Opportunity Information: Apply for NPS 17 NERO 0215
The Expanding Education Innovation opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS 17 NERO 0215) is a National Park Service announcement issued by the U.S. Department of the Interior to give the public notice of the agency's intent to make an award, rather than to solicit new proposals. In other words, it is not a competitive call for applications and it is not inviting organizations to submit new project ideas for consideration under this notice. Instead, the National Park Service indicates it plans to issue a task agreement under an existing master cooperative agreement that was either previously competed or was established through a single-source justification.
The funding mechanism identified is a cooperative agreement, which typically means the agency expects to have substantial involvement in the work being performed, such as collaborating on project design, participating in implementation, or providing technical direction. The activity category is education, and the associated CFDA (Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance) number listed is 15.954, which is tied to National Park Service assistance programs. The opportunity is categorized as discretionary, signaling that the award is made at the agency's discretion within its programmatic authority rather than through a formula distribution.
In terms of scale and expected outcome, the announcement lists an award ceiling of $80,000 and anticipates one award. That combination usually indicates a single, defined project scope that the agency already intends to pursue with a specific partner or set of partners under the pre-existing cooperative framework. The eligible applicants field is broadly labeled as "Others" with a note to consult additional eligibility language, but given the nature of the notice, the practical implication is that eligibility is not the main issue because the agency is not seeking open submissions through this posting.
The timing details reinforce that this is a notice rather than an application opportunity. The posting was created on September 8, 2017, with an original closing date of September 17, 2017, which functions more like the end of the public notice period than a deadline for applicants to submit materials. Overall, the key takeaway is that this announcement is primarily informational: it signals the National Park Service's plan to proceed with a single task agreement for an education-focused effort called Expanding Education Innovation under an already established cooperative agreement structure, with up to $80,000 available and one award expected.Apply for NPS 17 NERO 0215
