Opportunity Summary:
The opportunity titled "Perform Preservation Maintenance on Historic Structures" (Funding Opportunity Number NPSNOIOSFT1600579) is a National Park Service (NPS) notice stating its intent to make a single, non-competitive award. In other words, it is not an open call for proposals and it is not seeking applications from the public. The purpose of the posting is strictly to provide transparency and public notice that NPS plans to issue a task agreement to a selected partner to support preservation maintenance work on historic structures.
This action is listed as a discretionary funding opportunity using a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument, which typically means the federal agency expects to remain substantially involved in the work (for example, coordinating technical direction, compliance requirements, and oversight during execution). The activity category is identified as "Other," with the implication that the work is specialized and tied to preservation maintenance rather than fitting neatly into standard grant categories.
Eligibility is limited on paper to nonprofit organizations with IRS 501(c)(3) status that are not institutions of higher education, but because the award is explicitly described as non-competitive, the listing does not function as an invitation for eligible entities to apply. The notice indicates NPS expects to make one award (Expected Awards: 1). The Award Ceiling is shown as 0, which usually signals that a specific dollar amount is not being competed or publicly defined in this notice, or that the figure is handled through the associated task agreement documentation rather than through the public synopsis.
Key dates show the notice was created and posted on May 5, 2016, with a closing date of May 19, 2016. In practice, that closing date should be read as the end of the public notice period rather than an application deadline, since the announcement explicitly states it is not a request for applications. The CFDA number associated with the opportunity is 15.931, tying it to the relevant NPS assistance program classification used for federal financial assistance reporting and tracking.
Overall, the posting is best understood as a formal "notice of intent to award" by the Department of the Interior, National Park Service, announcing an upcoming, pre-selected cooperative agreement task arrangement to carry out preservation maintenance on historic structures, with no competitive application process attached to this particular announcement.
