Opportunity Information: Apply for P17AS00430
The SCA Community Crews at Mount Rainier National Park opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number P17AS00430) is a National Park Service notice of intent to fund a specific project rather than an open call for proposals. In other words, it is not a request for applications and is mainly being published to provide public notice that the Department of the Interior, National Park Service plans to make an award to support identified project activities at Mount Rainier National Park. Anyone looking at this listing should understand that the agency is signaling its planned funding action, not soliciting competing applications.
The anticipated award is structured as a discretionary cooperative agreement, which generally means the National Park Service expects to have substantial involvement in the project activities in partnership with the recipient rather than simply issuing a hands-off grant. The activity category is listed under Employment, Labor and Training (CFDA 15.931), indicating the funded work is tied to workforce development and crew-based service or training experiences, consistent with community crew programs commonly associated with conservation service organizations.
Eligibility is limited to nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education). The funding profile indicates one expected award with an award ceiling of $47,819. The announcement was created on June 22, 2017, with an original closing date of July 2, 2017, which in the context of a notice of intent typically functions more as an administrative posting window than a true application deadline.
Overall, this posting serves as a formal transparency step by the National Park Service: it tells the public that the agency intends to fund a single cooperative agreement for SCA community crew-related activities at Mount Rainier National Park, within the stated maximum amount, under the specified federal assistance listing and eligibility constraints, with additional details referenced as being available in the supporting Notice of Intent documentation.Apply for P17AS00430
