Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "RECOVERY ACT - National Park Service, Trail Maintenance at Congaree National Park" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS ARRANOICONG100004), was a National Park Service (NPS) Recovery Act-funded project focused on practical, on-the-ground maintenance work at Congaree National Park. The project scope centered on keeping the park's trail and water-route infrastructure functional and safe for visitors while supporting field operations. Specifically, the work included clearing and maintaining trails throughout the park, repairing a footbridge that spans Cedar Creek and its associated sloughs, installing and replacing signage along the park's canoe route, and maintaining service equipment used by crews during field operations. Overall, the intent was to address deferred maintenance and improve access and navigation for both hikers and paddlers, consistent with the Recovery Act emphasis on supporting conservation work and jobs.
The award was offered as a discretionary cooperative agreement under the Recovery Act activity category, with an expected number of awards listed as one. The total estimated funding was $42,465, and a cost-sharing or matching requirement applied. The CFDA program number associated with the opportunity was 15.931, "Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations," which aligns with youth and service-based conservation work often carried out through partner organizations.
In terms of eligibility and competition, the listing makes clear that this announcement functioned as a Notice of Intent to award specifically to the Student Conservation Association (SCA). It was not an open competition at the time of posting; instead, it was described as a modification that increased funding on an existing task agreement (J5430090061). The notice explains that the underlying award had already been competed using internal NPS procedures, and that the earlier task agreement had not been publicly posted because its initial dollar value was below the $25,000 threshold. This posting therefore served primarily as a public transparency step connected to the funding increase rather than a solicitation inviting new applicants.
The opportunity was posted and created on March 10, 2010, with an original and current closing date of March 20, 2010, and it was archived on April 19, 2010. For access issues or questions tied to the announcement, the listed point of contact was Rose McClelland, Contracting Specialist, reachable by phone at 504-589-3882 or by email at rosemcclelland@nps.gov.
