Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service posted a discretionary funding opportunity titled "Trail Tread and Drainage restoration" (Funding Opportunity Number: NPS NOICAVE10734) to support natural resource stewardship work at Carlsbad Caverns National Park. The core purpose of the task agreement is the restoration of the Middle Slaughter Canyon Trail, specifically focused on backcountry trail rehabilitation to return the route to a properly managed condition. While the title highlights trail tread and drainage restoration, the overall intent is broader trail restoration work that improves durability, reduces erosion, and restores sustainable trail conditions in a backcountry setting.
This opportunity is structured as a cooperative agreement under an existing cooperative agreement framework already in place for the park. The posting indicates an expected single award and lists the total estimated funding at $25,000. No cost sharing or matching funds are required. The activity category is Natural Resources, and the CFDA listing provided is 15.931, "Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations," which signals that the work aligns with conservation projects typically carried out by organized service crews.
The eligibility notes clarify that the announcement is "for informational purposes only" and functions as a Notice of Intent to award to the Southwest Conservation Corps. In practical terms, that means it was not a broadly competed grant open to multiple applicants; instead, it communicated the agency's intention to make the award to a specific organization to perform the trail work. The opportunity was posted on July 29, 2011, with an original and current closing date of August 1, 2011, and it was archived on August 2, 2011, reflecting a short administrative window consistent with a notice of intent rather than an open solicitation.
For questions or issues accessing the full announcement, the listed point of contact is Rhonda Martinez, Contract Specialist at the National Park Service, reachable by phone at 505-988-6042.
