Opportunity Information: Apply for NPS 17 NERO 0063
The grant opportunity titled "Appalachian Trail: FY17 ATC Cyclic Trail Maintenance" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS 17 NERO 0063) is a discretionary funding notice issued by the Department of the Interior, National Park Service. It was created on June 15, 2017, with an original closing date of June 25, 2017. The funding instrument type is a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates an award structure where the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement during performance of the funded work, rather than simply providing funds with minimal ongoing participation.
This notice is essentially a public notification rather than an open competition. The National Park Service states its intention to award a task agreement under an existing master cooperative agreement that had already been justified for single-source use. In practical terms, that means the agency was not broadly soliciting new applicants for this specific piece of work; instead, it planned to issue a task-level award under a pre-established agreement framework, likely to a specific partner already identified under that master cooperative agreement. The announcement repeats this intent in both the short description and the full description, reinforcing that the purpose of the posting is transparency about an intended award rather than a typical competitive grant process.
The project focus is cyclic trail maintenance related to the Appalachian Trail, referenced in the title as "FY17 ATC Cyclic Trail Maintenance." "ATC" commonly refers to the Appalachian Trail Conservancy, a longstanding partner in trail stewardship, although the notice itself frames eligibility broadly as "Others" and points to additional eligibility details (not included in the provided text). The funding activity category is listed as "Other," with a note that clarification would be in an additional explanation field, again suggesting this is an administrative classification rather than a standard program category.
Financially, the opportunity lists an award ceiling of $41,561 and anticipates a single award (Expected Awards: 1). The associated CFDA number is 15.935, which corresponds to National Park Service-related assistance listings. Overall, the notice communicates that the National Park Service planned to direct a modest, single award for Appalachian Trail cyclic maintenance work through an already-authorized cooperative agreement structure, and the posting serves primarily as formal public notice of that intended action.Apply for NPS 17 NERO 0063
