Opportunity Information: Apply for P17AS00220
The PLC Fence Maintenance and Brush Clearing Project is a discretionary funding opportunity administered by the U.S. Department of the Interior through the National Park Service (NPS). It is identified by Funding Opportunity Number P17AS00220 and falls under the Natural Resources funding activity category, with CFDA number 15.931. The project, as described in the listing, focuses on practical on-the-ground work: maintaining fences and clearing brush. While the public summary does not provide site-specific details, the title indicates routine resource management and maintenance activities that are commonly used to protect park resources, maintain boundaries or enclosures, and reduce vegetation-related hazards or access issues.
The funding instrument for this opportunity is a Cooperative Agreement, which generally means the NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the work as it is carried out. In practice, this typically includes coordination on work plans, methods, timing, reporting, compliance considerations, and alignment with park priorities and safety/resource protection standards. The opportunity is categorized as discretionary, meaning it is not an entitlement program and the agency has latitude in selecting a recipient consistent with program goals and requirements.
Eligibility is limited to nonprofit organizations that have 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, excluding institutions of higher education. This means qualified charitable nonprofits can be considered, but colleges and universities are not eligible under this listing. The opportunity anticipates a single award (Expected Awards: 1), with an award ceiling of $30,000, indicating a relatively small, targeted project rather than a large multi-year program.
An important detail is that the posting is labeled as a "Notice of Intent to Award" and explicitly states it is not a request for applications. That typically means the agency has already identified an intended recipient and is publishing the notice to meet transparency or administrative requirements, rather than inviting competition through an open application process. The opportunity record was created on May 1, 2017, and the closing information reflects that it is not open for submissions in the usual way because it is not being competed.
In short, this is a small National Park Service cooperative agreement intended for a qualified 501(c)(3) nonprofit to conduct fence maintenance and brush clearing work related to natural resource management, but it is presented as a notice of intent rather than an open call for proposals.Apply for P17AS00220
