Opportunity Information: Apply for F18AS00281
The funding opportunity titled "Trail maintenance and invasive plant management" (Funding Opportunity Number F18AS00281) is a Department of the Interior, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service discretionary grant offered through a cooperative agreement. The program sits within the Environment, Natural Resources, and Regional Development funding activity category and is associated with CFDA number 15.654. In practical terms, it is aimed at on-the-ground stewardship work that improves habitat conditions while also supporting safe, functional recreational and visitor-use areas.
The scope of work centers on three closely related tasks. First, it supports habitat restoration through planting and ongoing maintenance of restored areas, which typically involves establishing native vegetation and ensuring it survives and functions as intended over time. Second, it funds invasive pest plant control and follow-up maintenance, recognizing that invasive species management is rarely a one-time effort and often requires repeated treatments and monitoring to keep invasive plants from re-establishing. Third, it includes maintenance of recreational and visitor facilities, which can cover routine upkeep that helps keep trails and associated visitor infrastructure usable and safe while minimizing impacts to surrounding natural resources.
Eligibility is listed as unrestricted, meaning the opportunity was open to any type of entity, subject to any additional eligibility details that may have been provided in the full announcement text. The opportunity was designed for a single award, with an expected award count of 1 and an award ceiling of $85,000, indicating a relatively focused project with a defined budget limit. The original posting timeline shows a creation date of August 2, 2018 and an original closing date of August 9, 2018, reflecting a short application window.
Finally, the notice indicates that a recipient has already been selected. That means the competition phase for this particular opportunity is closed, and the funding decision has been made under the cooperative agreement framework, which typically involves substantial federal involvement during project implementation compared to a standard grant.Apply for F18AS00281
