Communicating Monitoring Results | P18AS00342

Opportunity Information: Apply for P18AS00342

The grant opportunity titled "Communicating Monitoring Results" (Funding Opportunity Number P18AS00342) is a National Park Service announcement posted primarily as a public notice rather than an open call for proposals. It states the agency's intent to award financial assistance through a cooperative agreement, and it makes clear that the award will be issued without competition. In other words, this is not a typical opportunity where multiple applicants submit proposals for review; instead, it documents that the National Park Service plans to move forward with a specific partner under an existing agreement framework.

The planned recipient identified in the notice is the Northern Rockies Conservation Cooperative, and the announcement references a specific agreement number, CA# P17AC00233. The description is brief and repeats the same message: the purpose of the posting is to notify the public that the agency will provide funding noncompetitively under that referenced cooperative agreement. The funding instrument type is explicitly listed as a Cooperative Agreement, which usually indicates that the National Park Service expects to have substantial involvement in the project activities compared to a standard grant (for example, coordination, collaboration on deliverables, or shared responsibilities during the period of performance).

From the details provided, the opportunity is categorized under "Other" for both the opportunity category and activity category, and it is associated with CFDA number 15.945 (a National Park Service financial assistance listing). The eligible applicants field is listed as "Others," but because the award is explicitly noncompetitive and tied to an existing cooperative agreement with a named organization, the practical eligibility is effectively limited to that identified partner for this particular action.

In terms of funding parameters, the notice lists an award ceiling of 1, which, as written, suggests either a placeholder value or a minimal ceiling entry rather than a meaningful dollar cap. The posting also indicates "ExpectedAwards" but does not provide a numeric value, though the nature of the announcement implies a single award aligned with the referenced agreement. Key dates included are a creation date of 2018-06-19 and an original closing date of 2018-06-29, which typically function as the public posting window rather than a true application deadline in a noncompetitive award notice.

Overall, the posting serves as a transparency measure: it informs the public that the National Park Service intends to fund a specific project related to communicating monitoring results, through a cooperative agreement, with the Northern Rockies Conservation Cooperative, and that the award will be made without an open competition.
