Opportunity Information: Apply for P18AS00322

The funding opportunity titled "NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD" (Funding Opportunity Number P18AS00322) is a National Park Service announcement from the U.S. Department of the Interior stating an intent to make an award, rather than inviting the public to apply. It is explicitly described as not being a request for applications, meaning there is no open competition or application submission process associated with this posting. The notice functions more like a formal public disclosure that the agency plans to fund a specific project or recipient under its discretionary funding authority.

The award is planned as a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates substantial involvement by the National Park Service in carrying out the project compared to a standard grant. The activity category is listed as "Science and Technology and other Research and Development," suggesting the funded work is expected to support research-oriented or technical activities aligned with National Park Service priorities. The associated CFDA (Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance) number is 15.945, which historically corresponds to National Park Service assistance programs.

Eligibility is limited to public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, indicating the intended recipient type is a public university or similar state-controlled academic institution. The notice lists an expected total of one award, with an award ceiling of $35,000, implying the agency anticipates issuing a single cooperative agreement up to that maximum amount rather than multiple awards or a larger pool of funding.

The opportunity record shows a creation date of June 13, 2018, and the "closing date" field reiterates that this is a notice of intent to award and not an application opportunity. In practical terms, this posting is informational: organizations interested in National Park Service funding should not treat it as an open solicitation, and there is no indicated pathway to apply under this announcement.

  • The Department of the Interior, National Park Service in the science and technology and other research and development sector is offering a public funding opportunity titled "NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD" and is now available to receive applicants.
