Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS), within the U.S. Department of the Interior, posted this item as a Notice of Intent to Award for a project titled "Complete Channel Islands National Park Administrative History." It is important to note that this notice is not a request for applications and does not open a competition for new proposals. Instead, it serves as a public announcement that NPS plans to provide funding for specific work through an existing relationship, and that it intends to do so without full and open competition.
The planned award is structured as a cooperative agreement, which generally means NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the project as it is carried out (for example, coordinating on scope, reviewing deliverables, or providing guidance during development). The work will be issued as Task Agreement P16AC00652 under a broader master Cooperative Agreement (P15AC00813). The identified recipient is the Mountains Restoration Trust, and the notice indicates NPS will fund the project through that partner rather than soliciting other applicants.
The opportunity is categorized as discretionary funding and placed under an "Other" funding activity category, indicating it does not fit neatly into more common program categories and is instead tied to this specific project purpose. The CFDA number associated with the listing is 15.946, which corresponds to National Park Service assistance programs.
In terms of funding and scale, the notice lists an award ceiling of $48,797 and anticipates a single award (Expected Awards: 1). The posting date and creation date are both May 5, 2016, and both the original and current closing dates are explicitly stated as "This is not a request for applications," reinforcing that there is no application window because the intent is to make a directed, non-competitive award.
Eligibility information is included in the record, listing "Nonprofits that do not have a 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, other than institutions of higher education." Even though eligibility categories are shown, the practical effect here is limited because the notice is not soliciting submissions; it is documenting the government’s intention to proceed with a specific partner on a specific administrative history project for Channel Islands National Park.
