Opportunity Information: Apply for NPS 17 NERO 0158
The grant opportunity titled "Appalachian Trail: FY16 ATC Rec Fee Trail Maintenance" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS 17 NERO 0158) is a National Park Service (NPS) discretionary funding action under the U.S. Department of the Interior. It is tied to the environmental funding activity category and is listed under CFDA number 15.935. The funding instrument identified for this action is a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates a project where the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement in the work being carried out, rather than simply issuing a standard grant with minimal federal participation.
The key point of the notice is that it is not an open solicitation and not a request for applications. Instead, it serves as a public notice that the National Park Service intends to make a task agreement award under a master cooperative agreement that was already competed previously or was justified as a single-source arrangement. In practical terms, this means the NPS is signaling its intent to fund a specific partner under an existing umbrella agreement, rather than inviting new applicants to compete for the funds through a new competitive process.
The project focus, as reflected in the title, is Appalachian Trail recreation fee-supported trail maintenance work associated with FY16 activities, and the "ATC" reference points to the Appalachian Trail Conservancy as the likely partner organization involved in carrying out maintenance tasks. The notice anticipates a single award, with an award ceiling of $29,600, indicating a relatively small, targeted maintenance effort rather than a large multi-year program. The posting was created on August 22, 2017, with an original closing date of August 31, 2017, which in this context functions more as an administrative window for public notice rather than a deadline for submitting applications, since applications are not being accepted.
Eligibility is broadly labeled as "Others" with a prompt to consult additional eligibility information, but given the stated intent to issue a task agreement under an already-established cooperative framework, eligibility details are largely academic for the public because the award is effectively pre-identified through the existing master cooperative agreement mechanism. Overall, the notice documents the NPS intent to proceed with a specific cooperative agreement task award for Appalachian Trail maintenance funded through recreation fee resources, with one expected recipient and a capped funding amount.Apply for NPS 17 NERO 0158
