Opportunity Information: Apply for NPS 17 NERO 0011
This notice is a National Park Service (NPS) "Notice of Intent to Award" for a project called the Trail Stewards Program supporting the Star-Spangled Banner National Historic Trail. It is being issued by the U.S. Department of the Interior to publicly announce that NPS plans to fund specific project activities through a cooperative agreement, and that it intends to do so without full and open competition. In practical terms, it is not inviting the public to apply, and it should not be read as a standard grant solicitation. Instead, it is essentially a transparency step that lets the public know NPS expects to make a single award to carry out trail stewardship-related work connected to this national historic trail.
The opportunity is listed as a discretionary funding action using a cooperative agreement, which typically means NPS anticipates having substantial involvement in the project as it is carried out (for example, coordination, technical direction, or shared responsibilities), rather than simply providing funds and stepping back. The funding activity category is labeled as "Other," indicating the work does not fall neatly into common grant categories and that further clarification would normally be in the full notice or associated documentation.
Key administrative details in the listing include the funding opportunity number NPS 17 NERO 0011 and the CFDA number 15.931, which corresponds to National Park Service financial assistance programs. The posting shows an award ceiling of $29,744 and an expectation of one award, reinforcing that this is a single, targeted cooperative agreement rather than a competitive, multi-award grant cycle. The notice was created on December 27, 2016, with an original closing date of January 5, 2017, which in this context functions more like an administrative posting window than an application deadline, since the announcement explicitly states it is not a request for applications.
Eligibility is broadly labeled as "Others," with the note that additional eligibility information would be provided elsewhere (typically in the linked supporting or related documents). Because the announcement is specifically a notice of intent to award without competition, the "eligible applicants" field is less about inviting applicants and more about categorizing the type of organization involved in the intended award. Anyone looking for the detailed scope of work, the justification for limited or noncompetitive award, or the identity/role of the intended recipient would normally need to consult the notice attachments referenced by the listing (the "Related Documents" link).
Overall, the listing is best understood as a public-facing procedural notice: NPS is signaling it intends to fund and partner on a defined set of Trail Stewards Program activities tied to the Star-Spangled Banner National Historic Trail, via one cooperative agreement capped at $29,744, and it is not opening the project up for competitive applications through Grants.gov.Apply for NPS 17 NERO 0011
