Opportunity Information: Apply for NPS NOIP19AC00340
This grant opportunity comes from the National Park Service (NPS) and centers on building up and improving the data that the agency uses to manage cultural resources, specifically cultural landscapes and historic structures. The project is framed as an internship or intern-supported effort where NPS staff will train the intern to complete key data sets inside NPS information and facility management systems. The overall point is practical: strengthen the underlying records that help NPS decide what resources qualify for certain protections, document their current condition, track impacts over time, and make that information usable across NPS programs so managers can make better, defensible decisions about preservation and maintenance.
A major focus of the work is cultural landscapes and historic structures data that feeds into systems used for everyday management. The intern would help determine eligibility (which typically means evaluating and documenting whether a landscape or structure meets criteria for listing or treatment under relevant preservation frameworks), and would help track condition and impacts (such as deterioration, weather damage, visitor impacts, deferred maintenance issues, or other threats). That information is not just collected for filing purposes. It is used to create work orders, which are the actionable maintenance and repair tasks that keep historic resources safe, stable, and accessible. It also supports Section 106 compliance packages, meaning the documentation needed under the National Historic Preservation Act when federal actions could affect historic properties. By improving data quality and completeness, the project helps ensure compliance work is better supported and easier to complete, and that on-the-ground maintenance decisions are based on current, well-organized information.
The opportunity also highlights a public-facing education component. Park landscape profiles are featured on the cultural landscape public website, which is used by the public, researchers, and educators to learn about these places. As part of building and refining the underlying park cultural resources summaries, the work can directly improve what people see and learn online. The announcement also notes that program social media posts promote featured landscapes, suggesting the project supports interpretive and outreach goals in addition to internal resource management. In other words, the data work connects to public benefits by helping parks maintain cultural resources in good condition for education and enjoyment, and by improving the accuracy and richness of information shared with the public.
Administratively, this is a discretionary funding opportunity and the planned award instrument is a cooperative agreement, which generally implies NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the project, including training, coordination, and oversight rather than simply issuing funds and stepping back. The opportunity number is NPS NOIP19AC00340, and it is associated with CFDA 15.931. The eligible applicant category is listed as "Others," which is broad and often used in federal notices to cover certain partner organizations, nonprofits, or other entities that do not fall neatly into standard categories, depending on the specific program authority. The original closing date shown is 2019-08-03, and the notice creation date is 2019-07-24. The listed award ceiling is $176,063, and the expected awards field is present but not clearly populated in the text provided. Finally, the announcement states it is a public notice of NPS's intention to award financial assistance for the described activities, signaling that the agency is announcing planned support for this project and its objectives, rather than describing a generic, open-ended research topic.
In practical terms, the project is about strengthening the data backbone that supports preservation of historic places in national parks. By training an intern to complete and refine cultural resource data sets, NPS aims to improve day-to-day maintenance planning, regulatory compliance documentation, and public interpretation products, all of which ultimately serve visitors and communities by keeping significant cultural landscapes and historic structures well documented, better maintained, and easier to understand.Apply for NPS NOIP19AC00340
