Opportunity Information: Apply for NPSNOINTIR1701190
The National Park Service (NPS), within the U.S. Department of the Interior, issued a public notice for a discretionary funding action titled "Study, preserve, protect, interpret, and promote the Old Spanish NHT" (Old Spanish National Historic Trail). The opportunity is identified by funding opportunity number NPSNOINTIR1701190 and was posted on July 25, 2017, with an original closing date of August 5, 2017. The listed program area aligns with Natural Resources and is associated with CFDA number 15.935, which is commonly used for NPS assistance programs.
This notice is explicitly not a request for applications. In other words, it is not an open, competitive grant solicitation where interested organizations submit proposals for consideration. Instead, the purpose of the announcement is to inform the public that NPS intends to make an award through a task agreement under an existing master cooperative agreement. That master agreement was either previously competed or supported by a single-source justification, meaning NPS had already selected (or otherwise justified selecting) a partner organization through an earlier process. The announcement functions mainly as a transparency and public awareness step rather than an invitation to apply.
The funding instrument type identified is a cooperative agreement. Cooperative agreements differ from standard grants in that they typically involve substantial involvement by the federal agency in the project, such as collaboration on planning, technical input, coordination, review, or shared implementation responsibilities. The activity described by the title focuses on the core purposes of a National Historic Trail: researching and documenting the trail (study), safeguarding its resources and setting (preserve and protect), explaining its significance to the public (interpret), and increasing awareness and engagement (promote). While the notice does not provide project-specific deliverables or a work plan, the title indicates support for efforts connected to the Old Spanish National Historic Trail, which may include resource documentation, preservation planning, interpretive products, educational outreach, partnership coordination, or related stewardship activities consistent with NHT goals.
Eligibility, as listed in the opportunity record, is limited to nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education). However, because the announcement is not soliciting applications, this eligibility line should be read as describing the type of partner anticipated or already selected under the existing cooperative framework, rather than opening a window for new applicants to compete.
Finally, the opportunity record indicates an expected number of awards of one, and an award ceiling of 0. An award ceiling of 0 in these postings often signals that a specific maximum amount was not stated in the public notice record, or that the amount is determined within the task agreement rather than through a typical open funding announcement format. Overall, the key takeaway is that this is a notice of intent to award a single cooperative agreement task under an already-established master cooperative agreement, aimed at advancing study, preservation, protection, interpretation, and promotion of the Old Spanish National Historic Trail.Apply for NPSNOINTIR1701190
