Opportunity Summary:

The Groundwork Richmond Green Team opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number P15AS00289) is a discretionary National Park Service (NPS) notice describing the agency's intent to make a single, specific cooperative agreement award for conservation and natural resource-related work carried out by a youth service organization. It is issued by the United States Department of the Interior, National Park Service, and is categorized under Natural Resources with the CFDA listing 15.931, "Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations." The notice is essentially a public transparency posting rather than an open funding competition.

This announcement is not a request for applications and does not invite proposals from the general public. Instead, it serves as formal public notice that NPS intends to fund certain project activities without full and open competition through Task Agreement P15AC01474 under a pre-existing master Cooperative Agreement (P14AC00266) with Groundwork Richmond. In other words, the funding pathway and recipient are already identified, and the purpose of the posting is to document NPS's intent to proceed with that planned award.

The planned award amount is fixed at $27,434, with the award ceiling and floor both listed as $27,434, indicating there is no range or variability expected for the funding level. NPS anticipates making one award in total. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement associated with this particular funding action, meaning the recipient is not required to contribute additional non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the federal support.

Eligibility is listed broadly as 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations other than institutions of higher education, but in practice the notice specifies Groundwork Richmond as the intended recipient under the existing cooperative agreement framework. The posting date and creation date are August 10, 2015, and the notice was archived on August 20, 2015. Both the original and current closing dates state that it is not a request for applications, reinforcing that there is no application window because the award is not being competed.

For additional details, the notice points readers to Grants.gov for the full announcement record. If someone has trouble accessing the announcement electronically, the contact provided is William Nash, Contract Specialist, reachable at 415-623-2262 or via email at WilliamNash@nps.gov.
