Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "Cataloging BIA Collections Housed at the Western Archeological and Conservation Center" (Funding Opportunity Number P16AS00265) is a U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service (DOI-NPS) discretionary funding opportunity focused on natural resources-related work. The project centers on cataloging Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) collections that are housed at the Western Archeological and Conservation Center (WACC). In practical terms, the work implied by the title is collections documentation: organizing, recording, and updating catalog information so that the BIA-held materials at WACC are properly accounted for and more easily managed, retrieved, and used for stewardship and compliance purposes.
This opportunity is offered as a cooperative agreement rather than a standard grant. A cooperative agreement typically means the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement in the project beyond simply providing funds, such as coordinating technical direction, collaborating on workflows or standards, or participating in oversight and deliverables. The notice indicates there is expected to be one award, with an award ceiling of $46,988, which effectively signals the maximum federal amount anticipated for the single selected project under this announcement.
Eligibility is limited to a specific applicant type: nonprofits that do not have 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, other than institutions of higher education. That wording generally points to a narrow subset of nonprofit entities, potentially including certain quasi-governmental or nonprofit organizations that operate without 501(c)(3) designation, while explicitly excluding (or carving out separately) institutions of higher education. Applicants outside that category would not be considered eligible under the terms provided.
Timing information in the source data indicates an original and current closing date as "NOI," which commonly refers to a Notice of Intent stage rather than a final application deadline being specified in the summary fields. The opportunity was created and posted on June 16, 2016. The listing does not provide additional narrative details such as period of performance, required deliverables, evaluation criteria, or specific cataloging standards in the excerpt provided, but the basic purpose, administering agency, funding mechanism, eligibility constraints, and funding cap are clearly defined in the opportunity metadata.
