Opportunity Information: Apply for NPS 20 REG1 0006
The National Park Service (NPS), within the Department of the Interior, issued a public notice titled "Implement Chesapeake Gateways Network Projects in Annapolis" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS 20 REG1 0006) to announce its intent to make a financial assistance award through a cooperative agreement. This is not a request for applications and was not set up as an open, competitive solicitation. Instead, the notice serves mainly as a transparency step letting the public know that NPS plans to move forward with a specific assistance arrangement under Cooperative Agreement P20AC00412.
The central purpose of Cooperative Agreement P20AC00412 is to support projects and programs that strengthen Annapolis as a hub community within the Chesapeake Bay Gateways Network. The work is meant to help people better understand and engage with Annapolis's Chesapeake maritime heritage, while also improving the ways residents and visitors connect to the citys authentic cultural and natural resources and to the Chesapeake Bay itself. A major theme of the effort is expanding public access, not only in a physical sense (helping people reach places and resources) but also in an interpretive sense (helping people learn what they are seeing and why it matters). Alongside access and interpretation, the agreement emphasizes building stewardship, encouraging long-term care and responsible use of these resources by local residents, visitors, community organizations, and the City of Annapolis.
Because the award is structured as a cooperative agreement, NPS expects to have substantial involvement in guiding or partnering on the supported activities, rather than simply issuing a grant and stepping back. The notice explains that detailed statements of work will not be fully spelled out at the top level of the agreement. Instead, they will be developed and funded through task agreements. In practical terms, that means the overall agreement establishes the goals and framework, and specific deliverables, scopes, and budgets are set later on a task-by-task basis as projects are defined, prioritized, and funded in alignment with the agreements public purpose and objectives.
The opportunity is categorized as discretionary financial assistance, with an environment-related funding activity classification, and it is associated with CFDA number 15.930. The notice indicates an expected number of awards of one, reinforcing that this is an intent-to-award announcement tied to a single planned cooperative agreement rather than a broad competition. The posted award ceiling is listed as 0, which typically signals that the public notice itself does not specify a maximum funding level at this stage, especially since funding and scopes are expected to be established later at the task agreement level.
Eligibility is listed as nonprofits that do not have 501(c)(3) status with the IRS (other than institutions of higher education). However, since the notice explicitly states it is not a request for applications and is announcing NPSs intention to award under a particular cooperative agreement number, the eligibility field should be read as general metadata rather than an invitation for new applicants to apply during the posted window. The announcement was created on May 11, 2020, with an original closing date of May 21, 2020, which in this context functions more like a posting period for the public notice than a standard application deadline.Apply for NPS 20 REG1 0006
