Opportunity Summary:
The "Intern Program Department of Defense" opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS WASO P12AC10592) is a National Park Service (NPS) financial assistance award listed as a grant under the broader activity category of education. Despite being presented in the format of a grant opportunity notice, it is not an open competition. The announcement is explicitly a Notice of Intent to Award, meaning the agency has already identified the recipient and is moving forward with issuing a specific task agreement.
This notice states that Task Agreement P12AC10592 will be awarded to the National Council for Preservation under an existing cooperative agreement (P12PA30140). Because the award is tied to that pre-existing cooperative agreement framework, the NPS is not seeking applications or proposals from other organizations. The posting makes this point repeatedly: no proposals are being accepted. In practical terms, this functions more like a public transparency posting than a solicitation, documenting the government intent to fund a specific partner for this defined task.
The award details indicate there will be one expected award with a total estimated funding amount of $5,160. The funding range is fixed, with the award ceiling and award floor both listed as $5,160, which suggests the amount is set and not subject to negotiation through a competitive proposal process. Cost sharing or matching is not required. The CFDA listing shown is 15.916, identified as "Outdoor Recreation Acquisition, Development and Planning," which is the catalog classification used for federal assistance tracking and reporting.
Eligibility is listed as nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), but that eligibility language does not imply an open application period here because the notice restricts the award to the named organization under the referenced cooperative agreement. The posting timeline shows it was posted and created on June 14, 2012, had an original and current closing date of June 27, 2012, and was archived on July 27, 2012, which is consistent with a time-limited public notice rather than a standard competitive funding cycle.
For administrative or access questions about the announcement, the listed point of contact is Andrew Lubner, Contract Specialist, reachable by phone at 303-969-2378 or by email at andrewlubner@nps.gov.
