Opportunity Information: Apply for NPS 18 NERO 0139
The funding opportunity titled "NJ Pinelands Long-term Environmental and Economic Monitoring" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS 18 NERO 0139) is a National Park Service notice published by the U.S. Department of the Interior on August 16, 2018, with an original closing date of August 25, 2018. Even though it appears in the format of a grant listing, it is explicitly not a request for applications. In other words, the agency is not soliciting proposals from the public, and there is no competitive application process tied to this notice.
The purpose of the announcement is to document that the National Park Service and the New Jersey Pinelands Commission are continuing work during fiscal years 2018 and 2019 that is already in progress under an existing cooperative agreement, identified as P13AC00554. The activity is framed as long-term monitoring focused on both environmental and economic conditions in the New Jersey Pinelands, signaling an ongoing effort to track key ecological indicators alongside economic or community-related measures connected to the region. The funding instrument type is a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates substantial federal involvement or collaboration during the project rather than a hands-off grant.
The opportunity is categorized as discretionary and is listed under an "Other" funding activity category, with the implication that the work does not fit neatly into more common categories and is further explained in the full notice text. The CFDA number associated with the opportunity is 15.944, which corresponds to National Park Service assistance listings. The notice indicates an expected single award, consistent with continuation funding for a specific partner already working under the referenced cooperative agreement.
From a funding standpoint, the announcement provides an award ceiling of $298,500 and anticipates one award, reinforcing that the funds are intended to support the continuation of a defined, ongoing scope of work rather than multiple new projects. Eligibility is shown as "Others," but in practical terms the notice functions as an administrative public statement about continued collaboration with the NJ Pinelands Commission, not an open call where other organizations could realistically apply.Apply for NPS 18 NERO 0139
