Opportunity Information: Apply for P19AS00399
The Historic Inscription Documentation opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number P19AS00399) is a discretionary funding action from the U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service. It is structured as a cooperative agreement, which typically means the National Park Service expects to have substantial involvement in how the project is carried out, rather than simply issuing funds and stepping back. The activity category is listed under information and statistics, suggesting the core work centers on documenting, compiling, and organizing information related to historic inscriptions, producing usable records or datasets rather than construction, restoration, or capital improvements.
Funding under this action is tied to CFDA (now commonly referred to as Assistance Listing) 15.945, and it anticipates a single award with an award ceiling of $132,900. The eligible applicant pool is limited to nonprofit organizations that have IRS-recognized 501(c)(3) status, excluding institutions of higher education. In practical terms, that points to organizations such as history-focused nonprofits, preservation nonprofits, friends groups, or similar mission-driven entities that can carry out documentation work and coordinate closely with the National Park Service.
A key detail is that this notice is not a request for applications. The listing states it is a notice of intent to award under a Master Agreement (P17AC01055). That wording generally indicates the agency has already identified the recipient or recipients under an existing umbrella agreement and is proceeding toward an award without open competition. As a result, there is no standard application cycle, no competitive deadline, and no expectation that new applicants can submit proposals for this particular posting. The original closing date field reinforces this by explicitly noting it is a notice of intent to award, not a solicitation.
In summary, this is a National Park Service cooperative agreement action intended to support a specific historic inscription documentation effort, with up to $132,900 available for one award, limited to qualifying 501(c)(3) nonprofits (not universities), and issued under an existing master agreement rather than through an open call for applications.Apply for P19AS00399
