Opportunity Summary:
This announcement is a Notice of Intent to Award from the U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service (NPS), specifically involving Cumberland Island National Seashore. It is not a call for proposals and not a request for applications. Instead, it serves as a public notice that the NPS plans to make a single cooperative agreement award without full and open competition. The intended recipient is The Student Conservation Association (SCA), and the planned project is titled "Bravo Conservation Crew" on Cumberland Island.
The opportunity is listed under Funding Opportunity Number P15AS00106 and is categorized as a discretionary award using a Cooperative Agreement funding instrument. The activity area is Natural Resources, and it falls under CFDA 15.931, "Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations," which generally supports conservation work carried out through youth and service-based organizations. The notice indicates there will be one expected award, and it specifically identifies Cooperative Agreement P15AC00031 as the mechanism under which the work will be supported.
Funding for the project is estimated at $28,141 in total. The listing shows an award ceiling of $0 and an award floor of $0, which typically reflects that the exact range is not being competed or advertised in the way a normal open solicitation would be, rather than indicating there is no funding. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement attached to this award. While the general eligibility category is nonprofits with IRS 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), this notice makes clear the intent is to fund SCA directly and that new applications are not being accepted.
Key dates included in the posting show it was posted and created on April 22, 2015, with an original and current closing date of April 29, 2015, and an archive date of April 30, 2015. In this context, the closing date functions more as the end of the public notice period rather than a deadline for submitting applications, since the announcement is explicitly non-competitive and not soliciting proposals.
For anyone needing the full announcement or having trouble accessing it through Grants.gov, the contact provided is Sandra Newton, Financial Assistance Officer, at 305-242-7028 or SandraNewton@nps.gov. The listing also points to Grants.gov for additional information via the provided link.
