Opportunity Information: Apply for P17AS00130
The opportunity titled "Practical Methods for Conducting Threat Assessments for Reef Managers at Corales del Rosario y de San Bernardo National Natural Park" (Funding Opportunity Number P17AS00130) is a National Park Service (NPS) funding notice issued by the U.S. Department of the Interior. It falls under the discretionary opportunity category and uses a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument type, with an activity focus on environment and natural resources. The listing references CFDA number 15.945, indicating it is tied to an established federal assistance program area associated with NPS activities.
This announcement is explicitly a Notice of Intent to Award rather than an open solicitation. In practical terms, that means the NPS published it primarily to satisfy public transparency requirements by documenting its plan to fund a specific project through an existing agreement mechanism. The notice states plainly that applications will not be accepted, and it is not a request for applications. Even though an original closing date is shown (March 31, 2017), that date does not function like a standard grant deadline for competitive submissions, because no competition is being conducted under this announcement.
The NPS intended to make one award, with an expected single project supported up to an award ceiling of $27,754. Rather than inviting proposals from the broader public, NPS planned to enter into a task agreement with Pennsylvania State University under the Chesapeake Watershed Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) Master Agreement P16AC00375. This structure is common when an agency has an established master cooperative agreement with a partner institution and then issues specific task agreements for defined scopes of work. The mention of "Eligible Applicants: Others" is essentially moot in this case, because the notice clarifies that the funding action is directed through the CESU mechanism to a named partner rather than being open to outside applicants.
Substantively, the project focus, as stated in the title, is on developing or delivering practical methods for conducting threat assessments for reef managers working in Corales del Rosario y de San Bernardo National Natural Park. While the notice does not provide a detailed scope narrative beyond the title, the framing suggests capacity-building and applied guidance for reef management staff, likely involving structured approaches to identifying, evaluating, and prioritizing threats to coral reef ecosystems in that protected area. Overall, the key takeaway is that this was a small, single-award, non-competitive funding action announced for public notice, implemented through a pre-existing NPS cooperative framework with Pennsylvania State University.Apply for P17AS00130
