Opportunity Summary:
The Youth Projects at Craters of the Moon National Monument opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIP16AC01390) is a Department of the Interior, National Park Service notice connected to youth-focused work at Craters of the Moon National Monument. It is categorized as a discretionary opportunity and uses a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument, with the activity area listed under education. The associated CFDA program number is 15.931, which corresponds to National Park Service assistance programs.
A key point is that this posting is not a standard open grant competition or a typical funding opportunity announcement inviting new applications from the broader public. Instead, it is explicitly described as a Notice of Intent to award a youth task agreement under an existing National Park Service cooperative agreement that had already been competed in the past. In practical terms, that means the NPS is signaling its plan to make a specific award (or issue a task agreement) within an already-established cooperative agreement framework, rather than running a new, fully open solicitation. The notice also indicates that full details were provided in an attached document rather than in the short public synopsis.
The eligibility category listed for the opportunity is nonprofits with IRS 501(c)(3) status, excluding institutions of higher education. Even though that eligibility description appears in the record, the notice-of-intent language strongly suggests that the actual recipient is expected to come from the pool of organizations already operating under the previously competed cooperative agreement, with the task agreement being issued as part of that existing relationship.
In terms of scale, the award ceiling is listed as $37,100, and the expected number of awards is one, reinforcing that this is a single, specific planned action rather than a multi-award competitive program. The creation date is September 19, 2016, and the original closing date is September 23, 2016, which indicates a very short public posting window consistent with notices that are primarily informational and tied to a pre-identified award pathway.
Overall, this record describes a National Park Service intent to support a youth-related project at Craters of the Moon National Monument through a task agreement under an already-competed cooperative agreement, with up to $37,100 available and only one anticipated award, falling under NPS education-related assistance (CFDA 15.931).
