Opportunity Information: Apply for NWO CESU 17 5
The grant opportunity titled "CULTURAL RESOURCES SUPPORT FOR FORT AP HILL, VA" is a discretionary funding announcement issued by the U.S. Department of Defense, specifically through the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Omaha District. It was posted on November 30, 2016, with an original application closing date of December 29, 2016. The opportunity is identified by Funding Opportunity Number NWO CESU 17 5, and it is associated with CFDA number 12.632, which broadly relates to Department of Defense assistance programs. The funding activity category is listed as Environment, which signals that the work is tied to environmental compliance and stewardship responsibilities that include the protection and management of cultural resources on federal lands.
This opportunity is structured as a Cooperative Agreement rather than a standard grant or procurement contract. In practical terms, that means the federal agency expects substantial involvement in the project beyond simply providing funds, such as collaboration on technical direction, coordination, review of deliverables, and ongoing project oversight. Cooperative agreements are commonly used when the agency anticipates a partnership-style relationship with the recipient to accomplish program goals, which in this case revolve around cultural resources at Fort A.P. Hill in Virginia. While the brief public description does not list specific tasks, the title and activity category indicate support work that typically includes cultural resource management functions such as archaeological or historical surveys, site documentation, evaluation of historic properties, support for compliance under laws like the National Historic Preservation Act, and related planning and reporting needed for installation operations and mission readiness.
The announcement indicates an award ceiling of $190,000 and expects to make one award. That combination strongly suggests a single, project-specific effort of moderate size, with a defined scope and a set of deliverables to be completed within an agreed period of performance. Because there is only one anticipated award, competition is likely focused on identifying one qualified partner capable of meeting technical requirements, managing field and documentation work if needed, and coordinating effectively with government staff and stakeholders. The ceiling is the maximum amount the agency expects to obligate under this announcement; the final award amount would typically depend on the applicant's proposed approach, budget, and negotiated scope.
Eligibility is labeled as "Others," with a note directing interested parties to consult the "Additional Information on Eligibility" section in the full announcement for clarification. In similar Department of Defense cultural resources opportunities, eligibility sometimes targets specific categories of partners such as participants in a Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Units (CESU) network, universities, non-profits, or other entities with specialized expertise in cultural resources, historic preservation, archaeology, architectural history, or environmental planning. The presence of "CESU" in the opportunity number suggests it may be connected to the CESU framework, which is often used by federal agencies to collaborate with academic and non-profit partners on natural and cultural resource projects.
Overall, this funding opportunity is best understood as a targeted, collaborative project to provide cultural resources support services at Fort A.P. Hill, Virginia, funded through a discretionary Department of Defense program and implemented through a cooperative agreement with one selected recipient. The key takeaways are the administering agency (DoD / USACE Omaha District), the cooperative agreement mechanism indicating active federal involvement, the environmental and cultural resources focus, the single expected award, and the maximum funding amount of $190,000, with applications originally due by December 29, 2016.Apply for NWO CESU 17 5
