Opportunity Summary:
The "2016 CCNB Fire Fuels Reduction" notice (Funding Opportunity Number P16AS00568) is a discretionary funding action from the U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service (NPS). It is issued as a Notice of Intent to Award, meaning it serves as public notification that NPS plans to fund a specific project with a specific partner. It is not an open solicitation and not a request for applications, so other organizations are not being asked to apply or compete for this funding.
The award is structured as a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates that NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the project in coordination with the recipient, rather than simply issuing a grant and stepping back. The project is tied to Task Agreement P16AC01649 under an existing Cooperative Agreement (P15AC00008) with Conservation Corps North Bay. The project title indicates a focus on fire fuels reduction, which typically refers to field-based work intended to lower wildfire risk and improve resource protection by reducing accumulated vegetation or other combustible materials in targeted areas, often in or near park lands.
From an administrative standpoint, the opportunity is categorized under Education and Natural Resources, and it falls under CFDA (now often referenced as Assistance Listing) number 15.931, which corresponds to National Park Service programs. The eligible applicant type listed is nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education). However, because this is a notice of intent rather than a competitive announcement, the eligibility field functions more as a classification of the recipient type than an invitation for others to apply.
Financially, the notice indicates an award ceiling of $32,000 and an expectation of a single award. The posting date (creation date) is August 26, 2016, and there is no application closing date because no applications are being accepted. Overall, this notice is best understood as a transparency and documentation step: NPS is publicly stating its intent to direct up to $32,000 through a cooperative agreement mechanism to Conservation Corps North Bay to carry out defined fire fuels reduction activities under the referenced task agreement.
