Opportunity Summary:

The Quagga and Resource Management Intern Program (Funding Opportunity Number P14AS00390) is a National Park Service (NPS) notice of intent to award funding under the U.S. Department of the Interior. It is important to note that this posting is not a request for applications and does not open a competitive application process. Instead, it serves as a public notice that the NPS intends to fund specific project activities without full and open competition through an existing partnership arrangement.

The funding will be issued as a cooperative agreement in the environment activity category, with an estimated total funding amount of $245,000 and an expected single award. No cost sharing or matching funds are required. The opportunity is associated with CFDA number 15.931, "Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations," which signals a focus on conservation-related work that also supports youth or early-career workforce development through structured service and internship experiences.

This award is tied to Task Agreement #P14AS00390 under Cooperative Agreement P11AC00158 with the Great Basin Institute, a nonprofit organization. While the general eligibility field lists nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), the notice makes clear that the NPS is proceeding with a specific recipient under an existing cooperative agreement framework rather than soliciting proposals from the broader community. In practical terms, that means the listing functions as transparency documentation for a planned, directed award rather than an open grant competition.

The posting dates indicate it was created and posted on September 20, 2014, and later archived on September 27, 2014. Both the original and current closing dates are explicitly stated as "This is not a request for applications," reinforcing that there is no application window and no opportunity to submit a proposal in response to this announcement.

Anyone needing assistance accessing the full announcement is directed to contact the NPS financial agreements officer listed in the notice: Lilette Baltodano (415-623-2251, lilettebaltodano@nps.gov). An additional information link is provided through Grants.gov (http://www.grants.gov) for reference to the public posting.
