Opportunity Information: Apply for NPSNOICOLM1900291
The funding opportunity titled "PLC FY16-19 - Invasive Species Removal, Road Corridor Maintenance, and Trail Maintenance" (Funding Opportunity Number NPSNOICOLM1900291) is a National Park Service (NPS) notice of intent to award under the U.S. Department of the Interior. It falls under the discretionary funding category and uses a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument, meaning the federal agency is expected to have substantial involvement in carrying out the supported work rather than simply issuing a hands-off grant. The activity focus is natural resources, and it is associated with CFDA number 15.931, which is commonly tied to NPS assistance programs.
This announcement is explicitly not a request for applications. Instead, it serves as a public notice that the NPS intended to make an award to a specific organization: Mesa Youth Services, Inc. The notice states that the award would be made through a task agreement under an existing cooperative agreement that had already been awarded (Cooperative Agreement P17AC00238). In practice, that means the recipient and the government already had an umbrella agreement in place, and this action would be an additional, more specific task order or task agreement issued under that broader cooperative framework.
The project scope described by the title indicates on-the-ground conservation and maintenance work in park or public land settings, specifically involving invasive species removal, maintenance of road corridors, and maintenance of trails. Invasive species removal generally involves identifying and controlling non-native plants (and sometimes other organisms) that can outcompete native species, alter habitats, increase fire risk, or degrade ecosystem function. Road corridor maintenance typically refers to managing vegetation and drainage along road edges, keeping corridors safe and passable, reducing erosion, maintaining sightlines, and limiting the spread of invasive species along disturbed roadside areas. Trail maintenance usually includes clearing brush and downed trees, repairing tread and drainage features, addressing erosion, maintaining trail structures, and keeping routes safe and sustainable for visitors while protecting surrounding natural resources.
Although the "Eligible Applicants" field lists nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), that eligibility information is largely academic in this case because the notice is not competitive. The agency had already selected the recipient and was notifying the public of its intent to award. The opportunity anticipated a single award (Expected Awards: 1) with an award ceiling of $63,000, indicating the maximum amount expected for this task agreement. The posting shows a creation date of April 11, 2019, and an original closing date of April 21, 2019; for a notice of intent, the closing date functions more like an administrative posting period rather than a deadline for submitting applications.
In short, this is a publicly posted, non-competitive NPS notice stating that up to $63,000 would be awarded via cooperative agreement mechanisms to Mesa Youth Services, Inc. to carry out natural resource stewardship and maintenance work centered on invasive species control and upkeep of roadsides and trails, with the agency likely collaborating closely in planning, oversight, or implementation as is typical under a cooperative agreement.Apply for NPSNOICOLM1900291
