Design - Repoint Brick Masonry | NPS 17 NERO 0127

Opportunity Information: Apply for NPS 17 NERO 0127

The funding opportunity titled "Design - Repoint Brick Masonry" (Funding Opportunity Number: NPS 17 NERO 0127) is a National Park Service notice published by the U.S. Department of the Interior. It falls under the discretionary opportunity category and uses a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument. The activity is listed under the Humanities category (referencing Cultural Affairs under CFDA), with the associated CFDA number 15.954. The posting was created on August 8, 2017, and lists an original closing date of August 17, 2017.

The key point of this notice is that it is not an open call for proposals and not a request for applications. Instead, it serves as a public notification that the National Park Service intended to make a specific award: a task agreement issued under an existing master cooperative agreement that had already been competed previously, or justified as a single-source arrangement. In practical terms, this type of posting is typically used to meet transparency and public notice requirements when an agency plans to fund work through an already-established partnership mechanism rather than soliciting new applications from the general public.

The notice indicates an expected number of awards of one, with an award ceiling of $77,605, suggesting a single, relatively small design-focused project. Based on the title, the work concerns design services related to repointing brick masonry, which generally refers to evaluating and planning the repair or replacement of mortar joints in brickwork, often in a preservation or historic-resource context. Since this is issued by the National Park Service and categorized under humanities/cultural affairs, the project likely supports the preservation of historic structures or culturally significant built resources within the National Park System or related sites.

Eligibility is broadly labeled as "Others," with the implication that eligibility details were meant to be clarified in an additional eligibility information field. However, because the announcement is explicitly not a request for applications and is tied to a pre-existing cooperative agreement vehicle, the practical eligibility is effectively limited to the partner(s) already covered under that master cooperative agreement. For organizations or individuals not already part of that arrangement, the notice functions mainly as informational rather than as an opportunity to apply for funding.
