Opportunity Information: Apply for NPS 17 NERO 0030
The National Park Service (NPS), within the U.S. Department of the Interior, issued a public notice titled "Operation and Public Presentation of the Thomas Cole Historic House (TCHH)" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS 17 NERO 0030). Despite appearing in the format of a funding opportunity announcement, the notice explicitly states that it is not a request for applications. In practical terms, this means the NPS is not inviting new proposals from the public or from potential partners at this time. Instead, the purpose of the posting is transparency: it alerts the public that the agency intends to make an award through an existing relationship framework rather than running a new competitive grant process.
The planned award will be made as a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates substantial involvement by the federal agency in carrying out the work compared with a standard grant. The announcement also notes that the award will be issued as a task agreement under a master cooperative agreement that was either previously competed or supported by a single-source justification. That phrasing suggests the NPS has already established an overarching agreement with an eligible partner (or set of partners), and this action is a specific, scoped task under that umbrella, rather than a standalone competition.
As described by the title and limited details provided, the work scope centers on the operation and public presentation of the Thomas Cole Historic House. "Operation" typically implies supporting the ongoing functioning of the site, while "public presentation" points to visitor-facing activities such as interpretive programming, tours, exhibitions, educational outreach, and related efforts that help the public understand and engage with the site and its significance. The funding activity category is listed as "Other," indicating it does not fall neatly into common categories like research or construction and is instead tied to site operations and interpretive or public history functions.
The anticipated federal funding amount for this action has an award ceiling of $86,680, and the NPS expects to make one award. The listing identifies the opportunity category as mandatory and gives a CFDA number of 15.954, which is a federal assistance listing associated with NPS assistance programs. Eligibility is labeled broadly as "Others," with the additional note that eligibility details would be clarified elsewhere; however, because this is not an open solicitation, the eligibility language mainly reflects the administrative classification of the notice rather than an invitation for new applicants to qualify.
The notice was created on April 6, 2017, with an original closing date of April 16, 2017. Given the repeated statement that it is not a request for applications, the "closing date" should be understood as the end of the public notice period rather than a deadline for submitting proposals. Overall, the announcement functions as a formal public posting that the NPS intends to issue a single cooperative agreement task under an already-established master cooperative agreement to support continued operations and visitor-oriented presentation at the Thomas Cole Historic House.Apply for NPS 17 NERO 0030
