Opportunity Summary:
The funding opportunity titled "Notice of intent to award, University of Central Under MA#P13AC00443" (Funding Opportunity Number P16AS00295) is a National Park Service (NPS) discretionary grant announcement issued by the U.S. Department of the Interior. It was created on June 27, 2016, with an original closing date of July 8, 2016. The notice is framed as an "intent to award," which typically signals that the agency expects to move forward with a particular cooperative agreement action and is opening the door for applications tied to that planned award.
The award mechanism is a Cooperative Agreement, which generally means the National Park Service anticipates having substantial involvement in the work as it is carried out, rather than simply issuing funds with minimal interaction. In practical terms, that kind of arrangement often includes coordination on study design, access to federally managed resources or sites, data-sharing expectations, and periodic technical check-ins to ensure the project stays aligned with NPS management needs and scientific goals.
The activity area is categorized under Environment and Natural Resources, and the listing is associated with CFDA number 15.945, which corresponds to National Park Service-related assistance. The project focus is research examining the effects of sea level rise on sea turtles. While the notice text is brief, the topic implies work that could include assessing how rising sea levels may affect sea turtle nesting habitat, nest inundation risk, shoreline change, habitat suitability over time, and potential impacts to reproductive success. Because this is tied to the National Park Service, the research likely supports resource management decisions in coastal park units where sea turtles nest or forage and where climate-driven shoreline change is a growing concern.
Eligibility is limited to institutions of higher education, including both public/state-controlled universities and private universities. The title references the University of Central under an existing master agreement (MA#P13AC00443), which suggests the funding action may be connected to an established partnership or umbrella agreement and that this specific task agreement is intended to support a defined research effort within that broader collaborative framework.
Financially, the announcement lists an award ceiling of $48,437 and indicates the agency expects to make one award. That combination (a single expected award and a relatively modest ceiling) reinforces the idea of a targeted project or a discrete research task, rather than a large multi-recipient competition. Overall, the opportunity is a small, focused cooperative agreement intended to fund one university-led research effort that helps the National Park Service understand and plan for sea level rise impacts on sea turtles and associated coastal resources.
