Additional Information on Eligibility: THIS FUNDING ANNOUNCEMENT IS NOT A REQUEST FOR APPLICATIONS. THIS ANNOUNCEMENT IS TO PROVIDE PUBLIC NOTICE OF THE NATIONAL PARK SERVICE'S INTENT TO FUND A NATIONAL HERITAGE AREA FEASIBILITY STUDY TO SHOREBANK ENTERPRISE CASCADIA WITHOUT FULL AND OPEN COMPETITION.
Grant Description: the U.S. Department of Interior, National Park Service, Lewis and Clark National Historic Park, intends to make a single source award to Shorebank Enterprise Cascadia (SBEC) of Ilwaco, Washington. This is a noncompetitive award in accordance with Department of Interior Policy, Departmental Manual 505DM2, and Public Law 110-229, which requires NPS to study the feasibility of designating the region at the mouth of the Columbia River as the Columbia Pacific National Heritage Area (NHA). NHAs are a partnership program between the NPS and a management entity. Legislation designating an NHA conveys certain authorities and public responsibilities upon the management entity. The management entity administers the NHA program through guidance, oversight, and partnership provided by the NPS. SBEC is the management entity for the proposed Columbia Pacific NHA. The National Park Service intends to award a Cooperative Agreement to SBEC for the feasibility study based upon this announcement. SBEC will provide a portion of the funding for the project.
