Opportunity Summary:
The Interns - Youth Partnership Program grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIR3800110031) is a National Park Service discretionary funding action in the education activity category, carried out through a cooperative agreement rather than a typical open grant competition. The notice explains that the National Park Service intended to make a single task agreement award under an existing umbrella Cooperative Agreement (P11AC30386). In practical terms, this means the funding was structured as an add-on task agreement issued under a broader, already-established cooperative agreement framework, with the task agreement inheriting the umbrella agreement's terms and conditions.
This announcement is explicitly not a request for applications. It is a notice of intent to make a noncompetitive award, citing DOI policy at 505 DM 2.12C as the authority for proceeding without competition. The eligible applicant language reflects that limited scope: while the listing shows "Others" in the general eligibility field, the detailed eligibility statement clarifies that this is a single-source award specifically to the Wolf Trap Foundation for the Performing Arts. As a result, other organizations were not being invited to apply, and there was no competitive selection process associated with this posting.
The opportunity is associated with CFDA number 15.931, Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations, indicating the broader federal assistance program area tied to youth participation and conservation-related or service-oriented activities. The total estimated funding listed for the action is $26,500, with no cost sharing or matching requirement. The award ceiling and floor are both shown as $0, which is a common artifact in postings that function as notices of intent or administrative announcements rather than standard competitive solicitations with defined minimums and maximums for applicants.
Timing information in the posting reflects how narrowly targeted and administrative this notice was. It was posted on July 13, 2011, with an original and current closing date of July 14, 2011, and an archive date of August 13, 2011. A one-day window like this typically signals that the posting is meant to document the agency's intent and meet internal or public notice requirements, rather than provide time for outside parties to prepare and submit applications.
For anyone needing the full announcement materials or having trouble accessing them electronically, the listed point of contact was Rita Oliver, Contract Specialist at the National Park Service, reachable by phone at 301-432-7890 or by email at ritaoliver@nps.gov.
