Opportunity Summary:
This notice is a National Park Service (NPS) announcement that it plans to make a single award for a project titled "Integrate and Enhance Youth Internship Opportunities at ASIS 2016." It is explicitly a Notice of Intent to Award, meaning the agency is publishing this information to notify the public that it intends to fund a specific set of project activities without using a full, open, competitive application process. In other words, it is not inviting new proposals and it should not be read as a standard grant competition. The NPS points readers to the full announcement in the posting's related documents for the detailed scope of work, partner information, and rationale for the noncompetitive approach.
The opportunity is issued by the U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service, under funding opportunity number NPS 16 NERO 0029. The funding mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates the agency expects to have substantial involvement during the project period (for example, collaboration on planning, coordination, deliverables, or oversight), rather than simply issuing funds with minimal federal participation. The activity category is listed as "Other," suggesting the work does not fit neatly into standard grant categories and that the full text would clarify what specific activities are supported under that label. The listing includes CFDA number 15.931, which is the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance identifier used to track federal assistance programs.
Financially, the notice indicates an award ceiling of $39,013 and an expectation of one award, reinforcing that this is a targeted, single-recipient action rather than a broad funding opportunity. The posting and creation dates are March 22, 2016, with a closing date of April 1, 2016. In the context of a notice of intent to award, that "closing date" is better understood as an administrative cutoff for the posting rather than a deadline for submitting applications, since applications are not being solicited.
Eligibility is described generally as "Others," with the document noting that additional eligibility details are provided elsewhere in the full announcement. That phrasing commonly appears in noncompetitive or specialized assistance listings where a particular organization, partnership type, or narrowly defined entity is expected to receive the award. The title and brief description indicate the project focus is on youth internship opportunities connected to ASIS 2016, with an emphasis on integration and enhancement, implying coordination, expansion, or improvement of existing internship pathways rather than creating a generic internship program from scratch. For anyone trying to understand the specific planned activities, expected outcomes, or the intended recipient/partner, the posting directs users to consult the "Full Announcement" file linked in the related documents section on Grants.gov.
