Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity was a Recovery Act (ARRA) funded cooperative agreement issued by the National Park Service (NPS) to support on-the-ground rehabilitation work in Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park, specifically along the historic Chilkoot Trail corridor. The purpose of the project was straightforward: carry out needed maintenance and restoration on key visitor and historic resources, including trails, campgrounds, and culturally significant sites tied to the Klondike Gold Rush era. The announcement frames the work as both resource protection and visitor infrastructure improvement, aimed at keeping the Chilkoot Trail and associated facilities safe, usable, and historically preserved.
Administratively, the opportunity was listed under Funding Opportunity Number NPS ARRANOIKLGO100002 and carried the title "RECOVERY ACT(ARRA) National Park Service, Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park, Rehab Trails/Campgrounds/Cultural Sites." It was categorized as an "Other" opportunity and used a Cooperative Agreement as the funding instrument, meaning the NPS anticipated substantial involvement or coordination with the recipient during project execution rather than simply issuing a standard grant with minimal federal participation. The activity was tied to Recovery Act objectives, which commonly emphasized rapid implementation, job support, and deferred maintenance or infrastructure improvement on public lands.
The funding amount was fixed and relatively small in scale, reflecting a targeted, defined scope of work. The estimated total funding was $35,575, and both the award ceiling and award floor were also set at $35,575, indicating the agency planned to make a single award for that exact amount rather than funding multiple applicants or varying project budgets. The notice stated an expectation of one award. A cost sharing or matching requirement applied, meaning the recipient was expected to contribute some portion of project costs or in-kind support in addition to the federal funds, though the summary record does not specify the match percentage or acceptable match types.
In terms of eligibility, the listing shows "Others" as eligible applicants with additional clarification provided in the eligibility information. In reality, this posting functioned as a Notice of Intent to Award rather than an open competitive solicitation. The NPS indicated it intended to award the cooperative agreement to the Southeast Alaska Guidance Association for the rehabilitation of trails, campgrounds, and cultural sites along the Chilkoot Trail within the park. The notice also notes that the agreement was competed in accordance with internal NPS procedures, suggesting that any competition occurred through NPS processes rather than through a broad public call for applications.
The opportunity was posted on April 14, 2010, with an original and current closing date of April 23, 2010, and it was archived on May 23, 2010. That short window is consistent with a notice-of-intent style posting where the agency is documenting an intended award rather than seeking new proposals from the general public. The CFDA number associated with the opportunity was 15.931, titled "Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations," which aligns with hands-on conservation, maintenance, and stewardship work that can be performed by organized crews, often with an emphasis on youth engagement, workforce development, and conservation labor.
For anyone needing the full announcement at the time, the contact listed was Joy Kucinski, Supervisory Contract Specialist, reachable by phone at 907-644-3301 or by email at JoyKucinski@nps.gov. Overall, the opportunity represented a small, specific ARRA-funded project intended to improve and protect high-use and historically important park assets along the Chilkoot Trail through coordinated work between the National Park Service and a named partner organization.
