Opportunity Information: Apply for NPS 17 NERO 0188
The Student Conservation Internship for Heritage Area Program (Funding Opportunity Number NPS 17 NERO 0188) is a National Park Service (NPS) discretionary cooperative agreement notice issued by the U.S. Department of the Interior. It is not an open call for proposals and not a request for applications. Instead, it serves as a public notice that NPS intends to make a single task agreement award under an already-established master cooperative agreement that was either previously competed or supported by a single-source justification. In practical terms, this means the partner organization is essentially pre-identified through the existing agreement mechanism, and the notice is posted for transparency rather than to solicit new applicants.
The project centers on supporting an internship tied to the National Heritage Areas (NHA) Program, specifically a Communications Coordinator intern position. The Student Conservation Association (SCA) is the named partner expected to carry out the work. SCA's responsibilities include helping recruit and select the intern, then providing the core administrative and logistical support needed for the intern to successfully complete the assignment. This includes coordinating closely with NPS to oversee the intern's day-to-day participation, addressing performance or conduct issues if they arise, and taking corrective measures when necessary. SCA is also responsible for maintaining administrative records for the intern and providing general administrative support throughout the internship period.
A significant part of the agreement involves direct support to the intern in the form of allowances and travel coverage. SCA will provide a travel allowance for situations where the intern lives within commuting distance of the duty station, as well as a housing allowance during the internship, and subsistence support during the tour of duty. In addition to these living and participation supports, SCA will supply a uniform for the intern and cover official-duty travel expenses for site visits connected to the internship, such as travel to National Heritage Areas, national parks, or related locations.
Financially, the notice lists an anticipated award ceiling of $27,592 and an expected number of awards of one. The assistance listing is tied to CFDA number 15.931. The opportunity lists eligibility as nonprofit organizations with IRS 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), though because this is not an application-based competition, that eligibility statement functions more as a classification of the type of entity associated with the cooperative agreement framework than as an invitation for new submissions. The notice was created on August 31, 2017, with an original closing date of September 9, 2017, reflecting the standard posting window even though no applications are being accepted.
Another key term is the required cost share: SCA will provide a 25 percent match of the total project cost as the required cost share to NPS funds under the task agreement. Overall, the notice describes a structured partnership where NPS funds, combined with the partner's cost share and administrative capacity, are used to place and support a communications-focused intern to advance the National Heritage Areas Program through coordinated recruitment, oversight, travel, housing/subsistence support, and program administration.Apply for NPS 17 NERO 0188
