Opportunity Summary:
This grant posting is a National Park Service (NPS), U.S. Department of the Interior notice stating the agency's intent to make a single, specific award for a project connected to Cape Cod National Seashore's Natural Resource Management and Science Division and its 2016 youth intern program. The key point of the announcement is that it is not an open competition and not a request for applications. Instead, it functions as a public transparency notice explaining that NPS plans to fund the described work without going through a full and open competitive process.
The opportunity is listed as a discretionary award and would be issued as a cooperative agreement, which typically means the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement in the project beyond simply providing funds. The funding activity category is labeled as "Other," indicating the work does not fit neatly into common categories like research, construction, or education in the standard Grants.gov taxonomy, and the specific clarification would be in the full announcement document referenced in the posting.
The listing shows an award ceiling of $67,769 and anticipates exactly one award. The associated CFDA number is 15.931, which corresponds to National Park Service programs. The posting was created and published on February 10, 2016, with a closing date of February 19, 2016. In this context, the "closing date" is best understood as an administrative deadline tied to posting requirements rather than an application deadline, since the notice explicitly states that applications are not being solicited.
Eligibility is broadly labeled as "Others," with the details deferred to the full announcement. That wording is common in notices like this because the intended recipient is often predetermined (for example, a specific partner organization), and the public-facing listing is primarily meant to document the agency's intention to proceed without competition. Anyone seeking the full rationale, project scope, or the identity or type of the intended partner would need to open the "Related Documents" section and review the full announcement referenced by NPS.
In practical terms, this announcement is best read as a formal heads-up: NPS is planning to support youth intern activities at Cape Cod National Seashore in 2016 through a cooperative agreement, up to about $67.8K, resulting in one award, and it is being done through a non-competitive process rather than an open call for proposals.
