Opportunity Summary:
This notice is a National Park Service (NPS) announcement that it intends to make a single cooperative agreement award for a project titled "Integrate and Enhance Youth Internship Opportunities at ASIS 2016." It is explicitly not a request for applications, meaning the NPS is not seeking proposals from the public and there is no competitive selection process associated with this posting. Instead, the purpose is to provide transparency and public notice that the agency plans to fund specific project activities through a non-competitive award.
The opportunity is issued by the U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service (DOI-NPS) under Funding Opportunity Number NPS 16 NERO 0035. It is categorized as a discretionary funding action and will be carried out using a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates that NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the project beyond simply providing funds (for example, coordination, technical input, or joint oversight). The funding activity category is listed as "Other," with further clarification referenced in the full notice materials.
The total anticipated funding amount for this action is capped at $39,013 (the award ceiling), and the NPS expects to make one award in total. The notice was created and posted on April 5, 2016, with a listed closing date of April 15, 2016. In the context of a notice of intent to award, that date generally functions as an administrative timeline for the posting rather than a deadline for submitting applications, since applications are not being solicited.
Eligibility is broadly labeled as "Others," with additional eligibility details deferred to the notice's supporting documentation. The program is associated with CFDA number 15.931. Anyone looking for the complete rationale for the non-competitive approach, the intended recipient (if identified), the specific project scope, deliverables, and the nature of NPS involvement would need to review the attached "Related Documents" referenced in the posting, because the summary text provided in the listing does not include those operational specifics.
In practical terms, the key takeaway is that NPS is signaling its intention to directly fund a specific youth internship enhancement effort connected to ASIS 2016 through a single cooperative agreement, without opening the project up for full and open competition. The Grants.gov posting is mainly a compliance and public-notice mechanism rather than an open grant opportunity that organizations can apply to.
