Description
PLEASE ENSURE YOU ARE FAMILIAR WITH ALL THE INFORMATION IN THE ABOVE NOTICE OF FUNDING OPPORTUNITY BEFORE APPLYING.
With few notable exceptions in allowable periods of performance, 2024 administrative grant applications and awards will be the same as 2023 (see information for the applicant below).
Applicants no longer need to limit personnel expenditures to one year and the overall grant to three. We recognize the strategic value in awarding a 4-5 year administrative grant that can be successively amended in cost and scope. This prevents overlapping periods of performance and simplifies reporting. If you have already been awarded an administrative grant in 2023, work with your NPS program officer to advance a cost increase amendment, not a new 2024 administrative grant award.
Award amounts are still recommended to be greater than $200,000 and less than 7% of the state’s apportionment. Applications with proposed awards outside of this range should justify the request in the budget narrative according to the program goals of: 1) improving participation in ORLP and formula grant programs, 2) addressing deficient formula grant implementation areas, 3) improving monitoring of LWCF assistedparks and sub-recipients.
Recommendations to applicants include: 1) work with your NPS program officer to review the application prior to submission, 2) pay special attention to Budget Object Classifications definitions within the SF424a instructions and use these BOC’s in the budget narrative to make sure there is tight correspondence, 3) include a signed, written request for reimbursement of any equipment costs included in budget, and 4) allow time for revisions to the SF424a.
