Opportunity Information: Apply for P17AS00627
The "Plaster Treatment Planning at Tonto Montezuma Castle National Monuments" opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number P17AS00627) is a National Park Service (NPS) cooperative agreement listed under the U.S. Department of the Interior. It is categorized as a discretionary award and falls under an "Other" funding activity category (with additional clarification implied in the original listing). The opportunity is associated with CFDA number 15.945, which typically covers NPS-related assistance programs and projects connected to park resources, preservation, and public benefit.
The purpose of the award is focused on planning work related to plaster treatment at Tonto National Monument and Montezuma Castle National Monument. In practical terms, this kind of project generally supports the assessment, documentation, and development of treatment recommendations for plaster features that are historically or archeologically significant. Because these sites include well-known cliff dwellings and associated cultural resources, plaster stabilization and conservation planning can be a critical part of protecting fragile surfaces from deterioration caused by time, environmental exposure, visitor impacts, moisture movement, salts, and other deterioration mechanisms that affect earthen and plastered architectural elements. Rather than funding a broad range of activities, the title and framing indicate a targeted effort to produce a treatment plan or planning deliverables that guide future conservation actions.
This listing is explicitly labeled as a "Notice of Intent to Award" and "not a request for applications." That means the NPS was not soliciting open competition through a standard application process at the time of posting. Instead, it indicates the agency intended to make an award to a specific partner or through a predefined arrangement. The funding instrument type is a cooperative agreement, which usually signals that NPS expected to have substantial involvement during the project. In many federal contexts, that can mean NPS staff collaborate with the recipient on technical direction, review of deliverables, access coordination, compliance considerations, and integration of results into park management and preservation workflows.
Eligibility is limited to public and state-controlled institutions of higher education. This restriction suggests the intended recipient would be a state university or similar public academic institution with relevant expertise, such as architectural conservation, materials science, archeology, heritage preservation, or conservation planning. The structure implies that the NPS was seeking specialized technical capacity, likely to produce research-based recommendations, condition assessments, or conservation methodologies appropriate for culturally significant plaster in a protected federal setting.
The award ceiling is listed as $44,001, and the expected number of awards is one. That combination points to a single, modestly sized planning project rather than a large-scale multi-year implementation effort. The posting date (creation date) is August 8, 2017. In summary, this opportunity represents a single cooperative agreement intended to support the development of a professional plaster treatment plan for key cultural resources at Tonto and Montezuma Castle National Monuments, issued as a notice of intent rather than an open call for applications.Apply for P17AS00627
