Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS) issued a Notice of Intent for a single-source cooperative agreement titled "Notice of Intent Single Source Award SCA Trail Maintenance Crew" (Funding Opportunity Number: NPS NOIJ8147100068). This discretionary funding opportunity falls under the Natural Resources activity category and is tied to CFDA 15.931, "Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations." The intent is to fund one award to support a youth-focused trail maintenance crew during the 2010 summer season at Golden Gate National Recreation Area (GGNRA).
The proposed project centers on deploying an eight-person "Trail Bravo" crew made up of two leaders and six students. The crew would carry out hands-on trail work aimed at improving trail sustainability and user safety, with a primary focus on the Oakwood Valley Trail in the Tennessee Valley area of GGNRA. The scope of work includes installing erosion control and drainage features such as check steps and waterbars, improving or repairing the trail tread surface, installing or repairing fences, closing and rehabilitating informal "social trails" that contribute to resource damage, and conducting general maintenance runs. If time allows, similar maintenance runs may also be performed on other trails within the Tennessee Valley area.
Financially, the opportunity lists an estimated total funding amount of $28,630, with both the award ceiling and award floor set at $28,630, indicating a fixed, single award amount. No cost sharing or matching funds are required. The opportunity anticipated a single award (Expected Awards: 1), consistent with the "single source" nature of the notice.
Eligibility is limited to certain nonprofit applicants, specifically nonprofits that do not have 501(c)(3) status with the IRS (other than institutions of higher education). The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates substantial involvement by the federal agency in coordinating or supporting the project as it is carried out.
Key dates show the announcement was posted and created on May 3, 2010, with an original and current closing date of May 10, 2010. The opportunity was later archived on June 9, 2010.
