Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS), part of the U.S. Department of the Interior, issued a Notice of Intent to Award for a project titled "PRORANGER Philadelphia Program - 2016 Operational Phase and Leadership Camp" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS 16 NERO 0030). The key point of this posting is that it is not a competitive grant solicitation. It is simply public notice that NPS plans to provide funding for a specific set of project activities through a cooperative agreement, and that the award will be made without full and open competition. In other words, the opportunity is not seeking new applications from the general public; it is announcing NPS intent to fund a particular effort through a designated partnership arrangement.
The instrument NPS plans to use is a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates that the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement in the funded project rather than acting solely as a pass-through funder. The activity category is listed as "Other," implying the work does not fit neatly into standard categories like research or construction and instead aligns with the particular programmatic needs described in the full announcement. The program is associated with CFDA number 15.931, which corresponds to NPS assistance programs.
Financially, the notice indicates an award ceiling of $94,834 and an expectation of one award, reinforcing that this is aimed at a single recipient rather than multiple grantees. The posting dates show it was created and posted on March 23, 2016, with an April 2, 2016 closing date. In the context of a notice of intent to award, that closing date functions more like an administrative timeline for the public notice period rather than a deadline for submitting proposals, since the announcement explicitly states it is not a request for applications.
Eligibility is broadly labeled as "Others," with the detail deferred to the full announcement under an additional eligibility clarification field. However, because the notice specifies funding "without full and open competition" and anticipates only one award, eligibility in practice is typically tied to a specific organization or a narrowly defined partner type already selected or justified by NPS for this project. Anyone trying to respond as a new applicant would generally be redirected, since the purpose of the posting is transparency about a planned noncompetitive award rather than an open call.
For anyone looking for more detail on what the PRORANGER Philadelphia operational phase and leadership camp activities include, the posting directs readers to the "Related Documents" section on Grants.gov and then to the full announcement. It also notes that Grants.gov has standard support resources for navigation and general grant-application information, although the core message here remains that the listing is informational and not an invitation to apply.
