Opportunity Information: Apply for P19AS00266
The grant opportunity titled "Inform and Redirect Visitors During Redwood Renewal Projects" (Funding Opportunity Number P19AS00266) is a National Park Service notice describing its intent to make an award under an existing cooperative agreement, rather than an open solicitation. In other words, it is not inviting new applications; it serves as a public notification that the Department of the Interior, National Park Service plans to provide financial assistance for a specific set of activities connected to visitor communication and management at Muir Woods National Monument.
The purpose of the project is to place three Public Information Contacts (PICs) at Muir Woods during major construction and restoration work known as the "Redwood Renewal" projects. These PICs are intended to help visitors navigate changing conditions while the park remains open during intermittent closures of trails, bridges, the entrance plaza, and parking lots. Muir Woods typically receives around 1 million visitors per year, and the park is aiming to maintain a strong visitor experience even when there is noise, construction activity, and re-routed pedestrian access in the most heavily visited areas.
The PIC roles are practical and visitor-facing. They are expected to communicate directly with visitors throughout the day, explain what work is happening and why, and actively redirect people around closed areas. Their duties also include updating and replacing trail closure signs, printing and distributing new maps when conditions change, and helping interpret the resource benefits of the work so visitors understand the long-term improvements being made. The staffing plan described in the notice calls for the three PICs to work about 5.5 months each year for four consecutive years, covering the 2019 through 2022 construction period.
The broader Redwood Renewal effort referenced in the notice includes multiple infrastructure upgrades and natural resource enhancements. Major elements include installing new water and sewer lines, improving all five parking lots and the entrance plaza so they function better under a reservation system, replacing four aging pedestrian bridges, replacing the entrance boardwalk, establishing three new trail routes to accommodate changes along the main trail, and conducting creek restoration to remove rock riprap from creek banks and improve salmon habitat. Alongside the on-the-ground visitor contact work, the project also involves creating and preparing communication materials, signage, and online information so visitors can be informed before arriving and while on site.
From a funding and administrative standpoint, the opportunity is categorized as discretionary funding using a cooperative agreement instrument, with an activity focus in natural resources. The eligible applicant type listed is nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education). The notice indicates an anticipated single award, with an award ceiling of $415,000. Key dates included in the public notice are a creation date of June 13, 2019, and an original closing date of June 28, 2019, although the text makes clear the "closing date" does not function like a typical application deadline because the announcement is not requesting proposals.Apply for P19AS00266
