Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS) issued a public notice for a discretionary grant opportunity titled "Maintain sections of the Backbone Trail" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS8549100012). The purpose of the notice is to inform the public that NPS intends to fund a specific project activity rather than solicit proposals. In other words, this is a notice of intent to award and explicitly not a request for applications; it is posted for information purposes only.
The planned project involves rehabilitating a section of the Backbone Trail within the Santa Monica Recreation Area in California. The activity falls under the Natural Resources funding activity category and is connected to CFDA 15.931, "Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations," which typically supports conservation and resource stewardship work carried out with youth service organizations.
The award is expected to be made as a cooperative agreement, with NPS anticipating a single award. The total funding amount is fixed, with both the award ceiling and award floor listed as $46,000, indicating the intended award size is $46,000. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement associated with this award.
Eligibility is limited and specified as the California Conservation Corps under the eligibility information provided. The listing shows "Others" under eligible applicants, but the clarification makes clear that the intended eligible recipient is the California Conservation Corps, consistent with the notice-of-intent-to-award format.
Key dates for the notice include a posted date and creation date of June 14, 2010, with an original and current closing date of June 18, 2010, and an archive date of July 18, 2010. Because this was not an open solicitation, these dates function more as administrative posting and recordkeeping milestones than as a typical application window.
