Opportunity Information: Apply for NPS 18 NERO 0038
The Natural and Cultural Resources Division Interns opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS 18 NERO 0038) is a discretionary National Park Service funding action under the U.S. Department of the Interior, structured as a cooperative agreement. It falls under the funding activity category of Employment, Labor and Training and is associated with CFDA number 15.931. The posting was created on May 15, 2018, with an original closing date of May 24, 2018, and it indicates an expected total of one award with an award ceiling of $35,490.
The most important point in the description is that this notice is not a request for applications. Instead, it serves as a public notice that the National Park Service intends to award financial assistance for specific project activities without competition. In practical terms, that means the agency is signaling an intent to make a sole-source (non-competitive) cooperative agreement award, typically to a pre-identified partner, rather than running an open competition where multiple applicants submit proposals.
Eligibility is listed broadly as "Others," with a note to consult the additional eligibility information in the full announcement for clarification. However, because the notice explicitly states it is not soliciting applications and intends to award without competition, the eligibility language functions more as a formal classification than an invitation for the public to apply. Overall, the opportunity is best understood as a transparency posting: it documents the agency's planned cooperative agreement to support intern-related work connected to natural and cultural resources functions, identifies the anticipated funding amount and administrative details, and fulfills public notice requirements for a non-competitive federal financial assistance award.Apply for NPS 18 NERO 0038
