Opportunity Summary:

The grant opportunity titled "Integrated Resource Management Internships and Science at the Point Reyes National Seashore" (Funding Opportunity Number P14AS00367) is a National Park Service discretionary funding action released as a Notice of Intent to Award, meaning it is not an open solicitation and is not requesting applications from the public. Instead, the purpose of the posting is to formally notify the public that the National Park Service intends to fund a specific set of project activities without full and open competition. The work falls under the Natural Resources activity category and is tied to CFDA 15.944, Natural Resource Stewardship, reflecting a focus on resource management and science support at Point Reyes National Seashore.

The anticipated funding associated with this task agreement is capped at $150,000 total, with an award ceiling of $150,000 and an award floor of $0, and the agency expects to make one award. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement listed, so the recipient would not be required to contribute a non-federal match as a condition of receiving the funds. Although the eligibility field notes that eligible applicants are nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education), this notice is specifically tied to a single-source intent: the identified cooperator is the Point Reyes National Seashore Association. The notice explains that an umbrella Cooperative Agreement was previously established with this organization, and the National Park Service carries out specific project work under that larger agreement through individual task agreements, which is why this action is being handled without open competition.

In practical terms, the announcement signals that the National Park Service plans to support integrated resource management internships and related scientific activities at Point Reyes National Seashore through this cooperative relationship. While the posting does not provide detailed scopes or deliverables in the text provided, the title and program category indicate that funds are intended to bolster on-the-ground natural resource stewardship capacity, likely by supporting internship positions and science and monitoring efforts that assist park staff with management priorities. The notice also references an attached "Notice of Intent - Single Source Justification" for additional background and rationale, which is where the agency would typically document the justification for limiting competition and outline the planned work at a higher resolution.

Key administrative dates show the opportunity was posted on September 13, 2014, with an original and current closing date of September 17, 2014, and an archive date of September 19, 2014. Because it is a Notice of Intent rather than a competitive opportunity, the "closing date" functions more as the end of the public notice window than an application deadline. Anyone needing help accessing the full announcement is directed to the National Park Service contact listed: Yvonne Morales at (415) 464-5221 or yvonnemorales@nps.gov.
