Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "Maintain and rehabilitate trails and natural landscapes" (Funding Opportunity Number NPSNOISAGU100080), was issued by the National Park Service as a discretionary funding opportunity using a Cooperative Agreement instrument. It falls under the Natural Resources funding activity category and is tied to CFDA 15.931, "Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations." The core purpose is straightforward: to carry out maintenance and rehabilitation work on trails and associated natural landscape features at Saguaro National Park through a task agreement that would be added onto an already-existing cooperative agreement.
The announcement is explicitly labeled "for informational purposes only" and functions as a Notice of Intent rather than an open competitive solicitation. In practical terms, that means the agency was not broadly seeking new proposals from multiple applicants. Instead, the National Park Service stated its intent to make the award to a specific organization, the Student Conservation Association, by issuing a task agreement under an existing cooperative agreement framework. The listing notes that the "EligibleApplicants" category is "Others," with the clarification provided in the eligibility text indicating the intended recipient.
From a funding perspective, the opportunity lists an estimated total funding amount of $25,000 and anticipates making a single award. The award ceiling and floor are both shown as $0, which typically indicates the posting is not structured around standard minimum/maximum award ranges and is instead documenting a planned agreement action with a defined total amount. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient would not be expected to provide non-federal match as a condition of the award.
Timing-wise, the opportunity was posted on August 24, 2010, with an original and current closing date of August 25, 2010, and it was archived on August 27, 2010. That extremely short posting window aligns with the "notice of intent" nature of the announcement, where the agency is publicly documenting its planned award action rather than running a longer, competitive application period.
For anyone needing assistance obtaining the full announcement details, the listed point of contact is Rhonda Martinez, Contract Specialist at the National Park Service, reachable by phone at 505-988-6042.
