Opportunity Information: Apply for NPS 17 NERO 0033

This notice describes a National Park Service (NPS), Department of the Interior discretionary funding action titled "Promote research, interpretation, and preservation of Asian American and Pacific Islander history" (Funding Opportunity Number: NPS 17 NERO 0033). It is structured as a cooperative agreement, meaning the NPS expects to be substantially involved in carrying out the supported activities rather than simply providing a grant with minimal federal participation. The opportunity is associated with CFDA 15.946, which is the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance listing historically used for NPS financial assistance programs.

A key point is that the announcement is explicitly not a request for applications. Instead, it serves as a public notice that the NPS intends to make a single financial assistance award without competition. In practical terms, that indicates the agency has already identified a recipient (or a very limited set of recipients) and is using this posting to document its intent to award under a noncompetitive process. The listing shows "Expected Awards: 1," reinforcing that it is not an open, multi-award funding opportunity.

The subject matter of the project is the promotion of research, interpretation, and preservation related to Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) history. While the notice does not provide detailed project tasks, those three terms typically cover activities such as historical research and documentation, collecting and organizing archival materials, producing interpretive products (for example, exhibits, educational resources, public programs, digital storytelling, or signage), and preservation work that can include safeguarding historical resources, supporting stewardship planning, or strengthening public understanding of AAPI contributions and experiences connected to places, events, and communities.

Eligibility is broadly labeled as "Others," with a note that clarification would normally appear in an additional eligibility text field (not included in the excerpt). That category often signals that the intended recipient may be a specific type of organization such as a nonprofit, educational institution, partner organization, or other entity that does not fit neatly into standard applicant groupings for competitive programs. Because this is noncompetitive and not open for applications, the eligibility label is less about inviting applicants and more about classifying the recipient type within the grants system.

The posting dates indicate it was created on June 24, 2017, with an original closing date of July 4, 2017. For a non-application notice like this, the "closing date" functions more like an administrative end date for the public notice period rather than a deadline for submitting proposals. The award ceiling is listed as 0, which commonly appears in database records when the specific funding amount is not being disclosed in the synopsis, is to be determined, or is otherwise recorded elsewhere in internal documentation.

Overall, the announcement is best understood as an administrative transparency notice: the National Park Service planned to issue one cooperative agreement, without a competitive application process, to support work that advances the research, interpretation, and preservation of Asian American and Pacific Islander history.
