Opportunity Information: Apply for P19AS00476
The grant opportunity titled "Landscape Approaches to Resource Stewardship" (Funding Opportunity Number P19AS00476) is a National Park Service (NPS), Department of the Interior notice describing a discretionary cooperative agreement action focused on natural resource stewardship in the National Capital Region (NCR). The central purpose is to expand resource planning and decision-making beyond individual park boundaries by examining NPS-managed resources within a broader regional landscape context. In practical terms, the effort is aimed at understanding how environmental, cultural, and historical resources connected to NCR parks interact with surrounding lands and mapped regional resource conditions, so that stewardship priorities can be identified with a clearer picture of cross-boundary pressures, opportunities, and landscape-scale connections.
This notice specifically pertains to a modification supporting Phase III of an existing, previously competed cooperative agreement with the University of Maryland, which is an eligible applicant category (private institutions of higher education). It is not an open solicitation and not a request for applications. Instead, it functions as public notice that NPS intends to provide funding for a single expected award under an already established agreement. The stated award ceiling is $100,000, and the anticipated number of awards is one.
Phase III is described as being developed collaboratively with NPS and centered on synthesizing multiple data sources. The work will combine data derived from NCR parks with resource information that has been mapped across the broader regional landscape. The outcome NPS is seeking is an integrated, landscape-level understanding that helps identify the most effective NPS-NCR opportunities to preserve resources that are environmentally important, culturally meaningful, and historically significant, both within individual parks and across the network of parks in the region. The emphasis on synthesis and mapped regional data suggests an applied planning and analysis effort intended to support real-world stewardship decisions, partnerships, and prioritization where park resources depend on or are influenced by conditions outside park borders.
Administratively, the opportunity was created on August 7, 2019, with an original closing date of August 17, 2019, reflecting the formal posting window rather than a competitive application period. The funding instrument type is a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates substantial involvement by the federal agency in the project during performance, consistent with the description that Phase III will be developed in collaboration with NPS.Apply for P19AS00476
