Opportunity Summary:
This notice is a National Park Service (NPS), U.S. Department of the Interior, public announcement that the agency intends to make a single, specific award to support education activities connected to Longfellow House - Washington's Headquarters National Historic Site. It is labeled as a "Notice of Intent to Award," which means it is not a competitive grant solicitation and not a request for applications. In other words, the NPS is letting the public know it plans to fund a defined project with a selected recipient without going through a full and open competition process, and the posting is primarily about transparency rather than inviting new proposals.
The opportunity is identified on Grants.gov as "Notice of Intent to Award: Support Longfellow House - Washington's Headquarters National Historic Site Education" with the funding opportunity number NPS 16 NERO 0018. The planned funding mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates the NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the project beyond simply issuing funds (for example, collaborating on program direction, deliverables, or implementation). The listed funding activity category is "Other," with the implication that the specific education-related scope is explained in the full announcement materials rather than captured in a standard category label.
Financially, the notice indicates an award ceiling of $36,599 and anticipates one award total. The CFDA program number associated with the opportunity is 15.931, which is the NPS-authorized assistance listing used to track and report this type of federal financial assistance. The posting dates show it was created and posted on February 12, 2016, and it lists a closing date of February 22, 2016. In the context of a notice of intent to award, that closing date generally functions as an administrative deadline for the notice posting period rather than a deadline for submitting applications, since applications are not being solicited.
Eligibility is shown broadly as "Others," with a note that additional eligibility details are provided elsewhere (typically in the full announcement or related documents). However, because the notice explicitly states the award will be made without full and open competition, the eligibility field should not be read as an invitation for interested organizations to apply; it is more a reflection of how the record is categorized in the system. Anyone seeking the specifics of what educational activities are being supported, who the intended recipient is (if named), the planned statement of work, and the justification for noncompetitive funding would need to open the full announcement via the "Related Documents" link referenced in the notice.
Overall, the key takeaway is that this is a small, single-award, noncompetitive NPS cooperative agreement intended to support education programming at Longfellow House - Washington's Headquarters National Historic Site, posted to provide public notice rather than to launch an open grant competition.
