Opportunity Information: Apply for P17AS00687
The "Endangered Bird Monitoring and Evaluation at Hawaii Volcanoes National Park" grant notice (Funding Opportunity Number P17AS00687) is a National Park Service (NPS) financial assistance announcement under the U.S. Department of the Interior. It is categorized as a discretionary opportunity and will be issued as a cooperative agreement, meaning the NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the work as it is carried out, rather than simply providing funds with minimal federal participation. The activity focus falls under natural resources, and it is associated with CFDA (now commonly referred to as Assistance Listing) number 15.945, which is typically used for NPS financial assistance programs.
This notice is specifically a "Financial Assistance Notice of Intent to Award," and it is not a competitive solicitation. In practical terms, that means the government is not asking the public to apply and there is no application period to compete for the funding. Instead, the NPS is publishing this announcement to satisfy public transparency requirements by stating its intention to make a single, non-competitive award for a defined project. The planned recipient identified in the notice is the University of Hawaii, and the award is to be made through the Hawaii-Pacific Islands Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (HPI CESU) mechanism under Cooperative Agreement P17AC01458.
The project described by the title involves monitoring and evaluating endangered bird populations at Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. While the notice does not provide a detailed work plan in the excerpted text, the stated purpose strongly indicates field and analytical activities that support conservation and management of threatened and endangered avian species in the park. In this kind of setting, "monitoring and evaluation" generally refers to structured surveys and population tracking over time, assessment of habitat conditions, and the production of information that park managers can use to make decisions about protection, recovery actions, and long-term stewardship of sensitive wildlife resources.
The opportunity lists eligible applicants as public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, which aligns with the University of Hawaii being the intended awardee. The expected number of awards is one, reinforcing that this is a single-recipient, non-competitive action rather than a grant program with multiple winners. The award ceiling is stated as $53,967, which indicates the maximum anticipated federal funding amount for this specific assistance action as described in the notice.
The record shows a creation date of August 17, 2017. The "original closing date" field effectively indicates that there is no closing date because the announcement is not a request for applications. Overall, this notice functions as a public posting that the National Park Service plans to fund a specific, narrowly defined natural resource project with the University of Hawaii, focused on endangered bird monitoring and evaluation work at Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, using a cooperative agreement framework and without opening the funding to competition.Apply for P17AS00687
