Opportunity Summary:
The "Bandelier conservation and preservation crews" opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPSNOIBAND1600360) is a National Park Service (DOI-NPS) notice stating the agency's intent to make an award without competition, rather than soliciting proposals from the public. It is categorized as a discretionary funding action and would be issued as a cooperative agreement under the Natural Resources activity category. The core point of the announcement is that it functions as a Notice of Intent to Award and explicitly says it is not a request for applications, meaning there is no open application process associated with this posting.
The eligible applicant type listed for the intended award is a nonprofit organization with IRS 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education). The posting indicates the NPS expects to make one award, consistent with the non-competitive nature of the action and the phrasing about a "task agreement." While the title suggests work involving conservation and preservation crews at or connected to Bandelier (commonly referring to Bandelier National Monument in New Mexico), the notice does not provide project specifics, scope details, deliverables, or a budget amount within the publicly posted summary.
Key dates in the record show the announcement was created and posted on March 24, 2016, with an "original" and "current" closing date of April 7, 2016. In this context, the closing date operates more like an administrative end date for the public notice period rather than a deadline to submit applications, since applications are not being accepted. The award ceiling is listed as 0, which typically indicates the ceiling amount was not provided in the public notice or was not captured in the summary fields, not necessarily that no funding will be provided.
In practical terms, this listing is mainly useful as transparency documentation: it tells the public that the National Park Service planned to enter into a single, non-competitive cooperative agreement for conservation and preservation crew-related work, and it identifies the basic administrative attributes of that planned award (agency, instrument type, applicant type, program classification via CFDA 15.931, and the expected number of awards).
