Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "Development of Coating Formulation for Stone Conservation" (Funding Opportunity Number P16AS00350) was issued by the U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service (NPS). It is categorized as a discretionary funding action and would be awarded through a cooperative agreement, which typically means the NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the project beyond simply providing funds. The opportunity falls under the funding activity category of Employment, Labor and Training and is associated with CFDA number 15.912.
This notice is explicitly not a request for applications. Instead, it serves as a public announcement that the NPS intended to fund specific project activities without a competitive process. In practical terms, that usually indicates the agency had already identified a particular recipient or partner that it planned to support, and the posting was made to satisfy transparency and public-notice requirements rather than to solicit proposals from the broader community. The eligible applicant field is listed as "Others," with a note that additional eligibility details would be provided elsewhere in the full announcement, but the key takeaway is that it was not structured as an open competition.
The posting was created on July 15, 2016, with an original closing date of July 29, 2016. The award ceiling was listed as $41,001, and the NPS expected to make a single award. The project focus, as reflected in the title, centers on developing or refining a coating formulation intended for stone conservation, which generally relates to preserving and protecting stone materials in historic or cultural resources, potentially including monuments, masonry, or other stone features managed or overseen by the National Park Service. The brief description provided does not include technical requirements, deliverables, or performance period details, but the overall intent is clear: a small, single-award cooperative agreement to support non-competitive work on a stone-conservation coating formulation under NPS direction or collaboration.
