Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS) announced a small, targeted cooperative agreement action titled "Task Agreement with Greening Youth for Intern" (Funding Opportunity Number WASO NPS P13AC00199). This notice functions as a formal intent to award a task agreement under an existing cooperative agreement with the Greening Youth Foundation (GYF), rather than an open competition for new applicants. The opportunity sits within the education activity category and aligns with CFDA 15.931, Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations, with the purpose of supporting a short-term, structured internship under the Cultural Resources Diversity Internship Program (CRDIP).
The core of the task agreement is that GYF will recruit and hire one qualified undergraduate or graduate-level intern for CRDIP, with a clear emphasis on outreach to minority and underrepresented students. GYF is responsible for the full administrative and logistical support associated with that placement, including payroll administration, arranging and covering housing and travel expenses, making travel arrangements, conducting workshops, and providing other intern benefits. In other words, GYF serves as the partner organization that handles recruitment and the practical support systems that allow the intern to participate successfully.
Several compliance and administrative steps are explicitly required. Before the intern can report to the internship site, GYF must obtain prior written confirmation (by email or hardcopy) from the NPS Washington Support Office (WASO) Contracting Officer or an officially designated representative confirming that the task agreement has been fully executed. During the internship, GYF must also confirm and track the intern's work hours using a Public Land Corps Work Hours Verification Form, and must provide the intern with a hardcopy of the final verified form at the end of the project, ensuring proper documentation of service.
The internship itself is defined as a 70-calendar-day appointment, described as 10 weeks, consistent with the project proposal submitted to CRDIP. Only one intern is to be hired under this action, and the notice indicates a single expected award. The total funding amount is fixed at $3,500, which is also both the award ceiling and award floor, and there is no cost sharing or matching requirement.
Timing details show the opportunity was posted and created on April 10, 2013, with an original and current closing date of April 15, 2013, and it was archived on May 15, 2013. However, the eligibility language makes clear that this is not a typical open grant competition: it states there is no eligibility for this opportunity because it is a notice of intent to award under an existing cooperative agreement with GYF. The practical implication is that other entities were not being solicited to apply for this specific award.
