Opportunity Information: Apply for P19AS00536
The Zion Canyon Trail Maintenance and Repair opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number P19AS00536) is a National Park Service financial assistance notice of intent to award under the U.S. Department of the Interior. It is categorized as a discretionary funding opportunity and will be issued as a cooperative agreement, which typically means the National Park Service expects to have substantial involvement during the project rather than acting only as a pass-through funder. The activity category listed is Education, and the associated CFDA (now commonly referred to as Assistance Listing) number is 15.931, which corresponds to National Park Service financial assistance programs.
Eligibility is limited to nonprofit organizations that have verified 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, specifically excluding institutions of higher education. The notice indicates an intent to make a single award (Expected Awards: 1), with a maximum federal funding amount (Award Ceiling) of $129,750. In practical terms, that ceiling is the upper limit for the federal share under this particular award, and applicants should assume proposals above that amount would not be considered fundable under this notice.
The title and framing of the opportunity indicate the core purpose is trail maintenance and repair work within Zion Canyon, which is part of Zion National Park. While the provided source text does not include a detailed scope of work, the focus implied by the title would generally cover on-the-ground trail upkeep activities such as repairing tread surfaces, addressing erosion and drainage issues, restoring or stabilizing trail edges and retaining structures, improving safety and durability of high-use segments, and related visitor-use infrastructure maintenance that supports sustainable trail conditions. Because it is a cooperative agreement and tied to the National Park Service, the project would typically be carried out in close coordination with park staff, using NPS standards and prioritization, and often with requirements related to resource protection, visitor safety, and minimizing impacts to natural and cultural resources.
The listing is presented as a notice of intent to award rather than an open, competitive solicitation with a standard deadline, and the Original Closing Date field repeats that it is an NPS financial assistance notice of intent to award. That usually signals the agency has identified a recipient or is using a limited-competition or directed-award approach rather than soliciting broad applications from the public. Anyone reviewing this notice should interpret it less as a general call for proposals and more as an administrative announcement that the National Park Service plans to make an award under these parameters.
Key takeaways: it is an NPS cooperative agreement for Zion Canyon trail maintenance and repair, capped at $129,750, expecting one award, and limited to eligible 501(c)(3) nonprofits (excluding colleges and universities), with the opportunity record created on August 15, 2019.Apply for P19AS00536
