Opportunity Summary:
The Project Planning in San Mateo County opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOI J8148100011) was a discretionary National Park Service funding notice issued under the Natural Resources activity category. It was structured as a cooperative agreement, meaning the work was intended to be carried out collaboratively rather than as a standard grant with minimal federal involvement. The project focus was on planning and preparatory work tied to recreation access and environmental stewardship in San Mateo County, California, specifically within habitat associated with threatened species.
The scope described a set of connected planning and on-the-ground preparation activities. These included planning for both existing and new trailheads, site preparation efforts, habitat restoration, trail realignment and enhancement, and broader landscape rehabilitation. A key theme across the tasks was improving and managing trail infrastructure while restoring and protecting sensitive ecosystems, with special attention to areas where threatened species habitat is present. In practical terms, the project aimed to balance public access and trail functionality with conservation goals, using planning and design work to guide where and how improvements and restoration should occur.
This funding notice anticipated a single award, with an estimated total funding amount of $25,070. The award ceiling was also $25,070, and the award floor was listed as $1. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient was not expected to contribute a non-federal match as a condition of receiving the funds.
Eligibility was formally listed as nonprofits that do not have 501(c)(3) status with the IRS (other than institutions of higher education). However, the announcement also made clear that the action was intended as a single-source award to the Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy. That language indicates the National Park Service planned to fund a specific partner organization directly, rather than conduct an open competition among multiple applicants.
The opportunity was posted and created on September 8, 2010, with an original and current closing date of September 10, 2010, and it was archived on October 10, 2010. For access issues or questions about the announcement, the listed contact was Carol Axley, Contract Specialist at the National Park Service, reachable by phone at 415-561-4754 or by email at carolaxley@nps.gov.
