Opportunity Summary:
The Notice of Intent to Award (NOI) titled "NOI TA: Urban Rangers and Youth Outreach" is a National Park Service (NPS) announcement under the U.S. Department of the Interior that serves mainly as a public transparency notice. It is not a call for proposals and not a competitive grant opportunity. Instead, it signals that NPS intends to fund a specific set of project activities through a cooperative agreement, and that the agency plans to do so without "full and open competition." In practical terms, this type of posting is used when an agency has already identified a particular partner or arrangement and is formally documenting its intent to make an award.
The opportunity is listed as a discretionary funding action and will be made using a cooperative agreement, which typically means NPS expects to have substantial involvement in carrying out the work (as opposed to a standard grant where the recipient operates more independently). The program is tied to CFDA number 15.931, which corresponds to NPS assistance programs. While the title suggests the work relates to "Urban Rangers and Youth Outreach," the posting itself does not include detailed project activities in the text provided and points readers to the "Related Documents" section on Grants.gov for the full justification, scope, and other specifics.
Key administrative details include the funding opportunity number "NPS 16 NERO 0074," with the agency listed as DOI-NPS. The posting date and creation date are both June 8, 2016, and the closing date is June 18, 2016. Even though a closing date is shown, it should be interpreted in the context of an NOI: it marks the public notice period rather than an application deadline for new applicants. The announcement indicates an expected total of one award, with an award ceiling of $69,999.
Eligibility is broadly labeled as "Others," with the note that additional eligibility clarification is found in a separate text field or the related documents. However, because this is a notice of intent to make a noncompetitive award, eligibility information is largely informational rather than an invitation for organizations to apply. Anyone looking for further context, including the rationale for awarding without competition, the identity of the intended recipient (if disclosed), and the exact deliverables for the urban ranger and youth outreach work, would need to consult the attachments or linked documentation referenced in the Grants.gov listing.
