Opportunity Information: Apply for NPS DOIP18AC00334
The FY2018 Implementation of Management Plan opportunity (Funding Announcement Number NPS-DOIP18AC00334; CFDA 15.939 National Heritage Area Federal Financial Assistance) is a National Park Service (NPS) notice of intent to award, not a call for new applications. Its purpose is to publicly announce that NPS plans to issue a task agreement under an existing master cooperative agreement that was previously competed (or otherwise justified as single-source). In other words, the recipient relationship is already established, and this notice is mainly about transparency around the planned award rather than soliciting proposals from the public.
The project supports implementation of the approved management plan for the Kenai Mountains-Turnagain Arm National Heritage Area (KMTANHA) in Alaska. National Heritage Areas are congressionally recognized landscapes where natural, cultural, historic, and scenic resources come together to tell nationally important stories about the American experience. This award is framed around work that advances those heritage area goals through practical on-the-ground and programmatic actions, specifically emphasizing planning, administration, marketing, and preservation and conservation projects that fit within the heritage area management plan and serve a public purpose.
Funding for the task agreement is listed as $327,720 in federal funds obligated, with a corresponding non-federal match of $327,720, indicating a dollar-for-dollar match expectation. The period of performance runs from October 1, 2018 through September 30, 2021, and the award instrument is a task agreement issued under Cooperative Agreement Number P15AC00199. The expected number of awards is one. Although the broader listing notes an eligibility category of nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), the notice itself makes clear this action is tied to the established management entity for KMTANHA, the Kenai Mountains-Turnagain Arm Corridor Communities Association (the Association).
Legally, NPS cites its authority under 54 U.S.C. 101702(a) regarding cooperative agreements and transfer of appropriated funds, along with the heritage area enabling legislation in Public Law 111-11. That law established the Kenai Mountains-Turnagain Arm National Heritage Area and directed the Secretary of the Interior to enter into a compact with the management entity, which is the Association.
The statement of work lays out the shared roles. The Association is responsible for developing and executing project contracts with individuals or organizations for board-approved projects (with specific FY2018 work items referenced in an attachment). It must oversee implementation by reviewing project progress at regular board meetings and reviewing financial reports submitted by subgrantees. A key compliance requirement is that the Association must complete review under Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act for any projects or subgrants that could affect properties listed in or eligible for the National Register of Historic Places, and it must do this before passing federal funds on to subgrantees.
NPS, in turn, commits to providing advisory, technical, and financial assistance to support management plan implementation. NPS will review the heritage area’s applicant list and recommended subgrants to confirm they align with the management plan and the heritage area’s enabling legislation. NPS also provides technical support for Section 106 work, including guidance on determining the appropriate level of effect, reviewing projects for consistency with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties, and helping facilitate consultation between KMTANHA and the Alaska State Historic Preservation Office.
Overall, this notice describes a structured, compliance-heavy implementation award meant to move the KMTANHA management plan forward through coordinated subgrants and projects, with strong federal oversight and technical support, a required non-federal match, and explicit historic preservation review obligations where applicable.Apply for NPS DOIP18AC00334
