Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS), within the U.S. Department of the Interior, issued a Notice of Intent to Award for a discretionary cooperative agreement tied to education-focused work on the Juan Bautista de Anza National Historic Trail. The notice is strictly a public announcement of the agency's plan to fund a specific project and recipient; it is not a competitive grant solicitation and does not invite applications. In other words, there is no open application window, no request for proposals, and no expectation that additional organizations will submit materials for consideration under this notice.
The opportunity is listed under the title "Education and Outreach Programs, Juan Bautista de Anza National Historic Trail" with Funding Opportunity Number P16AS00436. The funding instrument is a Cooperative Agreement, which typically signals that NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the project beyond simply providing funds, such as collaborating on planning, deliverables, or implementation. The program area is categorized as Education, and it is associated with CFDA number 15.935 (the National Historic Trail-related assistance program used by NPS for this type of work).
The NPS states its intention to make a single award with an expected total amount up to an award ceiling of $22,042, and it anticipates one award in total. The named partner for the cooperative agreement is the Environmental Education Exchange, and the referenced agreement identifier is P16AC01380. Because this is a notice of intent to award without full and open competition, the central purpose is transparency: it informs the public that NPS plans to fund these education and outreach activities through a noncompetitive process with that organization.
The eligible applicant category shown for the opportunity is nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education). Even though that eligibility description is included in the listing, it does not function as a call for new applicants here because the notice explicitly says the opportunity is not a request for applications. The posting date (creation date) is August 13, 2016, and the "original closing date" field reinforces the same point by indicating there is no application deadline since no applications are being solicited.
Overall, this notice communicates that NPS intends to support a defined set of education and outreach program activities connected to interpretation, public engagement, and learning opportunities related to the Juan Bautista de Anza National Historic Trail, carried out via a cooperative agreement with the Environmental Education Exchange, for a modest, fixed-scale award amount, and awarded as a single, noncompetitive action.
