Opportunity Information: Apply for NPS 20 REG1 0010
The grant opportunity titled "nhance Rare Lichen Protection by Assessing Distribution and Vul" (Funding Opportunity Number: NPS 20 REG1 0010) is a National Park Service (NPS) financial assistance notice under the U.S. Department of the Interior. It falls under the discretionary funding category and will be issued as a cooperative agreement, which typically means the NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the project as it is carried out. The activity area is Natural Resources, and it is associated with CFDA number 15.944, which is commonly used for National Park Service natural resource stewardship and science-related assistance.
The purpose of the project, as indicated by the title, is to strengthen protection of rare lichen resources by improving knowledge about where they occur (distribution) and assessing vulnerability (the "Vul" portion of the title strongly suggests vulnerability). In practical terms, projects like this usually involve field surveys to locate and map rare lichen populations, documentation of habitat conditions, evaluation of threats (such as air quality impacts, climate stressors, habitat disturbance, invasive species effects, or visitor and management-related impacts), and development of information that can be used to guide conservation decisions inside park units or related NPS-managed lands. The end goal implied by the title is better on-the-ground protection and management through stronger baseline data and a clearer understanding of risk factors affecting rare lichens.
This notice is explicitly not a request for applications. Instead, it serves as public notice that the National Park Service intends to award financial assistance for the described project activities. In other words, it is an informational posting rather than a competitive call, and it signals that NPS anticipates making an award without soliciting proposals through an open application process. The posting lists an original closing date of June 30, 2020, which in this kind of notice often functions as the end of the public notice period rather than a deadline for submitting applications.
The expected award profile is small and targeted: the award ceiling is $22,180, and the agency expects to make one award. That combination strongly suggests a single, defined project with a specific partner or a narrow set of eligible partners in mind. Eligibility is listed as "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," meaning eligibility details were intended to be explained in a separate eligibility narrative not included in the text you provided. In many NPS cooperative agreements, eligible recipients can include universities, nonprofit organizations, research institutions, states, tribes, local governments, or other qualified entities depending on statutory authority and project needs, but the exact eligible group for this notice would depend on that missing eligibility clarification field.
Overall, this opportunity is best understood as a formal announcement that NPS plans to fund a single cooperative agreement focused on rare lichen conservation work, specifically surveying and assessing distribution and vulnerability to inform protection and management actions.Apply for NPS 20 REG1 0010
