Opportunity Information: Apply for NPS NOIP17AC00148
The National Park Service-Archeological Site Preservation opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS-NOIP17AC00148) is a National Park Service notice of intent to award, meaning it is not an open call for applications and not a request for proposals. Its purpose is simply to give the public formal notice that the National Park Service (NPS), within the U.S. Department of the Interior, plans to fund a specific task agreement under an existing master agreement framework. In other words, the funding decision is tied to a pre-established cooperative relationship rather than a new competitive grant round.
The planned recipient is Conservation Legacy, a nonprofit organization eligible under the general category of 501(c)(3) entities (other than institutions of higher education). The total anticipated federal award amount is $74,400, with no cost share required. The award would be made as a cooperative agreement (instrument listed as Cooperative Agreement P17AC00148), which signals that NPS expects to be substantially involved in carrying out the project rather than simply providing funds and stepping back. The anticipated period of performance runs through September 30, 2017, and the anticipated agreement length is also through September 30, 2017, indicating a short, time-bound project designed to be completed within that federal fiscal year window. The opportunity is associated with CFDA 15.931, Youth Conservation Activities, and is categorized under natural resources.
Programmatically, the project centers on archeological site preservation while using the work as a platform for youth engagement and workforce development. Conservation Legacy is expected to collaborate with NPS to involve young adults in hands-on conservation activities that build environmental awareness, expose participants to natural area restoration techniques, encourage healthy lifestyle habits through field-based work, and connect them with conservation professionals. A key stated outcome is to help create pathways into conservation careers, positioning participants as future stewards and potential future NPS leaders. The preservation work is therefore not only about protecting archeological resources, but also about using that mission as a training and development environment for emerging workers.
NPS describes substantial involvement as necessary for successful completion of the objectives. This includes NPS staff providing support and actively helping create work, education, and training opportunities for young adults through collaborative participation in preservation activities. The cooperative agreement structure reinforces that NPS will help guide or coordinate the effort rather than treating it as a fully independent, grantee-driven project.
The notice also explains why NPS did not pursue full and open competition. Conservation Legacy is part of the established 21st Century Conservation Corps Program - Youth Engagement and Development and had already been awarded a cooperative agreement (P15AC00024) that allows it to undertake specific tasks under that broader partnership. NPS states that three members of the 21st Century Conservation Corps Program were considered for this particular award, and Conservation Legacy was selected based on the experience of its crews and their availability to work in remote areas. The named point of contact for the award is Tina Holland, Agreements Officer. The posting dates (creation date January 24, 2017, with an original closing date of February 2, 2017) function more as an administrative notice period than an application window, since no applications were being solicited.Apply for NPS NOIP17AC00148
