Opportunity Summary:
The "RECOVERY Trail rehabilitation" opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS ARRA M0RA 154672) is a National Park Service (NPS) discretionary funding notice describing the agency's intent to award a single cooperative agreement for trail and environmental restoration work in Mount Rainier National Park. It is posted under CFDA 15.931, "Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations," and sits within the Natural Resources activity category. The announcement is unusual in that it is explicitly not a request for applications; instead, it serves as a public notice that NPS plans to fund specific project activities without full and open competition, meaning the agency is signaling a non-competitive or limited-competition approach rather than soliciting proposals broadly.
The core purpose of the project is hands-on trail rehabilitation and conservation work, carried out by Washington Conservation Corps members in partnership with NPS trail crews. The work focus is along the Glacier Basin and Carbon River trails in Mount Rainier National Park. Beyond the physical rehabilitation and restoration tasks, the project also has a strong workforce development and experiential learning component: corps members are expected to gain exposure to federal lands management practices and to develop wilderness work experience while supporting NPS operations on these high-use and resource-sensitive trail corridors.
From a funding and administrative standpoint, the opportunity anticipates one award with an estimated total funding amount of $75,000, which also serves as the award ceiling (the award floor is listed as $1). Cost sharing or matching is required, so the recipient is expected to contribute non-federal resources in some form, consistent with the terms of the cooperative agreement. Eligibility is limited to state governments, aligning with the involvement of the Washington Conservation Corps. The posting date and creation date are both April 28, 2010, with an original and current closing date of May 8, 2010, and an archive date of June 7, 2010, reflecting that this is a historical notice tied to a specific planned award and timeframe.
For questions or access issues related to the full announcement, the listed point of contact is JoAnn Palmer, Purchasing Agent, Contracting Office at Mount Rainier National Park, reachable at 360-569-2211.
