yuma Crossing National Heritage Area Corporation, which is the recognized managing entity for the site. Because of that structure, the listing is mainly informational and is meant to document the federal intent to direct funds to that specific organization under the governing legislation and the cooperative agreement framework.
The funding details indicate an estimated total funding amount of $343,000, with an expectation of one award. No award ceiling or floor is specified (both are listed as $0), which typically signals that the amount is governed by the task agreement and related budget documents rather than competitive ranges posted for multiple applicants. The opportunity includes a cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning the managing entity is expected to provide matching funds and/or in-kind contributions as part of the overall project or program budget, consistent with the terms of the cooperative agreement and any statutory or policy requirements applicable to heritage area assistance.
Key dates show the announcement was posted and created on April 16, 2012, with an original and current closing date of April 20, 2012, and an archive date of May 20, 2012. Those dates are largely administrative here, since the notice is not soliciting applications from the public. Eligibility is listed as "Others," but the accompanying eligibility clarification makes it clear that the only intended recipient is the Yuma Crossing National Heritage Area Corporation.
For questions or help accessing the full announcement, the National Park Service provided a point of contact: Kristin ONeil, Contract Specialist (Phone: 970-586-1236), listed in the announcement as the contracting contact for this action.
