Opportunity Summary:

The "THPO/SHPO Meeting" grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number P16AS00401) is a discretionary funding action from the U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service (NPS). It was posted on August 5, 2016, with an original closing date of August 19, 2016. The funding instrument identified is a cooperative agreement, which generally means the NPS expects to have substantial involvement in carrying out the funded activities rather than simply issuing a pass-through award with minimal federal participation.

This notice is explicitly not a request for applications. Instead, it functions as a public notice that the NPS intends to fund specific project activities without competition. In practical terms, that means the agency had already identified a recipient or a narrow purpose for the funds and was publishing the announcement to document that decision transparently, rather than opening a competitive application process. The listing indicates the program’s connection to natural resources and is associated with CFDA number 15.946.

The opportunity anticipates a single award, with an award ceiling of $39,463. Eligibility is broadly labeled as "Others," with additional eligibility details referenced as being provided elsewhere in the original announcement. The project title, "THPO/SHPO Meeting," indicates the funded activity relates to coordination or convening among Tribal Historic Preservation Officers (THPOs) and State Historic Preservation Officers (SHPOs). While the announcement text provided does not elaborate on agenda or deliverables, meetings under this theme typically support collaboration and communication on historic preservation responsibilities, policy coordination, and alignment of federal, state, and tribal preservation efforts, often in connection with NPS-related programs and broader cultural resource stewardship.
