Opportunity Summary:
The Chesapeake Youth Corps Crew and Intern opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS 23 NERO 0062) is a National Park Service (NPS) discretionary funding action under the U.S. Department of the Interior. It is issued as a Notice of Intent to Award, meaning it is not a competitive solicitation and not a request for applications. Instead, it serves as public notice that NPS intends to enter into a cooperative agreement arrangement without full and open competition for specific project activities tied to Task Agreement P13AC00720 under an existing Cooperative Agreement (P12AC30653). The identified cooperator for this work is the Parks and People Foundation, a qualifying 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.
The project is categorized under Education and Environment and is associated with CFDA 15.931, Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations. While the title highlights a youth corps crew and intern component, the announcement itself focuses mainly on the administrative posture of the award: NPS is moving forward with a single expected award to carry out conservation and youth engagement-related activities as defined in the attached full announcement materials (referenced as being available under the "Full Announcement" section). Because it is a cooperative agreement, the work is typically characterized by substantial involvement from NPS in addition to the recipient carrying out project tasks, although the specific roles and responsibilities are contained in the referenced task agreement and attachment rather than spelled out in the short notice text.
Financially, the opportunity lists an estimated total funding amount of $108,519, with both the award ceiling and award floor set at $108,519, indicating a fixed, single-award funding amount rather than a range. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement noted. The opportunity was posted on June 28, 2013, with an original and current closing date of July 2, 2013, and an archive date of July 3, 2013, reflecting that it was a brief notice period consistent with an intent-to-award announcement rather than a standard open application window.
Eligibility is stated as nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), but given the non-competitive nature and the explicit identification of the Parks and People Foundation as the cooperator, the eligibility language functions more as a classification of the recipient type than an invitation for new applicants. For technical issues accessing the full announcement, the contact listed is Peggy Wall, Administrative Officer, at 410-260-2473, with an NPS office email referenced (not fully shown in the provided text).
