Opportunity Information: Apply for P17AS00451
The grant opportunity titled "National Park Service- Sustainable Operations and Facility Adaption 2017-2018" (Funding Opportunity Number P17AS00451) is a discretionary funding action issued by the Department of the Interior, National Park Service. It was published on June 28, 2017, and is categorized under education, science and technology, and other research and development activities. The assistance listing (CFDA) number associated with it is 15.945, which signals it falls within an established federal assistance program used by NPS for related projects.
A key point is that this notice is not a request for applications. In other words, it is not an open, competitive solicitation where multiple applicants submit proposals for review. Instead, the purpose of the announcement is simply to provide public notice that NPS intends to fund specific project activities without competition. That language typically indicates a pre-identified recipient or a justified single-source award approach, where NPS has determined the work needs to be carried out through a particular partner rather than through a competitive process.
The funding instrument for this opportunity is a cooperative agreement. Compared with a standard grant, a cooperative agreement generally implies substantial involvement by the federal agency during the project. That can include active collaboration, technical participation, or coordinated decision-making between NPS and the recipient as the work progresses. The title suggests the work relates to improving sustainability in NPS operations and adapting facilities, which can include efforts like resource efficiency planning, sustainable practices implementation, facility performance improvements, or related applied research and education activities that support park operations.
Eligibility is limited to public and state-controlled institutions of higher education. That means the intended recipient class is typically state universities, public colleges, or similar publicly governed higher-education entities. While the notice does not list the specific institution in the provided text, the eligibility restriction aligns with NPS partnering with universities for technical assistance, research support, student or faculty engagement, training, and development of tools or methods that can be used across park units.
The anticipated award structure is straightforward: NPS expects to make one award, with an award ceiling of $50,000. With only one expected award and a relatively modest ceiling, this appears designed to support a defined set of activities over the 2017-2018 period rather than a large multi-recipient program. Because it is not competitive and has no application closing date, there is no application window or submission process for outside parties; the posting functions as a transparency measure to document NPS intent to make the award under the cited authority and program area.Apply for P17AS00451
