Opportunity Information: Apply for P17AS00028

The National Park Service (NPS), within the Department of the Interior, announced a discretionary grant opportunity titled "WACA 1904 Ranger Cabin National Register of Historic Places Amendment" (Funding Opportunity Number P17AS00028). The activity is focused on work connected to amending the National Register of Historic Places documentation for the WACA 1904 Ranger Cabin. In practical terms, this type of project typically involves updating or correcting an existing National Register listing, which can include refining the property description, historical context, period of significance, boundaries, contributing features, or other elements needed to keep the official record accurate and complete.

Funding is provided through a Cooperative Agreement, which generally means the NPS expects to be substantially involved during the project rather than simply issuing a grant with minimal agency participation. The opportunity is categorized under CFDA 15.945, and the funding activity category is listed as "Other," indicating the work does not fall neatly into more common buckets like construction or research, but instead aligns with a specialized cultural resources and historic preservation documentation purpose.

Eligibility is limited to nonprofit organizations with IRS-recognized 501(c)(3) status, excluding institutions of higher education. The notice anticipates a single award, with an award ceiling of $30,000. The posting lists the closing date as a "Notice of Intent," which usually signals that the award may be tied to a specific intended recipient or that the agency is documenting its intent to make an award under particular circumstances, rather than running a broad, open competition with a standard application deadline.

Key administrative details: the opportunity was created on December 5, 2016; the sponsoring agency is the Department of the Interior, National Park Service; the expected number of awards is 1; and the maximum available amount is up to $30,000 for the selected project focused on the National Register amendment for the WACA 1904 Ranger Cabin.
