Opportunity Information: Apply for NPS 18 NERO 0179
The National Coal Heritage Area grant notice (Funding Opportunity Number NPS 18 NERO 0179) is a National Park Service (NPS), U.S. Department of the Interior announcement categorized as a discretionary cooperative agreement focused on regional development (CFDA 15.939). It was published on August 30, 2018, with an original closing date of September 8, 2018. The notice lists an anticipated single award, with a maximum award amount (ceiling) of $327,720.
This posting is not an open call for proposals and is not inviting new applications from the public. Instead, it serves as a public notice that the NPS intends to make a task agreement award under an existing master cooperative agreement that has already been competed, or under a master agreement that was justified as a single-source action. In practice, that means the recipient is expected to be an organization already positioned within that pre-established agreement framework, rather than a new applicant responding to this announcement.
Eligibility is broadly labeled as "Others" in the standard field, with the typical implication that the actual eligible party or parties are defined in supplementary eligibility language tied to the existing master cooperative agreement. Because the announcement is informational rather than competitive, the key takeaway is that NPS is disclosing its intention to proceed with one cooperative agreement award for work associated with the National Coal Heritage Area, using previously established contracting or assistance arrangements rather than running a new competitive application process.Apply for NPS 18 NERO 0179
