Opportunity Information: Apply for P17AS00471
This funding opportunity, titled "Complete Historic Resource Study Titled 'Seward Lot Histories: Windows through Time, 1903-1990s'" (Funding Opportunity Number P17AS00471), is a discretionary National Park Service (NPS) award under the U.S. Department of the Interior. It is structured as a cooperative agreement, which generally means the NPS expects to have active involvement during the project rather than simply issuing a grant and stepping back. The activity area is listed under Education and Humanities (with cultural affairs relevance), and it is associated with CFDA number 15.946, indicating it falls within an NPS assistance program tied to cultural and educational work.
The purpose of the project, as reflected in the title, is to complete a historic resource study focused on "Seward lot histories" spanning roughly from 1903 through the 1990s. In practical terms, a study like this typically compiles and analyzes historical information connected to individual land lots or parcels over time, often drawing from property records, maps, photographs, city directories, archival collections, oral histories, and other documentation. The phrase "Windows through Time" suggests the deliverable is intended to make the evolution of these lots understandable across different periods, likely capturing changes in ownership, land use, building development, and community patterns across much of the twentieth century. The opportunity text itself says "See attached documents for more information," so the specific scope, methods, required products, and any formatting or research standards are presumably defined in those attachments rather than in the brief public notice.
The notice indicates this is not a broadly competitive call in practice, but a "notice of intent to award" to a specific organization: the Resurrection Bay Historical Society. That language usually signals the agency has identified a particular recipient as uniquely qualified or already involved in the relevant local historical work, and the announcement functions mainly to document the government action and provide transparency. Consistent with that, the eligible applicant category is listed as 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations other than institutions of higher education, matching the type of entity the named historical society would be.
The award details show an anticipated single award (Expected Awards: 1) with an award ceiling of $40,000. The original posting date is July 5, 2017, and the original closing date is July 11, 2017, which is a very short window and further reinforces that the announcement is primarily procedural for an intended recipient rather than an open solicitation meant for a large applicant pool. Anyone trying to understand the exact work to be performed, the timeline, reporting requirements, and the nature of NPS involvement would need the referenced attached documents, since the summary description in the public record is minimal and repeatedly directs readers to those attachments for substantive requirements.Apply for P17AS00471
