Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service funding opportunity titled "National Park Service, Seven Undergraduate Interns to Support Divisions within Haleakala National Park" is a discretionary grant notice issued as a Notice of Intent (NOI) for a noncompetitive cooperative agreement. In practical terms, it signals that the agency plans to make a single award without a full competitive process, citing Department of the Interior policy guidance (Department Manual 505 DM 2) as the basis for using a noncompetitive approach. The project focus is to place seven undergraduate interns in roles that support multiple divisions within Haleakala National Park, aligning the activity with employment, labor, and training goals tied to natural resource work.
The opportunity is associated with CFDA number 15.931, "Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations," which indicates the broader federal program area this award falls under. The National Park Service expected to make one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $27,106 and an award ceiling of $27,106, meaning the maximum planned award amount matches the total funding estimate. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient would not be expected to provide additional funds to meet a match threshold as a condition of the agreement.
Eligibility is limited to nonprofit organizations that have 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, specifically excluding institutions of higher education from eligibility under this notice. The funding instrument type is a cooperative agreement, which typically implies that, compared with a standard grant, the National Park Service anticipates having substantial involvement in the project during performance, such as coordinating intern activities, aligning assignments with park needs, or providing oversight and guidance related to the interns' work within park divisions.
The posting and timeline information places the notice in 2012. It was posted on May 10, 2012, with the opportunity created the same day.
