Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS) posted a government funding notice titled "Collaborative Natural Resources Monitoring and Education" under Funding Opportunity Number P14AS00366. The notice makes it clear that it is a Notice of Intent to Award rather than a competitive grant solicitation. In other words, it is not asking the public to submit applications. Instead, it serves as formal public notice that NPS intends to provide funding for a specific set of project activities without full and open competition.
The funding instrument identified is a Cooperative Agreement, and the activity area is Natural Resources, tied to CFDA 15.944 (Natural Resource Stewardship). The anticipated award amount for the task covered by this notice is up to 45,000 dollars, with an award ceiling of 45,000 and an award floor of zero. Only one award is expected. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement listed, meaning the recipient is not expected to provide required matching funds as a condition of the award.
This action is described as being issued under an existing umbrella Cooperative Agreement that was previously established with the organization. Under that structure, NPS can fund individual pieces of work through Task Agreements rather than issuing a brand-new open competition each time. The notice references an attached "Notice of Intent / Single Source Justification" for additional detail, which is typically the document that explains why a non-competitive, single-source approach is being used and why the identified partner is appropriate for the work.
The eligible applicant category shown is nonprofits with IRS 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), but the practical meaning in this case is limited because the notice is not inviting proposals. The cooperator identified for the work is Point Reyes National Seashore, indicating the project activities are connected to that park unit and likely focused on collaborative natural resources monitoring and related education efforts supporting park stewardship priorities.
Key dates in the posting show it was posted on September 13, 2014, with an original and current closing date of September 17, 2014, and an archive date of September 19, 2014. Because this is not an application-based opportunity, the "closing date" functions more like the end of the public notice period rather than a deadline for submissions.
