Opportunity Summary:

Funding Opportunity Number P13AS00065, titled "Internship Training Program IMR, Historic Structures Inventory Program," is a National Park Service (NPS) discretionary funding opportunity that was issued as a cooperative agreement under the Education activity category. The purpose of the program is to create additional training opportunities for qualified students by placing interns in roles where they can support and learn from Federal government professionals working in historic preservation and related fields. In practical terms, the internships are meant to provide hands-on exposure to preservation work connected to historic structures, inventories, and allied cultural resource activities, with interns assisting NPS staff and gaining real-world experience in the field.

The opportunity anticipated a single award, with an estimated total funding amount of $18,584. The award ceiling was listed as $18,584, while the award floor was $1, indicating that the funding amount could be structured within that range, though the posted total and ceiling suggest it was designed around a specific, relatively small training-focused project. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning the recipient would not be expected to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of receiving the award.

Eligibility was limited to nonprofit organizations with IRS 501(c)(3) status, specifically excluding institutions of higher education. The program is associated with CFDA number 15.915, Technical Preservation Services, reflecting its alignment with federal historic preservation support and technical assistance functions. As a cooperative agreement, the award mechanism implies that NPS expected to have substantial involvement in the project, typically including collaboration, oversight, or coordination with the recipient as interns carry out work alongside federal preservation professionals.

Key timeline details show the opportunity was posted and created on May 21, 2013, and archived on May 31, 2013. The closing date is unusual because it was not open for competitive applications; it was issued as a "Notice of Intent to Award," with the explicit statement that no applications would be accepted. This indicates the NPS had already identified an intended recipient (or otherwise pre-determined award pathway) and published the notice for transparency rather than to solicit proposals. Additional information was referenced through Grants.gov, and a point of contact was provided for access issues: John Bechtold, Office Automation Clerk, at 303-969-2492 or JohnBechtold@nps.gov.
