Opportunity Summary:
The Invasive Plant Intern opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPSNOIGRCA00245) is a National Park Service (NPS) discretionary funding notice under the U.S. Department of the Interior. It is listed as a cooperative agreement within the Natural Resources activity area and is associated with CFDA 15.931. The posting date and creation date are both February 25, 2016, and the listed closing date is March 11, 2016.
This notice is explicitly labeled as a "Notice of Intent to Award," meaning it is not a request for applications and is not an open competition. Instead, NPS is publishing the announcement to provide public notice that it intends to make a single, non-competitive task agreement award. In practical terms, the agency has already identified the intended recipient or partner and is documenting that intent through this public posting rather than soliciting proposals from the general public.
The eligibility field indicates the type of organization associated with the planned award: nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education). The opportunity lists an expected number of awards of 1. The award ceiling is shown as 0, which typically indicates that a maximum funding amount was not provided in the announcement record (rather than confirming that no funding will be provided). Overall, this listing functions primarily as a transparency notice about a planned cooperative agreement related to invasive plant work and an intern role, not as an application opportunity for new applicants.
