Opportunity Information: Apply for P19AS00498

The Youth and Volunteer Project to Restore Mount Harkness Fire Lookout at Lassen Volcanic National Park is a National Park Service (NPS) Notice of Intent to Award issued by the U.S. Department of the Interior. It is important to understand that this listing is not a competitive grant solicitation and not a request for applications. Instead, it serves as a public notice that NPS plans to fund a specific set of project activities with a specific partner through an existing cooperative agreement framework.

The opportunity is identified by Funding Opportunity Number P19AS00498 and is categorized as a discretionary award using a Cooperative Agreement as the funding instrument. The work will be carried out under Task Agreement P19AC00951, which sits under a larger master Cooperative Agreement (P15AC00052) with HistoriCorps. In practical terms, that means NPS is continuing or implementing a defined project with HistoriCorps under a pre-established partnership agreement rather than opening the project up for new proposals from other organizations.

The project focus, as reflected in the title, is restoration work on the Mount Harkness Fire Lookout located within Lassen Volcanic National Park. The emphasis on "youth and volunteer" indicates the project is designed not only to accomplish preservation and restoration outcomes for a historic or functional park structure, but also to provide structured opportunities for hands-on engagement, skills development, and service experience. This aligns with common NPS cooperative agreement goals that combine resource stewardship with public participation, training, and workforce development elements.

Eligibility information is included for transparency and context, noting that eligible applicants under this program category are nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education). However, because this is not an open call for applications, that eligibility category does not mean additional organizations can apply for this specific award. It simply reflects the general eligibility class applicable to the underlying assistance program and the type of partner involved in this planned award.

The announcement lists an award ceiling of $54,963 and anticipates a single award (Expected Awards: 1), reinforcing that the funding is intended for one partner to perform the defined scope of work. The CFDA number associated with the opportunity is 15.931, which is the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance identifier historically used to classify federal assistance programs (now commonly referenced through SAM.gov and related systems). The creation date for the notice is August 12, 2019, and the original closing date is effectively none because there is no application period for the public.

Overall, this notice communicates that NPS intends to fund HistoriCorps, through an established cooperative agreement mechanism, to conduct a youth- and volunteer-driven restoration project at the Mount Harkness Fire Lookout in Lassen Volcanic National Park, with total planned federal support capped at $54,963 and no opportunity for competing submissions.
