Opportunity Information: Apply for NPS 18 NERO 0159
The National Park Service (NPS) has posted a public notice describing its intent to award financial assistance for a project titled "Provide Technical Assistance for Invasive Species Assessment." This notice is informational only and is explicitly not a request for applications, meaning the NPS is not soliciting proposals through a competitive open call under this posting. Instead, it serves to formally announce that the agency plans to move forward with a financial assistance award to support specific project activities related to invasive species assessment and associated technical support.
The opportunity is listed as a discretionary award and will be issued as a cooperative agreement, which typically implies substantial involvement by the federal agency during the project. In practice, that often means NPS staff may coordinate closely with the recipient on technical decisions, work planning, data standards, reporting expectations, and alignment with park management needs. The funding activity category is identified as "Employment, Labor and Training," which suggests the work may include hands-on field or technical support that involves staffing, training, or workforce capacity elements tied to invasive species assessment efforts.
The funding opportunity number is NPS 18 NERO 0159, and it is associated with CFDA number 15.945, a catalog listing that historically corresponds to NPS financial assistance programs. The eligible applicant category is listed as "Others," which is a broad designation that can include a range of non-federal entities depending on the specific circumstances and the intended recipient for this planned award. The posting indicates an award ceiling of $32,670, signaling that the planned funding amount is relatively small and likely targeted toward a discrete set of technical assistance tasks (for example, survey support, assessment methodology assistance, data compilation, mapping support, or other limited-scope deliverables tied to invasive species assessment).
Key dates included in the record show a creation date of August 27, 2018, with an original closing date of September 5, 2018. In the context of an intent-to-award notice that is not accepting applications, the "closing date" functions more as an administrative timeline marker for the notice period rather than a deadline for proposal submission. The posting also lists "Expected Awards" without a number provided, which is consistent with notices that are not structured as competitive solicitations and may be associated with a single intended award.
Overall, the announcement communicates that NPS intends to financially support technical assistance work focused on invasive species assessment through a cooperative agreement, up to $32,670, under a discretionary assistance mechanism. Because it is not a solicitation, interested parties generally would not submit an application in response to this posting; instead, it primarily serves as a transparency measure notifying the public of the agency's planned award action and the general scope and administrative details of the project.Apply for NPS 18 NERO 0159
