Opportunity Summary:
The Explorer Post #1791 2016 Internship grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number P16AS00584) is a National Park Service notice explaining its intent to fund a specific set of project activities through a cooperative agreement, rather than opening a competitive call for proposals. In other words, it is not a solicitation where multiple organizations are expected to apply and be evaluated against each other. Instead, it functions as a public transparency posting that the Department of the Interior, National Park Service plans to make a single award for the described internship-related work without competition.
The opportunity is categorized as "Other" for both the opportunity category and the funding activity category, with the agency noting that clarification would normally be provided in an additional explanatory field. The assistance listing tied to the opportunity is CFDA (now commonly referred to as Assistance Listing) 15.931, which is associated with National Park Service programs. The funding instrument type is a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates that the NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the project during performance (for example, collaboration on planning, oversight, coordination, or other ongoing participation), rather than simply issuing a grant with minimal federal involvement.
Financially, the notice lists an award ceiling of 1 (as provided in the source data) and indicates that one award is expected. The posting was created on August 30, 2016, with an original closing date of September 9, 2016. Even though a closing date is provided, the key point is that the announcement explicitly states it is not a request for applications; the date mainly reflects the administrative window for the public notice rather than a competitive application deadline.
Eligibility is broadly labeled as "Others," with the expectation that a separate eligibility clarification field would specify the intended recipient or the type of partner considered eligible. The central takeaway is that the NPS is signaling its intention to fund the Explorer Post #1791 2016 Internship activities through a non-competitive cooperative agreement, with a single anticipated award, and is publishing the notice to meet public notice requirements rather than to invite submissions from the general applicant pool.
