Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "Plan and prepare upcoming trails work and identify historic trail characteristics to inform trail design" (Funding Opportunity Number NPSNOIGRTE100001), is a National Park Service (NPS) discretionary funding notice describing a planned cooperative agreement action focused on trail planning and historic-trail research. The central purpose is to support preparatory work for upcoming trail projects, while also documenting and identifying characteristics of historic trails so that future trail design decisions reflect and protect those historic qualities. In practical terms, the work implied by the description is early-stage planning and assessment: organizing and scoping trail work, gathering and interpreting information about historic trail alignments or features, and using those findings to guide how trails may be designed, improved, or managed.
The opportunity is categorized under Natural Resources and uses a Cooperative Agreement as the funding instrument, indicating a collaborative relationship with the federal agency rather than a simple pass-through grant. The notice is explicitly labeled "FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY" and functions as a Notice of Intent to award, meaning it is not presented as an open competition. Instead, it states NPS intends to make an award to a specific organization, the Student Conservation Association, by issuing a task agreement under an existing cooperative agreement. Only one award is expected.
Funding details are modest, with an estimated total funding amount of $3,160. The listing shows an award ceiling and floor of $0, which commonly appears in older postings or notices where standard ceiling/floor fields were not used or were not applicable in the same way because the action is a task agreement under an existing umbrella agreement. No cost sharing or matching is required. The CFDA number associated with the work is 15.931, "Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations," which aligns with youth or conservation corps-style support and conservation-related project assistance.
Key dates show the opportunity was posted and created on February 11, 2010, with an original and current closing date of February 16, 2010, and it was archived on February 17, 2010. Because it is a notice of intent rather than a broadly competed solicitation, the short posting window is consistent with a public transparency notice rather than an application-driven process.
For questions or issues accessing the full announcement, the listed point of contact is Rhonda Martinez, Contract Specialist at the National Park Service, reachable by phone at 505-988-6042.
