Opportunity Information: Apply for P17AS00224
The Vegetation Management Project at Grand Teton National Park (Funding Opportunity Number P17AS00224) is a discretionary cooperative agreement issued by the Department of the Interior, National Park Service (NPS), created on May 03, 2017. It is listed under CFDA 15.931 and falls within the activity categories of Education and Natural Resources. The announcement is unusual in that it is explicitly not a request for applications, meaning it is not structured as an open, competitive call for proposals; instead, it functions more like a formal notice describing an intended financial assistance arrangement.
The core purpose of the agreement is to provide financial assistance to the Montana Conservation Corps (MCC) to support on-the-ground conservation work at Grand Teton National Park with a strong youth and cultural landscape focus. A key component is the establishment of a tribal youth corps that will carry out cultural landscape conservation activities within the Mormon Row Historic District and along various park trails. In practical terms, this points to hands-on stewardship work tied to the protection and care of historically and culturally significant landscapes, likely involving tasks that help maintain the character and condition of the area while also providing meaningful training and service opportunities for tribal youth participants.
In addition to the cultural landscape and youth corps element, the agreement also continues MCC's existing partnership with NPS to complete vegetation management fieldwork across the park. The work specifically emphasizes invasive plant activities and native plant revegetation, which typically includes identifying and treating invasive species, preventing further spread, and restoring impacted areas by re-establishing appropriate native vegetation. This combination reflects a dual goal: protecting park resources by reducing invasive plant impacts while actively rebuilding native plant communities that support wildlife habitat, ecosystem function, and the overall health and resilience of park landscapes.
The funding details indicate an award ceiling of $84,000, with one expected award. While the source data lists eligible applicants as county governments, the described intent of the agreement is to provide assistance to the Montana Conservation Corps, consistent with the notice being non-competitive and not requesting applications. Overall, the opportunity is best understood as a targeted NPS-MCC cooperative effort that blends workforce development and education (through a tribal youth corps and field training) with direct natural resource outcomes (invasive species management and native revegetation) in priority locations within Grand Teton National Park, including the Mormon Row Historic District and park trail corridors.Apply for P17AS00224
