Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service Recovery Act Maintain Camp Sites and Picnic Area Sites Joshua Tree National Monument (JOTR154638) funding opportunity is a one-time, American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA) supported project aimed at improving visitor-use facilities across Joshua Tree National Park. The work focuses on comprehensive maintenance of camping and day-use areas, specifically covering two group campgrounds, nine family campgrounds, one VIP group campground, one horse camp, and nine picnic areas located throughout the park. Because ARRA funds are involved, the award is explicitly tied to Recovery Act reporting and accountability requirements, meaning the recipient would be expected to support the extra tracking and documentation obligations that come with ARRA-funded work.
This opportunity was posted under Funding Opportunity Number NPS ARRAJOTR100004 and is offered as a Cooperative Agreement, categorized under a Recovery Act funding activity. The total funding amount is fixed at $85,000, with an award floor and ceiling both set at $85,000, indicating the agency anticipated making a single award for that exact amount (Expected Awards: 1). There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient would not be required to contribute additional non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the award.
Eligibility for this opportunity is limited to state governments. The listing references CFDA 15.931, Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations, which often aligns with projects that can involve conservation corps-style crews or similar workforce models, although the notice itself emphasizes the maintenance scope and does not spell out a youth corps requirement in the text provided. The opportunity also notes TAS 1035 and NAICS 238110; NAICS 238110 typically relates to poured concrete foundation and structure contractors, which can be consistent with maintenance and repair tasks at campsites and picnic areas where pads, site features, or related infrastructure may require rehabilitation.
A key detail is that the National Park Service stated this notice is an intent to make a non-competitive award. In practical terms, that means the agency was not seeking open competition among multiple applicants and likely had a specific recipient in mind, using the posting primarily to satisfy transparency or administrative requirements. The posting timeline reflects a short window: it was posted March 3, 2010, created March 9, 2010, and closed March 13, 2010, with the announcement later archived April 12, 2010.
