Opportunity Information: Apply for P19AS00412

The National Park Service (NPS), within the U.S. Department of the Interior, published a Notice of Intent to Award for a project titled "Master Cooperative Agreement for Forest Restoration Training Programs at Lassen Volcanic National Park." This notice is simply a public announcement of NPS's plan to fund a specific set of activities through a cooperative agreement, and it is not a competitive funding announcement. In other words, the agency is not asking the public to submit applications, and there is no open application deadline because the decision is being made without full and open competition.

The opportunity is listed under Funding Opportunity Number P19AS00412 and uses the cooperative agreement funding instrument. A cooperative agreement generally indicates that the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement in the funded work, such as collaboration on planning, coordination, oversight, or technical direction. The focus of the project sits at the intersection of natural resource stewardship and workforce development, reflected in the activity categories of Employment, Labor and Training and Natural Resources. The relevant CFDA (Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance) number is 15.944, which is commonly associated with NPS-related financial assistance and conservation or resource management activities.

NPS states its intent to make a single award (Expected Awards: 1) with an award ceiling of $300,000. The identified recipient for this noncompetitive action is the Sierra Institute for Community and Environment, a nonprofit organization. While the general eligibility category noted for the opportunity is nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), this notice specifies that the funding is intended for the named organization under Master Cooperative Agreement P19AC00844. That master agreement structure typically suggests a longer-term partnership framework that can support a series of related tasks or projects over time, rather than a one-off transaction.

Based on the title and program framing, the funded work is geared toward forest restoration training programs connected to Lassen Volcanic National Park. In practice, projects of this type usually combine hands-on field training with conservation outcomes, such as developing work skills relevant to restoration and fuels reduction while advancing park land management objectives. The "training programs" language suggests an emphasis on building a pipeline of workers with practical experience in forest and ecosystem restoration, potentially including safety practices, tool use, vegetation management, habitat improvement, and other restoration-related competencies that can translate into longer-term employment in conservation or natural resources.

The notice was created on July 22, 2019, and it explicitly clarifies that there is no application period because it is not a request for applications. The purpose of posting the notice is transparency: it informs the public that NPS plans to direct funds to a particular partner for this work rather than running a competitive solicitation.
