Opportunity Information: Apply for NPS 18 NERO 0004
The National Heritage Area Program Technical Assistance Projects notice (Funding Opportunity Number NPS 18 NERO 0004) is a public announcement from the Department of the Interior, National Park Service (NPS) stating its intent to make a financial assistance award without competition. In other words, it is not soliciting applications from the public and should not be read as an open grant competition. Instead, NPS is providing formal notice that it plans to fund specific technical assistance activities connected to the National Heritage Area (NHA) Program in the NPS Northeast Region through a cooperative agreement, which typically means NPS will remain substantially involved in the work as it is planned and carried out.
The opportunity is categorized as discretionary funding and will be issued as a cooperative agreement under CFDA 15.939. The eligible applicant type listed is limited to nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education). The notice indicates an expectation of one award. An award ceiling is listed as 0, which generally signals that a fixed maximum amount is not being advertised in the public notice, and that funding levels may instead be determined later through task agreements, work plans, and budgets tied to the cooperative agreement, subject to the availability of federal funds.
The project purpose is to provide technical assistance that supports the NHA Program in the Northeast Region in a way that aligns with NPS criteria and standards. The recipient organization (identified in the notice as HDP) is expected to apply funding provided through subsequent task agreements to help NPS and participating partners strengthen the effectiveness and consistency of NHA operations and programming. This support is framed as ongoing and modular, with future tasks defined through separate work plans and budgets rather than fully detailed in this announcement.
The main activities described include developing and delivering training programs and creating practical resource materials and informational products for several audiences: national heritage area staff, partner organizations, friends groups, and NPS regional and park personnel. This suggests an emphasis on capacity building, knowledge sharing, and standardized guidance so that organizations working within or alongside heritage areas have access to tools and training that improve program delivery, partnership coordination, and alignment with NPS expectations.
The notice also outlines basic performance and accountability expectations. The recipient will use NPS-provided funds to complete projects that will be specified later in future work plans and budgets, and will be responsible for reporting to the NPS Northeast Region NHA Program. Reporting includes progress updates during the course of the work and final reporting on findings or outcomes associated with the completed projects. Overall, the announcement functions primarily as a transparency and procedural notice: it tells the public that NPS intends to make a single, non-competitive cooperative agreement award to support technical assistance work for the Northeast Region NHA Program, with specific tasks to be defined and funded over time as funds become available.
Key administrative details in the source information include a creation date of November 14, 2017 and an original closing date of November 23, 2017, though the “closing date” here should be understood in the context of a notice rather than an application deadline, since the announcement explicitly states it is not a request for applications.Apply for NPS 18 NERO 0004
