Opportunity Information: Apply for P18AS00644
The National Park Service (NPS), within the U.S. Department of the Interior, issued a Notice of Intent to Award for a project titled "Develop a Historic Resource Study for the Ala Kahakai National Historic Trail." This notice functions as a public announcement that NPS plans to fund specific work through a cooperative agreement, but it is not a competitive grant solicitation and it is not asking for applications from other organizations. In other words, the agency is notifying the public that it intends to move forward with a single, identified partner rather than opening the funding up for full and open competition.
The opportunity is listed as a discretionary funding action and will be implemented through a Cooperative Agreement, which generally signals that NPS expects to remain substantially involved in the project rather than simply issuing funds and stepping back. The planned recipient is the University of Hawaii under Cooperative Agreement P18AC01325, and the work will focus on producing a Historic Resource Study (HRS) for the Ala Kahakai National Historic Trail. A Historic Resource Study is typically a formal research and documentation product used by NPS to compile and analyze the history and significance of resources associated with a park unit or affiliated area. For a national historic trail, that kind of study commonly helps organize existing scholarship and source material, identify historic themes and contexts, and provide a foundation for future management, interpretation, preservation planning, and public education.
Administratively, the funding opportunity is identified as P18AS00644 and is categorized under the Natural Resources funding activity area, with CFDA number 15.945. The eligible applicant type is limited to public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, which aligns with the selected partner being a public university. The notice indicates an expected number of awards of one, reinforcing that this is a single-recipient action rather than a multi-award program.
Financially, the notice lists an award ceiling of $99,394, indicating the maximum anticipated federal amount for this agreement. The opportunity record was created on September 5, 2018. Because the announcement is explicitly "not a request for applications," there is no application deadline or standard closing date for external applicants; the agency is instead documenting its intention to proceed with the University of Hawaii without a competitive process.
In practical terms, the key takeaway is that this is a pre-selected, non-competitive cooperative agreement intended to support NPS planning and stewardship by funding the development of a comprehensive Historic Resource Study for the Ala Kahakai National Historic Trail.Apply for P18AS00644
