Opportunity Information: Apply for P18AS00714
The "Samoan Traditional Use Study" opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number P18AS00714) is a National Park Service financial assistance notice of intent to award, issued by the U.S. Department of the Interior. It falls under the discretionary funding category and will be issued as a cooperative agreement, which typically means the National Park Service expects to be substantially involved in the project as it is carried out (for example, coordinating on methods, deliverables, or project direction rather than simply providing funds with minimal interaction). The activity focus is listed under Natural Resources and an additional "Other" category, suggesting the work is likely interdisciplinary and may combine natural resource management needs with cultural, ethnographic, or traditional knowledge documentation relevant to park stewardship.
This announcement is not a request for applications and does not have an application closing date because it is not being competed openly. Instead, it serves as a public notification that the National Park Service intends to make a single award under an existing cooperative framework: the HPI CESU (the Hawaii-Pacific Islands Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit) Cooperative Agreement P18AC01413. The intended recipient is the University of Hawaii, and the eligible applicant category shown is "Public and State controlled institutions of higher education," aligning with the University of Hawaii's status as a public university system.
The award information indicates an anticipated maximum (ceiling) of $49,999 and an expectation of one award. In practical terms, this means the project is relatively small in dollar value and is structured as a single, targeted effort rather than a broad multi-recipient grant program. The purpose, as reflected in the title "Samoan Traditional Use Study," is to support project activities that document, analyze, or otherwise develop information on Samoan traditional uses, likely in a context relevant to National Park Service resource management, planning, interpretation, or compliance needs. Because the National Park Service is the awarding agency and the activity category includes natural resources, the study may help inform how park lands or resources are managed with respect to longstanding cultural practices, traditional ecological knowledge, or customary relationships to specific places and resources.
The notice was created on September 21, 2018, and its central message is transparency: it informs the public that the National Park Service plans to provide financial assistance through a cooperative agreement to the University of Hawaii for this specific project, rather than soliciting proposals from the broader community.Apply for P18AS00714
