Opportunity Information: Apply for NPSNOICHIR1900389
The National Park Service (NPS), within the Department of the Interior, issued a Notice of Intent to Award for a project titled "Interpretation and Environmental Education Internships - 2 interns" under funding opportunity number NPSNOICHIR1900389. The opportunity is listed as a discretionary award using a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument, and it falls under the Natural Resources activity category. The associated CFDA number is 15.931, which is commonly used for NPS-related assistance awards.
This announcement is not a call for proposals and is not open for competitive applications. Instead, it serves as formal public notice that the NPS intends to make a single award (expected awards: 1) through a task agreement to the Student Conservation Association (SCA). The task agreement will be issued under an existing cooperative agreement (P15AC00031), meaning the relationship, terms, and overarching framework were previously established, and this action is a continuation or extension of work within that pre-awarded partnership structure.
The project’s purpose, as indicated by the title, is to support interpretation and environmental education capacity by placing two interns. In NPS terms, "interpretation" typically refers to visitor-facing educational and communication services such as guided programs, talks, informal visitor contact, and creation of educational materials that help the public understand park resources and stewardship values. "Environmental education" generally emphasizes structured learning experiences, often oriented toward school groups, youth programs, or community audiences, with a focus on ecological literacy and conservation practices. While the notice does not provide a detailed scope of work, the internship framing strongly implies the award supports staffing, training, and deployment of two intern positions to carry out these public education and engagement functions.
The award includes an identified maximum federal funding level (award ceiling) of $37,276. The posting shows key dates: it was created on May 6, 2019, with an original closing date of May 16, 2019. In this context, the "closing date" functions more as an administrative timeline for the notice rather than an application deadline, since the announcement explicitly states it is not requesting applications.
Eligibility information is included in the record, listing nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education). However, because this is a notice tied to a specific intended recipient under an existing cooperative agreement, that eligibility statement does not translate into an opportunity for other organizations to apply. Practically, the notice communicates that the NPS is proceeding with a directed award to SCA to support two interpretation and environmental education internships, up to the stated ceiling, under the cooperative agreement mechanism already in place.Apply for NPSNOICHIR1900389
