Opportunity Summary:

The National Park Service (NPS), within the U.S. Department of the Interior, published a Notice of Intent to Award (NOI) for a project titled "NOI TA: Geomorphological Change" under Funding Opportunity Number NPS 16 NERO 0084. This posting is essentially a public transparency notice explaining that NPS plans to make an award for specific project activities without using full and open competition. It is explicitly not a request for applications, meaning the public should not prepare or submit proposals in response to this announcement, and the listing functions primarily as a formal notification that an award is intended.

The planned award would be issued as a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates that NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the project beyond simply providing funds (for example, collaboration on technical direction, coordination, or deliverables). The opportunity is categorized as discretionary and is associated with CFDA (now commonly referred to as Assistance Listing) number 15.945. While the title indicates the work concerns geomorphological change, the public-facing summary provided in the listing does not include technical specifics such as study location, methods, objectives, partner institution, timelines, or deliverables; those details would normally be contained in the "Related Documents" referenced in the notice.

Financially, the notice lists an award ceiling of $49,991 and anticipates a single award (Expected Awards: 1). The posting date (creation date) is June 23, 2016, and the original closing date is July 3, 2016. In the context of an NOI, that closing date generally reflects the period during which the public can view the notice and any associated documentation rather than a deadline for submitting applications, since applications are not being solicited. Eligibility is broadly labeled as "Others," with the expectation that additional eligibility context would be provided in the opportunity’s eligibility clarification field or the related documentation; however, because this is a non-competitive intent-to-award notice, eligibility details are less relevant for prospective applicants than they would be for an open funding competition.

In practical terms, this announcement signals that NPS intends to directly support a particular geomorphological change project through a cooperative agreement, up to the stated ceiling amount, and that the agency is meeting public notice requirements by posting the intent on Grants.gov. Anyone looking for more substantive information about what work is being funded, who the intended recipient is, and why the award is being made without full competition would need to consult the referenced "Related Documents" section tied to the Grants.gov listing.
