Opportunity Information: Apply for NPS DOIP19AC00587
The FY2019 Implementation of Management Plan opportunity is a National Park Service (NPS) Notice of Intent to Award financial assistance under the Department of the Interior. It is important to note that this posting is not a call for proposals and not a competitive grant solicitation. Instead, it serves as a public notice that the NPS planned to make a specific award for defined activities tied to an existing, approved management plan. The opportunity appears on Grants.gov under number NPS DOIP19AC00587, with a creation date of June 11, 2019 and an original posting close date of June 20, 2019, reflecting the administrative window for public notice rather than an application deadline for new applicants.
The planned award instrument is a cooperative agreement, which typically means the NPS expected to have substantial involvement during the project period (for example, coordination, technical input, or shared oversight), rather than simply issuing funds with minimal federal engagement. The anticipated recipient is the Kenai Mountains-Turnagain Arm Corridor Communities Association, a nonprofit organization eligible under the listing that includes 501(c)(3) entities other than institutions of higher education. Only one award was expected.
In terms of funding, the notice lists an anticipated federal funding amount of $332,097, with the same figure shown as the total anticipated award amount. Although the abstract also contains a separate $1,000,000 figure labeled as anticipated federal funding in one table, the structured Grants.gov fields for award ceiling and total anticipated amount point to $332,097 as the intended federal assistance for this particular action. The award ceiling is also shown as $332,097, reinforcing that this was a single, capped award rather than an open-ended funding pool. The period of performance is planned for October 1, 2019 through September 30, 2022, covering three federal fiscal years of implementation work.
The legal and program framework for the award is tied to National Heritage Area authorities, cited as 54 U.S.C. 101702(a), and the assistance is listed under CFDA 15.939, National Heritage Area Federal Financial Assistance. The public purpose rationale is rooted in the congressional establishment of the Kenai Mountains-Turnagain Arm National Heritage Area (KMTA NHA) under Public Law 111-11. The legislative intent described in the notice emphasizes telling nationally important stories within the heritage area boundaries and supporting preservation and conservation connected to the region's history, including the experiences and legacies of Native Alaskans, Russians, miners, and other settlers who traveled through and developed parts of the northeastern Kenai Peninsula and surrounding lands.
The substance of the project is implementation of the Kenai Mountain Turnagain Arm National Heritage Area Management Plan. The activities funded under the cooperative agreement are described as planning, administration, marketing, and preservation and conservation projects that take place during the 2019 to 2022 period and remain within the scope of the approved management plan. The management plan is portrayed as a practical roadmap for conserving resources and interpreting them for the public, using multiple approaches such as developing interpretive themes, promoting resource conservation, strengthening partnerships across the heritage area, and encouraging growth of a regional tourism and recreation economy. The plan also includes action areas to protect and promote heritage resources and acknowledges the need to secure and coordinate partnership funding sources as part of long-term sustainability.
A key theme throughout the notice is direct community benefit and measurable public value. The NPS explains that management of the KMTA NHA is fundamentally tied to public purpose because the plan includes an inventory of natural, cultural, historic, recreational, and scenic resources that may merit protection and promotion for public enjoyment and understanding. The cooperative agreement is intended to fund community projects that directly advance the plan's objectives, benefiting local communities as well as residents and visitors traveling through the heritage area. For additional details or administrative questions, the NPS point of contact listed is Patrick Lewis (907-422-0543, patricklewis@nps.gov).Apply for NPS DOIP19AC00587
