Opportunity Information: Apply for P19AS00125
The "Buddy Bison and Blue Star Military Families" opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number P19AS00125) is a National Park Service notice published by the U.S. Department of the Interior on April 25, 2019. It is categorized under an "Other" opportunity type and uses a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument, tied to CFDA 15.945. Although it appears in the format of a funding opportunity posting, the key point is that it is not an open solicitation and is not asking the public to submit applications.
Instead, the notice serves as a formal notification that the National Park Service intends to make a single award (Expected Awards: 1) by issuing a task agreement under an existing cooperative agreement, referenced as CA#P15AC01324, with the National Park Trust. The posting also indicates an award ceiling of 1 (as listed), and the original closing date shown is May 5, 2019, which functions more as an administrative posting window than a deadline for competing submissions, since no applications are being requested.
Eligibility is listed broadly as "Others," but the description clarifies the practical reality: the work is intended to be carried out through the National Park Trust under the referenced agreement. In short, this announcement is a public transparency notice about NPS's intent to proceed with a specific partner and agreement vehicle for the Buddy Bison and Blue Star Military Families effort, rather than a competitive grant opportunity open to new applicants.Apply for P19AS00125
