Opportunity Information: Apply for P20AS00073
The National Park Service (NPS), within the U.S. Department of the Interior, issued a Notice of Intent to Award for a discretionary cooperative agreement titled "Cooperatively Maintain the Maritime Child Development Center" (Funding Opportunity Number P20AS00073). This notice functions as public transparency about the agency's plan to make an award, rather than as a competitive grant announcement. In practical terms, it means the NPS is not soliciting proposals and there is no application process or closing date because the agency has already identified the intended recipient and is proceeding without full and open competition.
The planned funding mechanism is a Cooperative Agreement, which typically indicates substantial involvement by the federal agency in carrying out the project, such as shared responsibilities, coordinated planning, or ongoing collaboration during implementation. The activity category is listed under Natural Resources, and the program is associated with CFDA 15.954 (a catalog reference used to track federal assistance programs). While the notice does not provide a detailed scope of work, the project title signals that the core purpose is the cooperative maintenance of the Maritime Child Development Center, implying upkeep, preservation, or operational support activities connected to that facility and its role in supporting NPS-related interpretive, educational, or site stewardship goals.
NPS states it intends to make one award (Expected Awards: 1) under Cooperative Agreement P20AC00696 to the Rosie the Riveter Trust. The eligible applicant type noted for the opportunity is nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), which aligns with the intended recipient being a nonprofit partner organization. Because this is a sole-source style notice rather than a competition, the eligibility statement is informational and does not mean multiple organizations can apply for this specific award.
The notice was created on June 11, 2020, and it emphasizes that the purpose is public notice of NPS intent to fund the described activities without full and open competition. No award ceiling amount is listed in the provided details, but the document makes clear that the funding is targeted to a single partner and a single project: cooperatively maintaining the Maritime Child Development Center through the established agreement with the Rosie the Riveter Trust.Apply for P20AS00073
