Opportunity Information: Apply for P24AS00031
The NPS Chesapeake Gateways Grants FY 2024 opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number P24AS00031) is a discretionary grant program administered by the National Park Service (NPS) through its Chesapeake office. It falls under the Environment funding activity category and is associated with CFDA (Assistance Listing) 15.930. The program is designed to support projects connected to the Chesapeake Bay watershed, with a clear geographic requirement: applicants may be based outside the watershed, but the proposed project itself must take place within the Chesapeake Bay watershed to be eligible for consideration. Projects occurring outside the watershed will not be reviewed or funded, even if the applicant otherwise qualifies.
A wide range of applicant types are eligible, including state, county, and city/township governments; special district governments; independent school districts; public and state-controlled colleges and universities; private institutions of higher education; federally recognized tribal governments as well as other tribal organizations; public housing authorities and Indian housing authorities; nonprofits with and without 501(c)(3) status (so long as they are not institutions of higher education in that category); and for-profit entities, including small businesses. This broad eligibility suggests the program is intended to reach both public and private partners that can deliver on-the-ground results and public-facing benefits in the watershed.
The maximum award amount (award ceiling) is listed as $150,000 per award. The original application closing date shown in the notice is November 3, 2023, and the opportunity record indicates it was created on August 29, 2023. Because the notice repeatedly directs applicants to the Chesapeake Gateways Grants webpage for the most current materials and details, prospective applicants are expected to rely on that webpage for the up-to-date application package, instructions, and any changes or additions to the schedule or resources.
A key feature of this opportunity is the support infrastructure provided by NPS Chesapeake. The office hosts grant workshops and trainings intended to walk applicants through the program, the required components of the application, and the submission process. Training dates and any newly added sessions are posted on the program webpage. Applicants who want notifications about future webinars are instructed to email Chesapeakegrants@nps.gov with their contact information so they can be alerted when additional trainings are scheduled.
To reduce uncertainty during application development, NPS Chesapeake also maintains a Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) resource specifically for the Chesapeake Gateways grants. The FAQ, along with the training schedule and other application resources, is available on the Chesapeake Gateways Grants webpage at https://www.nps.gov/locations/chesapeakebaywatershed/grants.htm. For anyone considering applying, that page is effectively the central hub for the full application guidance, required forms, deadlines, and clarifications that supplement the brief opportunity synopsis.Apply for P24AS00031
