Opportunity Information: Apply for NPS 19 NERO 0057
The Youth Restore Historic Landscapes opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS 19 NERO 0057) is a National Park Service (NPS) public notice stating the agency's intent to make a single financial assistance award through a cooperative agreement. It is explicitly not a request for applications, meaning the announcement is meant to inform the public that NPS plans to fund a specific project rather than solicit competitive proposals. The awarding agency is the U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service, and the assistance is categorized under employment, labor, and training (CFDA 15.931). The notice was created on July 1, 2019, with an original closing date of July 10, 2019, reflecting an administrative timeline for the planned award rather than an open application window.
The purpose of the project is workforce development tied directly to hands-on conservation and historic landscape preservation work in a national park setting. The program is structured around an 18-week field season and is designed to provide practical, job-relevant experience for a small youth crew consisting of five crew members and one crew leader. The emphasis is not only on completing maintenance and restoration tasks, but also on cultivating skilled workers and engaged citizens who can become long-term stewards of national and cultural resources. In other words, the project blends tangible historic preservation outcomes with structured, real-world training intended to build future capacity in the conservation workforce.
Work activities are organized into three core project components. First, the crew will remove deteriorated wood and wire fencing and replace it with new fencing that matches historic styles, supporting both safety/functionality and the preservation of historic character. Second, the crew will build and restore stone walls, an activity that typically requires careful craftsmanship and attention to traditional construction methods, aligning strongly with historic landscape restoration goals. Third, the crew will maintain park trails, which helps protect visitor access, reduce erosion and resource impacts, and improve overall park infrastructure. Together, these tasks combine historic preservation with routine stewardship and practical field skills development.
Eligibility for the award is limited to nonprofit organizations that hold 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, excluding institutions of higher education. The expected number of awards is one, and the listed award ceiling is $97,200. Because the funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, NPS would typically expect to have substantial involvement in the project, such as participating in planning, coordinating work priorities, providing technical guidance, or collaborating on oversight and reporting, rather than simply issuing funds with minimal agency engagement.Apply for NPS 19 NERO 0057
