Opportunity Information: Apply for NPSNOIGLCA1701079
The National Park Service (NPS), within the U.S. Department of the Interior, issued a public Notice of Intent to Award for a funding opportunity titled "Connecting Youth to Parks through Conservation" (Funding Opportunity Number NPSNOIGLCA1701079). The key point of this notice is that it is not an open call for proposals and not a request for applications. Instead, it serves as formal public notification that NPS intends to make a single, non-competitive award through a task agreement under a cooperative agreement structure. In other words, the agency is signaling that it already plans to fund a specific project and partner rather than selecting from competing applicants.
The opportunity is categorized as discretionary funding and is tied to a Natural Resources funding activity area, with CFDA number 15.931. The instrument type listed is a Cooperative Agreement, which typically indicates a relationship where the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement in the supported work (for example, coordinating activities, providing technical guidance, or collaborating on project implementation), rather than simply issuing a grant with minimal federal participation.
Eligibility is noted as limited to nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education). Even though eligibility is described, the notice is still explicitly non-competitive, meaning that eligible organizations generally should not interpret this posting as an invitation to submit an application package. The announcement is mainly about transparency and compliance with public notice expectations for federal financial assistance actions.
The posting was created on July 12, 2017, with an original closing date of July 22, 2017. The listing shows an expected number of awards of one, reinforcing that the agency anticipates making a single award rather than multiple awards. The award ceiling is listed as 0, which typically signals that a specific maximum federal funding amount was not provided in the public synopsis (or is managed through internal documentation rather than advertised as a competitive cap). Overall, the notice communicates NPS intent to proceed with a single, predetermined conservation-related youth engagement project designed to connect young people to parks through conservation work, but it does not open a pathway for new applicants to compete for the funding.Apply for NPSNOIGLCA1701079
