Opportunity Summary:
This grant listing is a Notice of Intent to Award from the U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service (NPS), specifically tied to Everglades National Park. It is not an open funding competition and not a request for applications. Instead, it serves as a public notification that the NPS plans to provide funding for a specific, pre-identified project without full and open competition, using a cooperative agreement mechanism.
The project is titled "S356 Pump Station Groundwater Monitoring" and is associated with groundwater monitoring work in Everglades National Park related to the S-356 pump station. The intended partner for this work is the South Florida Water Management District, and the award is to be made under Cooperative Agreement P15AC00031. The opportunity is categorized under Natural Resources and is tied to CFDA number 15.954 (National Park Service Conservation, Protection, Outreach, and Education), indicating the project fits within NPS conservation and resource protection functions.
Administratively, the opportunity appears in Grants.gov under Funding Opportunity Number P15AS00094, with a posted and created date of April 8, 2015. The stated closing date is April 9, 2015, which reflects the short window typical of notices that are purely informational rather than application-driven. The archive date is April 11, 2015. The NPS anticipated making one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $49,300. The listing shows no cost sharing or matching requirement. It also lists an award ceiling and floor of $0, which is common in notices where the precise award parameters are handled through the existing agreement rather than an application process.
Even though the eligibility field references "City or township governments," the substance of the notice makes clear that this action is a directed, non-competitive award to the South Florida Water Management District. In other words, there is no practical pathway for other organizations to apply because the purpose of the posting is transparency about an intended sole-source or otherwise non-competitively awarded cooperative agreement action.
