Opportunity Summary:
The "Groundwork RVA Project and Program Development" opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number P16AS00056) is a discretionary grant announcement issued by the U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service (DOI-NPS). It falls under the Environment funding activity category and is associated with CFDA 15.921. The posting and creation dates are both March 25, 2016, and the listed closing date is April 8, 2016.
This notice is specifically not a request for applications. Instead, it serves as a public notice that the National Park Service intends to fund certain project activities without competition, meaning the agency has already identified a recipient or otherwise plans to make an award through a non-competitive process rather than opening it up for public applications. The listing indicates an expectation of one award.
The opportunity title suggests the funded work relates to project and program development under the "Groundwork RVA" effort, but the provided text does not include details about the exact tasks, deliverables, project scope, period of performance, or the intended recipient. Eligibility is broadly categorized as "Others," with the note that additional eligibility clarification would normally appear in a separate eligibility information field, but that detail is not included in the source text provided.
The award ceiling is listed as 0, which typically indicates that a maximum award amount was not specified in the synopsis or is to be defined elsewhere in the full funding documentation or internal award materials. Overall, the key takeaway is that this is a non-competitive NPS grant action notice tied to environmental programming, published to meet public transparency requirements rather than to solicit proposals.
