Opportunity Information: Apply for P19AS00177
The Watershed Education for Teachers (WET) grant opportunity, titled "Watershed Education for Teachers (WET); Lake Mead National Recreatio Area" (Funding Opportunity Number P19AS00177), is a National Park Service funding notice under the U.S. Department of the Interior. It is structured as a discretionary cooperative agreement within the natural resources funding activity area (CFDA 15.954). The announcement was created on June 11, 2019, and carries an award ceiling of $40,000. Although it appears in the format of a funding opportunity listing, the agency makes it explicit that this is a Notice of Intent to Award and not an open solicitation or request for applications; in other words, it is published to inform the public that the National Park Service intends to fund a specific project under an existing cooperative agreement arrangement with OLVF, rather than compete the funding.
The core purpose of the project is educator professional development focused on watershed science and the Colorado River system, using established, curriculum-based programs. Specifically, the cooperative agreement supports delivery of Watershed Education for Teachers (WET) and the "Discover a Watershed: The Colorado River" professional development curriculum. The project is designed to reach approximately 150 teachers through at least six workshops. By training teachers directly, the program aims to expand classroom impact beyond the workshop participants, improving how watershed concepts are taught and understood by students as those teachers integrate the materials into their instruction.
Geographically and programmatically, the work is centered on Clark County, Nevada, which the notice highlights as the largest county in the state. The intended outcome is a deeper, more accurate understanding of the Colorado River watershed among educators and, by extension, their students in the county. A second major emphasis is instructional alignment: the workshops are intended to equip educators with additional teaching strategies that support Clark County School District implementation of the Next Generation Science Standards. In practical terms, that means the training is not just about content knowledge (watersheds, river systems, water resources), but also about classroom-ready methods and approaches that fit current science education expectations and standards-based instruction.
Eligibility information is included in the posting, listing "Nonprofits that do not have a 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, other than institutions of higher education" as eligible applicants. However, since this is not an open competition and no applications are being solicited, that eligibility category functions more as a formal classification within the federal posting system than a call for new applicants. The listing also shows "Expected Awards: 0," which aligns with the notice-of-intent framing rather than a competitive grant cycle with multiple awards.Apply for P19AS00177
