Opportunity Information: Apply for P19AS00588
This notice describes a National Park Service (NPS) intent to make a single, non-competitive cooperative agreement award for a cultural resources project at Point Reyes National Seashore. The opportunity is titled "Identification and Evaluation of WWII and Mexican Period Resources at Point Reyes National Seashore" and is listed under funding opportunity number P19AS00588. It is a discretionary funding action by the U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service, and it was posted on August 30, 2019. The key point is that this is not a request for applications; it is a public notice that NPS plans to fund specific work with a specific partner rather than run an open competition.
The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates that NPS expects to be substantively involved during the project (for example, providing direction, coordination, data access, review of deliverables, or other hands-on collaboration), as opposed to a standard grant where federal involvement is usually more limited. The planned agreement is identified as Cooperative Agreement P19AC01148, and the recipient named in the notice is Sonoma State University. Sonoma State is participating as a partner under the Californian Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CALI-CESU) framework, referenced here as Cooperative and Joint Venture Agreement NPS-CALI-CESU-2018. CESU arrangements are commonly used by DOI bureaus to partner with universities and other eligible entities for research, technical assistance, and resource management support, and they provide a structured mechanism for issuing task-specific cooperative agreements like this one.
In terms of scope, the project focus is on identifying and evaluating resources from two historical contexts at Point Reyes: the World War II period and the Mexican period. While the notice does not list detailed tasks or deliverables, projects described this way generally involve activities such as archival and historical research, field identification or documentation of known and potential sites or features, evaluation of significance using accepted historic preservation criteria, and preparation of written documentation that can support park planning, interpretation, and compliance needs. The emphasis on "identification and evaluation" signals that the work is meant to locate or confirm what resources exist and then assess their importance and condition in a way that can inform NPS management decisions.
The opportunity lists an award ceiling of $130,000 and anticipates one award. The CFDA (assistance listing) number provided is 15.945, and the eligible applicant category is public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, which aligns with the named awardee and the CESU model. The funding activity category is labeled "Other," which is a catch-all category used on postings when the work does not fit neatly into standard activity labels like education, environment, or science, and the notice directs readers to the explanation field (not included in the text provided) for clarification.
Overall, this posting functions as a transparency and compliance step rather than a competitive grant solicitation. It signals that NPS has already selected Sonoma State University, through the CALI-CESU partnership mechanism, to carry out a targeted cultural resources effort at Point Reyes National Seashore related to World War II and Mexican period resources, with a planned federal investment up to $130,000 and substantial NPS collaboration under a cooperative agreement.Apply for P19AS00588
