Opportunity Summary:
The Natural Resources Management Intern opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPSNOITUMA1600574) is a National Park Service notice indicating the agency's intent to make a single, non-competitive award under a cooperative agreement. It is classified as a discretionary funding action within the Natural Resources activity area and is associated with CFDA 15.931. The key point is that this announcement is strictly a public notice and not a request for applications, meaning the National Park Service is not soliciting proposals or accepting submissions from the public in response to this posting.
The notice explains that the National Park Service (DOI-NPS) plans to issue a task agreement without competition, which typically implies an identified partner or an existing relationship under a broader agreement framework. While the title suggests the work involves supporting natural resources management through an intern position, the announcement itself does not provide programmatic details such as duties, project location, period of performance, or specific deliverables. The posting also lists an award ceiling of $0, which often appears in notices that are informational in nature or where the specific funding amount is determined in the task agreement rather than announced publicly in the synopsis.
Eligibility is limited to nonprofit organizations that have 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, excluding institutions of higher education. Even with that eligibility statement, the non-competitive nature of the action and the explicit statement that it is not a request for applications indicate that eligible entities generally cannot apply through this announcement. The National Park Service expects to make one award. The opportunity was created and posted on April 25, 2016, and it lists a closing date of May 6, 2016, which functions more as an administrative posting window than a true application deadline since applications are not being accepted.
