Opportunity Information: Apply for P19AS00604
The grant opportunity titled "Develop Products and Strategies of Mutual Interest on Western U.S. Air Quality Issues" (Funding Opportunity Number P19AS00604) is a National Park Service (NPS) cooperative agreement focused on improving understanding of how air pollution forms, moves, and affects people and ecosystems across the western United States. The central aim is to advance public knowledge and stakeholder awareness about western air quality while supporting the overlapping missions of the NPS and WESTAR/WRAP (the Western States Air Resources Council / Western Regional Air Partnership). The agreement is designed around collaboration rather than a standard, hands-off grant, meaning NPS expects to work jointly with the partner to produce shared tools, analyses, and communication products.
The work described covers a broad set of air quality science and management activities. It includes ambient air monitoring and related data reporting, which generally means collecting measurements of pollutants in the air and making that information accessible and usable. It also includes creating and operating databases that organize air quality and emissions information so it can be analyzed consistently over time and across regions. Another major component is developing emission inventories, which are systematic estimates of pollution sources and amounts, often used as the foundation for planning and regulatory discussions. The opportunity also calls for air quality modeling, aimed at understanding pollution impacts, separating local versus transported contributions, and supporting informed discussions about potential mitigation strategies. Finally, it emphasizes outreach and education products intended to make western air quality issues clearer to the public and to decision-makers, not just to technical specialists.
Administratively, this is a discretionary funding opportunity under the Department of the Interior, National Park Service, within the natural resources activity category (CFDA 15.944). The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, and the anticipated structure is a single award with an expected award count of one. The listed award ceiling is $35,000.
A key detail is that this is not an open competition. The posting indicates a "notice of intent to award" to WESTAR based on unique qualifications, and it explicitly states that applications will not be accepted. In practical terms, that means the NPS planned to fund WESTAR/WRAP directly for this specific set of collaborative air quality products and strategies, rather than soliciting proposals from the broader public or from multiple eligible organizations. The creation date for the opportunity is September 11, 2019, and the original closing information reinforces that it is a directed award rather than a standard grant application process.Apply for P19AS00604
