Opportunity Summary:

The National Park Service (NPS) funding opportunity titled "Park Wide Trail Maintenance Support" (Funding Opportunity Number NPSNOIGRCA112006) is a discretionary cooperative agreement intended to support park-wide trail maintenance work for fiscal year 2011. It is categorized under Natural Resources and is associated with CFDA 15.931, "Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations," which signals that the work aligns with conservation-oriented field projects often carried out with youth or service-based conservation crews. The total estimated funding amount listed for this opportunity is $253,440. Although the listing shows no stated award ceiling or floor, it indicates an expectation of one award.

This notice is not presented as an open competition. Instead, it functions as a notice of intent to award a specific task agreement to the American Conservation Experience under an existing cooperative agreement. In practical terms, that means the NPS already has an established agreement vehicle in place and plans to issue a task agreement to that identified organization following internal NPS procedures. The eligibility section reflects this by listing eligible applicants as "Others" and clarifying that the intended recipient is the American Conservation Experience, rather than inviting applications broadly from the public. The opportunity also specifies that cost sharing or matching is required, meaning the recipient is expected to contribute some portion of the project cost through cash, in-kind support, or other allowable match sources consistent with federal assistance rules and the terms of the underlying cooperative agreement.

The announcement was posted and created on December 24, 2010, with an original and current closing date of December 27, 2010, and it was archived on January 26, 2011. Those dates reinforce that it was a short-lived posting primarily meant to document the government intention to make a directed award rather than to run a standard application period. For assistance accessing the full announcement, the listed contact is Gary Jordahl, Chief of the GLCA Contracting Office, reachable by phone at 928-608-6507, with a help desk reference also included in the contact information.
