Opportunity Summary:
The South Rim Visitor Transportation Plan Restoration Team grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPSNOIGRCA100001) is a National Park Service discretionary funding notice focused on natural resources work at Grand Canyon National Park. The project goal is straightforward: carry out a native plant restoration plan in areas that have been impacted around the South Rim Visitor Center. In practical terms, the funding supports on-the-ground restoration actions meant to repair disturbed landscapes and reestablish native vegetation in heavily visited and developed zones associated with visitor transportation and facilities.
This opportunity is structured as a cooperative agreement, meaning the National Park Service expected to remain substantially involved in the project rather than simply issuing a hands-off grant. The announcement is also described as a task agreement issued under an existing cooperative agreement, which indicates the work was being added as a specific, defined task within a pre-existing partnership framework rather than starting a brand-new relationship from scratch. The notice explicitly states it is a Notice of Intent to award to the Student Conservation Association, and it notes that the award was competed using internal NPS procedures. As a result, the practical eligibility is narrow for this posting, even though the general eligible applicant field is listed as "Others" with clarification provided in the additional eligibility information.
Financially, the estimated total funding amount is $183,660, with one expected award. The posting does not specify an award ceiling or floor (both are shown as $0), which typically means the total anticipated amount is provided but formal minimum/maximum bounds were not entered in the listing. Cost sharing or matching is required, so the recipient would need to contribute some combination of cash or in-kind support consistent with the terms of the cooperative agreement and task agreement.
From an administrative timeline perspective, the opportunity was posted on February 2, 2010, with a closing date of February 10, 2010, and it was archived on March 14, 2010. The CFDA listing associated with it is 15.931, "Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations," which aligns with the involvement of a youth/service conservation organization like the Student Conservation Association and reflects an emphasis on conservation work carried out through organized service teams.
For applicants or members of the public who needed help accessing the full announcement at the time, the listed point of contact was Trish Fresquez Hernandez, Contract Specialist, National Park Service, phone 505-988-6122.
