Opportunity Information: Apply for P20AS00096
The grant listing titled "Engaging Youth through Trails, Roads and Environmental Restoration Projects" (Funding Opportunity Number P20AS00096) is not an open grant competition and is not requesting proposals. Instead, it serves as a public notice from the Department of the Interior, National Park Service, stating the agency's intent to make a single-source cooperative agreement award based on the recipient's unique qualifications. Because it is a notice of intent rather than a funding opportunity announcement, the National Park Service explicitly instructs interested parties not to submit applications.
This opportunity is categorized as a discretionary award using a cooperative agreement, which typically means the work involves substantial involvement by the federal agency during project implementation rather than a more hands-off grant structure. The activity category is listed under Employment, Labor and Training, and it carries CFDA number 15.931. The focus suggested by the title indicates projects that engage youth in hands-on conservation and infrastructure-related work such as trail and road projects and environmental restoration activities, likely aligned with National Park Service resource management and maintenance needs.
The listing indicates that eligible applicants are state governments, but the intent is to make only one award (Expected Awards: 1) through a single-source process, meaning the agency already has an identified partner it plans to fund. The maximum amount shown for the award is $40,579 (Award Ceiling: $40,579). The notice was created on August 17, 2020, and the original closing date is listed as August 27, 2020, which functions more as an administrative timeline for the notice period rather than a true application deadline. For specifics on the rationale for the single-source selection, the scope of work, and the intended recipient, the listing directs readers to the attached Notice of Intent.Apply for P20AS00096
