Opportunity Information: Apply for NPS 18 NERO 0210
The grant opportunity titled "Conducting a vulnerability assessment at George Washington Birthplace National Monument and identifying options to increase resilience at multiple parks" is a National Park Service funding action under the U.S. Department of the Interior. It is categorized as a discretionary opportunity and uses a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument, meaning the work is expected to involve substantial involvement or collaboration from the National Park Service rather than functioning like a hands-off grant. The activity area is listed under "Environment," which aligns with the project focus on vulnerability assessment and resilience planning for park resources and operations.
The core purpose of the project is to evaluate vulnerabilities at George Washington Birthplace National Monument and to identify practical options to increase resilience across multiple parks. In plain terms, this type of effort typically looks at how natural and cultural resources, facilities, infrastructure, visitor access, and park operations may be exposed to hazards such as sea level rise, coastal flooding, storm surge, erosion, extreme precipitation, heat, drought, wildfire risk, or other climate-related and environmental stressors. A vulnerability assessment generally combines information about exposure (what hazards are present and how they may change), sensitivity (what park assets are likely to be affected and how severely), and adaptive capacity (how well the park can prepare for, respond to, and recover from impacts). The "options to increase resilience" portion usually translates into identifying and prioritizing adaptation strategies, mitigation measures, planning changes, and management actions that can reduce risk and improve the parks ability to withstand disruptions over time.
This particular posting is notable because it is not an open solicitation. The announcement explicitly states it is not a request for applications and is being issued only as a public notice of the National Park Service's intent to award a task agreement. In other words, the agency is not inviting new proposals from the general public under this notice. Instead, NPS plans to make the award under a master cooperative agreement that has already been competed in the past, or under a master cooperative agreement that has been justified as single-source. This structure is common when an agency has an established partnership vehicle in place and wants to issue a specific project task (a task agreement) to an existing partner without running a brand-new competition each time.
The funding opportunity number is NPS 18 NERO 0210, and it was created on September 13, 2018, with an original closing date listed as September 22, 2018. Although a closing date is shown, in this context it functions more as an administrative timeline for posting the notice rather than a deadline for new applicants, since applications are not being accepted. The opportunity anticipates a single award (ExpectedAwards: 1) with an award ceiling of $156,327, indicating the maximum amount planned for the task agreement.
Eligibility is broadly labeled as "Others," with the note to consult the additional eligibility text for clarification. In practice, for a notice like this, eligibility is effectively limited to the entity or entities covered by the previously established master cooperative agreement that NPS intends to use. The key takeaway for an outside organization is that this notice is mainly informational: it signals that NPS is moving forward with a specific resilience and vulnerability assessment project through an existing cooperative framework, rather than opening a new competitive grant round.Apply for NPS 18 NERO 0210
