Opportunity Information: Apply for NPSNOIMEVE1800679
The federal grant opportunity titled "Weed and Erosion Control to Restore Disturbed Areas at M" (Funding Opportunity Number NPSNOIMEVE1800679) is a National Park Service (NPS) discretionary funding action under the U.S. Department of the Interior. It falls within the Natural Resources activity area and is associated with CFDA 15.931, which covers NPS assistance programs. The funding instrument listed is a cooperative agreement, meaning the project is intended to be carried out with substantial involvement from the NPS rather than as a hands-off grant.
This notice is explicitly labeled as a "Notice of Intent to Award," and it is not a competitive solicitation or a request for applications. In practical terms, that means the NPS is announcing its plan to make an award to a specific partner instead of opening the opportunity to the public for proposals. The named recipient is Conservation Legacy, and the mechanism for issuing the award is a task agreement under an existing cooperative agreement that had already been put in place (Cooperative Agreement P15AC00024). Task agreements are commonly used when an agency has a standing agreement with an organization and then issues project-specific assignments under that umbrella as needs arise.
The project purpose, as reflected in the title, focuses on on-the-ground restoration work: controlling weeds and addressing erosion in disturbed areas. In a park or protected-area context, these types of projects generally target locations impacted by construction, heavy visitor use, past land disturbance, or natural events that leave soils exposed and vulnerable. Weed control typically aims to reduce or eliminate invasive plant species that can outcompete native vegetation and degrade habitat quality, while erosion control is used to stabilize soils, reduce sediment movement, protect waterways, and support the re-establishment of native plant communities. Together, these actions help restore ecological function and improve the resilience and appearance of affected sites.
The opportunity lists eligibility as limited to nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), but because this is not an open call and is instead tied to a preexisting cooperative agreement, the eligibility category is more descriptive than actionable for outside organizations. The announcement indicates an expected single award, with an award ceiling of $33,300, suggesting a relatively small, targeted project scope such as a discrete field season of treatment and stabilization work, potentially involving a small crew, materials for erosion-control structures, invasive plant treatment supplies, and monitoring or reporting.
Key administrative details include a creation date of June 13, 2018, and an original closing date of June 23, 2018. For a notice of intent to award, this "closing date" generally functions more as an administrative posting window rather than a deadline for applicants, since the agency is not soliciting proposals. Overall, the posting communicates that the NPS planned a single cooperative agreement award, issued directly to Conservation Legacy under a prior agreement, to carry out weed management and erosion-control activities aimed at restoring disturbed natural areas.Apply for NPSNOIMEVE1800679
