Opportunity Summary:
The opportunity titled "NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD YOUTH CORPS" (Funding Opportunity Number NPSPETR1500857) is a National Park Service (NPS) public notice stating the agencys intent to make a single cooperative agreement award. It is important to note that this announcement is not a call for proposals and not a competitive grant solicitation. Instead, it serves as formal public notice that NPS plans to proceed with an award without full and open competition, using an existing Master Cooperative Agreement (P13AC00641). In other words, this posting is informational and is meant to document the governments intention to award through a pre-established agreement mechanism rather than accept and review new applications from the public.
Administratively, the opportunity is categorized as a discretionary award using a Cooperative Agreement as the funding instrument, with the activity area listed under Natural Resources. The listing references CFDA 15.931, "Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations," which generally aligns with youth corps style conservation and stewardship work that supports public lands and related resource objectives. The announcement indicates an expected number of awards of one (1), reinforcing that it is a specific intended award action rather than an open competition where multiple applicants could receive funding.
The estimated total funding amount associated with the intended award is $28,000. The posting lists an award ceiling and award floor of $0, which typically signals that the specific funding amount is handled within the intended award document itself and that the posting is not structured like a traditional competitive funding opportunity with published minimums and maximums. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement identified for this action.
In terms of timing, the notice was posted on June 4, 2015, with an original and current closing date of June 15, 2015, and an archive date of June 16, 2015. Since this is not a request for applications, these dates function more like an administrative public notice window rather than an application submission deadline for prospective grantees.
Eligibility is listed generally as "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," but the core eligibility message is effectively superseded by the central statement that the NPS intends to award noncompetitively under the referenced master cooperative agreement. Practically speaking, this means the opportunity is not open for new applicants to compete for the funds through this announcement.
