Opportunity Summary:
The "Intern Park Cultural Resources Program, Archeology Program" funding opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS WASO P12AC10611) is a National Park Service (NPS) financial assistance action being issued as a Notice of Intent to Award rather than an open competition. In practical terms, this means the NPS is announcing that it plans to make a single award under an existing cooperative agreement framework, and it is not inviting or accepting applications or proposals from the broader public. The notice is tied specifically to Task Agreement P12AC10611 under Cooperative Agreement P12PA30140, with the intended recipient identified as the National Council for Preservation.
The opportunity is categorized under "Other" with the funding instrument type listed as a Cooperative Agreement, and the activity category is Education (with the listing framed as financial assistance). While the title references an intern cultural resources and archeology program within parks, the posted announcement itself is administrative in nature and does not provide a program narrative, work plan, or statement of need beyond the intent-to-award language. The key takeaway is that the award is pre-identified and constrained to a specific partner organization via the referenced cooperative agreement and task agreement mechanism.
Funding details are straightforward and fixed: the expected number of awards is 1, and the total estimated funding is $20,640. The award ceiling and award floor are both $20,640, indicating the amount is set rather than a range. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement associated with this award. The CFDA number listed is 15.916, identified as "Outdoor Recreation Acquisition, Development and Planning," which is the cataloging program area under which the assistance is being reported.
Eligibility is listed generally as nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status other than institutions of higher education, but the eligibility statement reiterates that this is a Notice of Intent to Award to the National Council for Preservation and that no proposals are being accepted. So, even though a broader eligibility category appears in the record, it does not function as an open call; it is effectively a directed award announcement.
The announcement was posted and created on June 14, 2012, with an original and current closing date of June 27, 2012, and an archive date of July 27, 2012. The agency issuing the notice is the National Park Service. For access issues or questions about the announcement, the contact listed is Andrew Lubner, Contract Specialist, reachable by phone at 303-969-2378 or by email at andrewlubner@nps.gov.
