Opportunity Information: Apply for P19AS00415
The Public Land Corps Project to Repair and Sustain Trails (Funding Opportunity Number P19AS00415) is a National Park Service effort under the U.S. Department of the Interior focused on restoring heavily used equestrian and hiking trails at Chickamauga and Chattanooga National Military Park. The park reports that many trail segments are severely worn and damaged from a combination of age, long-term overuse, and water-driven erosion, creating unsafe or difficult conditions for horses, riders, and hikers. The core purpose of the project is practical, on-the-ground trail rehabilitation that improves safety, durability, and long-term sustainability of the trail system.
The work described centers on standard trail maintenance and repair tasks that address common failure points in multi-use trails. Crews are expected to repair trail tread (the walking and riding surface) by fixing worn or eroded sections, stabilizing damaged areas, and restoring a safer, more even surface. Another major element is improving creek bed crossings, either by repairing existing crossings or replacing them where needed, which helps reduce risk and prevents further erosion and trail widening caused by users searching for easier routes through wet or unstable areas. In addition, the project includes vegetation removal and other minor trail work, which typically involves clearing encroaching brush, improving sight lines and passability, and supporting general trail functionality without major construction.
From a funding and administrative standpoint, this opportunity is listed as a discretionary award using a cooperative agreement, meaning the National Park Service anticipates substantial involvement in coordinating, overseeing, or supporting the work rather than simply issuing a grant with minimal federal participation. The activity category is identified as Education, and the associated CFDA (now commonly referred to under Assistance Listings) is 15.931, which aligns with National Park Service assistance programs and often includes conservation corps and public lands workforce development components.
The notice also makes clear that this posting is not an open request for applications. Instead, it is a notice of intent to make a restricted award, specifically to Conservation Legacy, with an expected single award. The stated award ceiling is $49,094 and the expected number of awards is one. While general eligibility categories mentioned include 501(c)(3) nonprofits (other than institutions of higher education) and other eligible entities as clarified in the full eligibility text, the practical takeaway is that this particular action is intended as a directed award rather than a competitive funding opportunity with a standard application deadline.Apply for P19AS00415
