Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS), within the U.S. Department of the Interior, issued a public Notice of Intent to Award for a project titled "A Second Century of Resource Stewardship, Science Education and Communication at Cabrillo National Monument." This notice is not a call for proposals and not a competitive funding opportunity. Instead, it is a formal transparency posting to let the public know that NPS plans to provide funding for specific work under an existing partnership arrangement, without conducting full and open competition.
The planned award is structured as a cooperative agreement, meaning NPS expects to be substantially involved in the project rather than simply providing a hands-off grant. The funding would be issued through Task Agreement P16AC01809 under a larger, already-established master Cooperative Agreement (P14AC01677) with the Cabrillo National Monument Conservancy. In practice, that indicates the Conservancy is the intended partner for carrying out the work, and the notice serves to document that the agency plans to proceed with that partner under the umbrella of an ongoing agreement.
The project focus, as reflected in the title and activity categories, centers on long-term resource stewardship at Cabrillo National Monument along with science education and public communication. Resource stewardship typically includes activities that help protect and manage natural and cultural resources, such as supporting monitoring, conservation planning, or other efforts that sustain the park's resources over time. The education and communication components imply work that helps translate park science and stewardship needs into learning experiences and outreach for visitors and the broader community, potentially through interpretive programming, educational materials, or public-facing science communication connected to the monument's resources and mission.
From an administrative standpoint, the opportunity is listed as discretionary funding within the Education and Natural Resources activity categories and is associated with CFDA number 15.954 (a catalog identifier used for federal assistance programs, now generally aligned with assistance listings). The eligible applicant category shown is nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status other than institutions of higher education, which aligns with the named partner being a nonprofit conservancy affiliated with the park. The posting lists an expected single award, with an award ceiling of $204,710, indicating the anticipated maximum federal funding level for this specific task agreement. The notice was created on September 13, 2016, and it includes no application deadline because no applications are being accepted; the announcement exists solely to provide public notice that NPS intends to fund this defined set of activities through the specified noncompetitive task agreement.
