Opportunity Information: Apply for P19AS00209
The Pu'uhonua O' Honaunau Visitor Center Documentation Internship (Funding Opportunity Number P19AS00209) is a National Park Service (NPS) discretionary funding opportunity under the U.S. Department of the Interior. It is structured as a cooperative agreement, meaning the selected participant would be expected to work closely with NPS staff rather than operating independently as a typical grant recipient. The activity focus is educational in nature and centers on hands-on professional development in historic preservation documentation.
The core purpose of the task agreement is to support a student or young professional architectural intern who will help produce Historic American Buildings Survey (HABS) drawing documentation for the Pu'uhonua O' Honaunau Visitor Center site. The work is expected to follow the Secretary of the Interior's Guidelines for Architectural and Engineering Documentation, which are the federal standards used to ensure that measured drawings and related documentation are created in a consistent, archival-quality way suitable for long-term preservation and research. In practical terms, this generally implies a strong emphasis on accuracy, standardized drafting conventions, and documentation methods that meet the requirements for inclusion in the Heritage Documentation Programs' permanent records.
The internship is planned for a six-month term and includes direct mentorship and supervision by senior NPS professionals, specifically the Heritage Documentation Program chief and the Maritime Coordinator. This indicates the intern will be integrated into NPS documentation workflows and will likely gain exposure to the full cycle of producing HABS materials, from field investigation and measurement through to drafting and preparing deliverables that comply with federal documentation standards.
Financially, the opportunity lists an award ceiling of $36,000 with one expected award. The opportunity is associated with CFDA number 15.946. Eligibility is broadly categorized as "Others," with the note that additional eligibility details would be provided in the full eligibility text (not included in the excerpt).
Finally, it is important to note that this posting is identified as a non-competitive Notice of Intent only, with an original closing date message stating that no applications are being accepted at this time. In other words, it functions more as an advance notice or administrative announcement than an open call for proposals, and it is not currently available for public application submission.Apply for P19AS00209
