Opportunity Summary:

The Notice of Intent to Award titled "Cultural Landscape Planning Intern" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS 16 NERO 065) is a National Park Service (NPS) funding notice issued by the U.S. Department of the Interior. It is categorized as a discretionary opportunity and uses a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument. The key point of this announcement is that it is not a request for applications and is not a competitive solicitation. Instead, it serves as a public notification that the NPS intends to fund a specific set of project activities without competition, meaning the agency has already identified the recipient or pathway for awarding the funds and is publishing the notice to document that intent publicly.

The opportunity is tied to CFDA number 15.931, which is commonly associated with National Park Service-related assistance programs. While the announcement includes an "Eligible Applicants" field, it lists eligibility generally as "Others" with a note to see additional eligibility clarification, which is typical for notices like this where the award is directed and not open to broad public competition. The overall purpose implied by the title is support for a cultural landscape planning intern, suggesting project work connected to cultural landscape documentation, planning, preservation, or related resource management needs within the NPS, though the provided text does not include detailed work tasks, location, or partner organization specifics.

From a funding standpoint, the announcement anticipates a single award (Expected Awards: 1) with an award ceiling of $28,106. The notice was created and posted on June 1, 2016, and lists a closing date of June 11, 2016. In the context of a non-competitive notice, the closing date typically functions more like an administrative posting period rather than a deadline for submitting applications, since applications are not being requested. Overall, this notice is best understood as a transparency measure: it tells the public that the NPS plans to issue one cooperative agreement, up to the stated ceiling amount, to support an internship focused on cultural landscape planning activities, without opening the project up for competitive proposals.
