Opportunity Information: Apply for NPSNOINTIR1701195
This funding notice comes from the U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service (NPS) and relates to work supporting the El Camino Real de los Tejas National Historic Trail (NHT). The stated purpose is to protect the trail's historic integrity, highlight and strengthen its role in tourism and economic development along the route, and educate the public about the trail's resources and the opportunities it provides. In practical terms, the project focus is on preservation and stewardship of historically significant trail resources, interpretive and educational efforts that help people understand the trail and its history, and outreach or coordination activities that connect communities and partners along the corridor in ways that can also support local tourism economies.
The opportunity is categorized as a discretionary award and uses a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument. A cooperative agreement typically indicates that NPS expects to be substantially involved in the project beyond simply providing funds, such as collaborating on planning, technical guidance, interpretation standards, or partner coordination. The funding activity category is listed as natural resources, and the CFDA number provided is 15.935, which corresponds to NPS-related assistance listings used for federal financial assistance tracking and reporting.
A key point of this announcement is that it is not an open call for applications. The notice explicitly states, in all caps, that it is not a request for applications and is being issued only to provide public notice of NPS's intent to make an award through an existing arrangement. Specifically, NPS intends to award a task agreement under a master cooperative agreement that was either previously competed or justified as a single-source arrangement. That means the agency is not soliciting new proposals from the general public for this particular action; rather, it is signaling that the work will be assigned under an already-established umbrella agreement with a partner organization.
Eligibility is described as limited to nonprofits with IRS 501(c)(3) status, excluding institutions of higher education. The listing shows an expected number of awards of one, reinforcing that this is a single anticipated award action rather than a competitive multi-award opportunity. The award ceiling is listed as 0, which usually indicates that the notice is not providing a maximum dollar amount in this public posting or that the amount may be determined within the existing cooperative agreement framework rather than through a standard competitive announcement that specifies a cap.
Administrative details included in the source data are the funding opportunity number (NPSNOINTIR1701195), the creation date of July 25, 2017, and an original closing date of August 5, 2017. Even though a closing date is shown, the substance of the notice makes clear that the posting functions as a transparency notice about NPS's intention to proceed with a task agreement under an existing master cooperative agreement, not as a competitive application window where new applicants would submit proposals for consideration.Apply for NPSNOINTIR1701195
