Opportunity Information: Apply for NPSNOIMAPR1801425
The grant opportunity titled "SCA Interpretive Intern, Los Alamos Unit" (Funding Opportunity Number NPSNOIMAPR1801425) is a National Park Service discretionary funding action under the U.S. Department of the Interior. It is structured as a cooperative agreement and is associated with the Natural Resources funding activity category (CFDA 15.931). The announcement was created on September 21, 2018, with an original closing date of September 24, 2018, reflecting a very short public posting window that is typical for notices that are administrative in nature rather than competitive solicitations.
This posting is explicitly labeled as a "Notice of Intent to Award," meaning it is not an open call for proposals and not a request for applications. Instead of seeking new applicants, the National Park Service is indicating its intent to issue funding to a specific organization: the Student Conservation Association (SCA). The mechanism for doing so is a task agreement under a previously awarded cooperative agreement (P15AC00031). In practical terms, this means the NPS already has an overarching cooperative agreement in place with SCA, and this particular award is being executed as a defined task or project under that existing agreement rather than through a new competitive process.
The eligible applicant type listed is "Nonprofits having a 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, other than institutions of higher education," which aligns with SCA's nonprofit status. Even though eligibility language is included, the notice makes clear that the expected number of awards is one (1), reinforcing that this is a directed award rather than a competition among multiple eligible nonprofits.
Financially, the opportunity lists an award ceiling of $39,972, which indicates the maximum anticipated federal funding amount for this specific task agreement. The title suggests the funded work centers on supporting an interpretive intern position at the Los Alamos Unit, which typically involves public-facing interpretation and education activities such as visitor engagement, program delivery, outreach, and assisting park staff with interpretive or educational services connected to natural and cultural resources. The announcement itself does not provide a detailed scope of work beyond the intern-focused title, but the combination of "Interpretive Intern" and the NPS Natural Resources activity category strongly signals a project designed to support park operations and visitor services through a partner-hosted internship placement.
Overall, this opportunity is best understood as a formal public notice that the National Park Service plans to fund SCA for a specific intern-related project at the Los Alamos Unit under an already-existing cooperative agreement, with up to $39,972 in federal support and no pathway for other organizations to apply.Apply for NPSNOIMAPR1801425
