Opportunity Information: Apply for P18AS00167
The grant opportunity titled "Develop Museum Guidance for visitor and staff" (Funding Opportunity Number P18AS00167) is a National Park Service notice, issued by the Department of the Interior, that serves strictly as a public announcement of an intended award rather than an open competition. In other words, it is not a call for proposals and it is not inviting new applications from the public. The notice functions as formal transparency that the agency plans to provide financial assistance to a specific partner, Groundwork USA, through a task agreement issued under an existing cooperative agreement identified as CA#P17AC00528.
The opportunity is categorized under "Other" for both the opportunity category and the funding activity category, indicating that it does not fit neatly into standard program labels and that the detailed explanation would normally be referenced in an accompanying text field. The funding instrument type is a cooperative agreement, which typically means the National Park Service expects to have substantial involvement in the work as it is carried out, such as collaborating on the scope, reviewing deliverables, or coordinating implementation steps, rather than simply providing funds with minimal interaction.
From the details provided, the assistance is associated with CFDA number 15.946 (a federal assistance listing tied to National Park Service partnership and support activities). The listing shows an expected number of awards of one, reinforcing that this is a single, directed award rather than a competitive grant. The "award ceiling" is listed as 1, which appears to be a placeholder or administrative entry rather than a meaningful maximum dollar amount; the notice does not provide a specific funding amount in the text shared.
Timing information is included for the public record: the notice was created on April 18, 2018, with an original closing date of April 28, 2018. In this context, the closing date is not a deadline for applicants, since applications are not being accepted; it is more likely the date the notice period ends or the point at which the award action can proceed after public posting requirements are met.
Overall, the substance of the announcement is straightforward: the National Park Service is documenting its intent to fund Groundwork USA to develop museum guidance intended for visitors and staff, and it is doing so through a task agreement under an existing cooperative agreement rather than through a new open solicitation.Apply for P18AS00167
