Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service announced a discretionary funding opportunity titled "Notice of Intent Single Source Award SCA Trail Maintenance Crew" (Funding Opportunity Number: NPS NOIJ8147100071) to support trail maintenance and resource protection work during the 2010 summer season at Golden Gate National Recreation Area (GGNRA). The award was structured as a cooperative agreement under the Natural Resources activity category, and it was specifically tied to CFDA 15.931, "Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations," which signals an emphasis on engaging youth or student participants in hands-on conservation and stewardship projects.
The project scope focused on staffing and operating an eight-person summer trail maintenance crew made up of two crew leaders and six students. The crew's core responsibilities centered on improving trail sustainability and reducing erosion impacts through the installation of erosion control features and related trail infrastructure. The listed tasks included building check steps, installing waterbars, improving or stabilizing tread surfaces, constructing or repairing fences, closing or rehabilitating informal "social" trails, and carrying out general trail maintenance runs. While the primary work location was the Owl Trail within GGNRA, the announcement noted that the crew could also be assigned to maintenance runs on other trails throughout the larger GGNRA trail system if time and scheduling allowed.
From a funding and administrative standpoint, the opportunity anticipated a single award (Expected Awards: 1) with total funding of $28,630. The award ceiling and floor were both set at $28,630, indicating a fixed award amount rather than a range. No cost sharing or matching requirement was included, so the recipient was not required to contribute additional non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the award. Eligibility was limited to certain nonprofit entities, specifically nonprofits that do not have 501(c)(3) status with the IRS (other than institutions of higher education), reflecting the program's alignment with youth service and conservation organizations that may operate under alternative nonprofit structures.
The opportunity was posted and created on May 3, 2010, with an original and current closing date of May 10, 2010, and it was archived on June 9, 2010. For access issues or questions about the full announcement, the listed point of contact was Colleen Broussard Perry, Contract Specialist at the National Park Service, reachable by phone at 916-561-4792 or by email at colleenbroussard perry@nps.gov.
