Opportunity Summary:

The Vegetation Interns grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number P12AC10548) is a discretionary National Park Service funding action set up as a Task Agreement specifically supporting Joshua Tree National Park. The purpose of the agreement is to fund two vegetation intern positions, aligning with CFDA 15.931, Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations. The listing makes clear that this was not an open, competitive solicitation intended for broad applicant intake; it functions as an administrative award notice for a defined project need at the park.

Financially, the opportunity carried an estimated total funding amount of $56,000, and the award ceiling is also $56,000, indicating the full project budget was expected to be covered under a single award. Only one award was anticipated (Expected Awards: 1), and there was no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning the recipient was not required to contribute additional non-federal funds to receive or carry out the work supported by this agreement.

In terms of eligibility and status, the opportunity was targeted to an "Other" eligibility category, but the accompanying eligibility explanation states that the agreement had already been awarded to SCA (Student Conservation Association). Both the original and current closing date fields reiterate that the agreement has been awarded to SCA, which signals the funding action was effectively closed to new applicants at the time it appeared on the public listing. The posting and creation dates are June 13, 2012, and the archive date is June 14, 2012, reflecting that it was posted briefly, likely for transparency and recordkeeping rather than for soliciting applications.

For administrative questions or issues accessing the announcement, the provided point of contact is Barbara Eschels, Supervisory Contract Specialist, reachable by phone at 702-293-8909. No additional information link was provided in the listing.
