Opportunity Summary:

The "Tule Lake Unit General Management Plan" notice is a National Park Service (NPS) announcement from the U.S. Department of the Interior stating the agency's intent to make a single award through a cooperative agreement, but it is not an open grant competition and it is not asking the public to submit applications. Instead, the purpose of the posting is to give public notice that NPS plans to fund specific project activities without full and open competition, using an existing cooperative agreement structure and a defined task agreement.

The planned award is tied to Task Agreement P13AC001355 under Cooperative Agreement P13AC01348, and the intended partner organization is The Wing Luke Museum of the Pacific Asian American Experience. The project itself is described as work associated with a General Management Plan (GMP) for the Tule Lake Unit. In NPS terms, a GMP is the foundational planning document that sets long-term direction for how a park unit or site will be managed, including broad goals for resource protection, visitor experience, interpretation and education, and operational needs. In this case, the funding is categorized under Natural Resources, and it falls within the NPS program area listed as "National Park Service Conservation, Protection, Outreach, and Education" (CFDA 15.954), which signals that the effort is expected to support both stewardship and public-facing understanding of the site's significance.

Administratively, the opportunity is labeled as discretionary and uses the "Cooperative Agreement" funding instrument, meaning NPS anticipates substantial involvement in the work rather than simply issuing a pass-through grant. The notice lists an expected number of awards of 1 and an estimated total funding amount of $49,849. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement. The listing shows award floor and ceiling values as $0, which is common in notices that are not accepting applications and are primarily posted for transparency rather than to define a competitive range.

Eligibility language appears in the record (nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status, other than institutions of higher education), but because this is a notice of intent to award without competition, that eligibility category is informational and does not mean additional applicants can apply for this specific funding action. The posting dates indicate it was posted and created on September 13, 2013, with an archive date of September 20, 2013. Both the original and current closing dates explicitly state that this is not a request for applications, reinforcing that there is no submission window and no competitive review process associated with this announcement.

For anyone needing the official announcement or having trouble accessing it online, the notice provides a grants.gov link for additional information and a point of contact at NPS: Lilette Baltodano, Financial Agreements Officer, reachable at 415-623-2251 and lilettebaltodano@nps.gov.
