Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service grant opportunity titled "Data Management" (Funding Opportunity Number P11AT80708) is a discretionary grant focused on supporting conservation-related data management work tied to ongoing and newly developing natural and cultural resource management projects. The core purpose is to improve how project information is documented, organized, preserved, and made usable over time by systematically capturing data and archiving records connected to resource management and conservation efforts. The project is structured as a collaborative effort, meaning participants are expected to work closely with park or program staff to support the documentation needs that come along with planning, compliance, and on-the-ground conservation activities.
A central feature of this opportunity is the use of interns to carry out much of the practical work while building career-relevant experience. Interns are expected to gain exposure to planning and environmental assessment processes, including work connected to NEPA (National Environmental Policy Act) and FLPMA (Federal Land Policy and Management Act). The role emphasizes hands-on skill development in GIS and general data management tasks such as data entry, quality control, data archiving, and organizing project files so that information remains accessible and defensible for future decision-making. Interns also develop professional communication skills through report writing and other documentation tasks that support project tracking and project completion.
From a tools and workflow standpoint, the opportunity highlights common government and conservation program software, specifically ArcView for GIS work and the Microsoft Office Suite for databases, spreadsheets, written products, and general office productivity tasks, along with other software as needed. The emphasis is not only on technical data handling, but also on understanding why good records matter in conservation programs, where data often supports compliance, monitoring, funding justification, and long-term stewardship.
Another important component is active participation in conservation project implementation. Rather than being limited to office-based data tasks, interns are expected to engage directly with project work in the field or in implementation settings, which helps connect the documentation process to real-world outcomes. This approach is meant to strengthen the interns' understanding of how conservation projects are planned, executed, and then documented, and how the data lifecycle (collection, storage, archiving, reporting) supports transparency and continuity across years and staff changes.
Administratively, the opportunity lists an expected award count of one, with an estimated total funding amount of $91,520 and no cost sharing or matching requirement. The funding activity category is described as "Other," with a clarification indicating the activity is centered on conservation activities. The CFDA number associated with the program is 15.931, described as "Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations," and the eligibility is limited to a youth organization. The posting and creation dates are August 10, 2011, and the listing indicates the agreement has already been awarded to ACE, meaning it is not currently open for competition. For access issues related to the original announcement, the contact provided is Barbara Eschels, Supervisory Contract Specialist, at 702-293-8909.
