Opportunity Summary:
The Groundwork Southcoast Launch and Capacity Building opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number P16AS00346) is a National Park Service (NPS) discretionary funding notice issued by the U.S. Department of the Interior. It is categorized under Natural Resources and is associated with CFDA number 15.954. The funding instrument type is a cooperative agreement, which generally means the NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the funded work rather than simply issuing a grant and stepping back.
This notice is not a request for applications and it is not opening a competitive application process. Instead, it functions as a public notice that the NPS intends to make a single award without competition to support the project activities described as "Groundwork Southcoast Launch and Capacity Building." In other words, the agency is signaling its intent to fund a specific effort with a specific recipient or a narrowly defined eligible party, rather than soliciting proposals from the broader public.
The announcement was created on July 15, 2016, and lists an original closing date of July 29, 2016, which in this context is best read as the end of the public notice period rather than a traditional deadline for submitting applications. The expected number of awards is one, and the award ceiling is $87,963, indicating the maximum planned federal funding amount for this action.
Eligibility is listed broadly as "Others," with the note that additional clarification would be found in the full eligibility text of the announcement. That phrasing typically appears when eligibility is limited to a particular organization type, a named entity, or a specific partner relationship that does not fit neatly into standard categories (such as state governments, local governments, tribes, universities, or nonprofits). Overall, the key takeaway is that this is a non-competitive, single-award cooperative agreement notice from the NPS to support startup and organizational capacity-building activities for Groundwork Southcoast, with funding up to $87,963.
