Opportunity Summary:
This notice is a National Park Service (NPS) "Notice of Intent to Award" for a project involving the Student Conservation Association. It is not an open call for proposals and it is not requesting applications from the public. Instead, it serves as a formal public announcement that the NPS plans to fund specific project activities through a cooperative agreement without using full and open competition. In practical terms, that means the agency has already identified the intended recipient and is documenting its intent to make a single award rather than running a competitive grant process.
The opportunity is listed under Funding Opportunity Number NPS 16 NERO 0155 and is categorized as a discretionary funding action. The funding instrument type is a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates that the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement in the project as it is carried out (for example, coordination, technical input, or shared responsibilities), rather than simply providing money and stepping back. The funding activity category is labeled "Other," with additional clarification referenced in the full notice materials.
The notice is associated with CFDA number 15.931, which corresponds to National Park Service assistance programs. Eligibility is not broadly available; it is marked as "Others" with direction to look at the additional eligibility information in the full documentation. Given the title and structure of the notice, the intended partner is the Student Conservation Association, and the listing is primarily about transparency and compliance rather than seeking new applicants.
The anticipated award details are straightforward: the expected number of awards is one, and the award ceiling is $39,647. The listing shows it was created on August 18, 2016, with an original closing date of August 28, 2016. Because this is not a request for applications, that closing date functions more like an administrative timeline for posting, review, or documentation rather than a deadline for competitive submissions.
Anyone looking for the full rationale, scope of work, or specific project activities would need to consult the "Related Documents" referenced in the announcement on Grants.gov. The notice also points users to the Grants.gov Support resources for navigation help and general grant information, but again, the core point of this posting is that it is a pre-identified, non-competitive intent to fund a specific project through a cooperative agreement with a single recipient.
