Opportunity Information: Apply for P17AS00756
The Intergovernmental Internship Cooperative (IIC) Youth Partnership Project at Bryce Canyon National Park is a National Park Service (NPS) notice of intent to award a cooperative agreement, published by the U.S. Department of the Interior. This announcement is not a request for applications, meaning the NPS is not soliciting proposals from the public or running an open competition. Instead, the purpose is to formally notify the public that the NPS plans to fund a specific set of project activities through a non-competitive award.
The planned award is structured as a Cooperative Agreement, which typically indicates that the NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the project rather than simply issuing funds with minimal federal participation. The project is identified under Funding Opportunity Number P17AS00756 and corresponds to Cooperative Agreement P17AC01566. The intended recipient is Southern Utah University, which is eligible as a public, state-controlled institution of higher education and is participating as a partner under the Colorado Plateau Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (often used by federal agencies to collaborate with universities and other partners on research, education, and resource management priorities across the region).
In terms of focus, the activity categories tied to this opportunity point to workforce development and resource stewardship: Education, Employment, Labor and Training, and Natural Resources. The project title emphasizes an internship and youth partnership model at Bryce Canyon National Park, suggesting the primary goal is to support youth or early-career participants through structured work-based learning experiences that also advance park mission needs. While the notice does not list specific tasks, projects like this generally center on placing interns in roles that build practical skills, provide mentorship, and contribute to on-the-ground park priorities, potentially spanning visitor services, interpretation and education, natural and cultural resource support, and other operational or conservation-related work.
The notice lists an expected single award, with an award ceiling of $98,982, indicating the maximum anticipated federal funding amount for the agreement as described in the announcement. The posting date is September 1, 2017. The opportunity is associated with CFDA number 15.945, which is used to categorize federal assistance programs and helps connect the award to the broader NPS assistance framework.
Overall, this announcement functions as a transparency step rather than a competitive funding call. It documents the NPS intent to fund Southern Utah University through an established cooperative partnership framework to deliver a youth internship partnership project at Bryce Canyon National Park, combining educational and workforce training benefits with support for natural resource and park-related work.Apply for P17AS00756
