THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR APPLICATIONS- Rehabilitate Painted Canyon Nature Trail- THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR APPLICATIONS
OVERVIEW, RECIPIENT AND NPS SUBSTANTIAL INVOLVEMENT Theodore Roosevelt National Park selected The SCA to conduct trail rehabilitation in the Spring of 201 5. The SCA’s original project estimate provided an Experienced Trail Leader for the duration of the project, as well as two weeks before the
rest of the crew arrived to assess the work that needed to be done, as well as being able to commit for a continuous ten week period.
American Conservation Experience, Conservation Corps of MN and IA, and Montana Conservation Corps were also contacted for estimates.
Continued use of The SCA will allow seamless transition between the summer crew and fall crew to continue rehabilitation work.
The 2015 summer crew completed the primary objectives of the project.
Heat and loose terrain caused several secondary objectives to not be completed.
A fall Leader Crew will spend three weeks working on the secondary objectives of the original project.
Rehabilitation work will include:
67 check steps, 2 water bars, 60’ of vertical mulching, 30’ of tread repair, 20’ of turnpike, 38’ of boardwalk, 20’ of Foot Bridge and potential 200’ re-route.
No substantial involvement on the part of the National Park Service is anticipated for the successful completion of this award.
It is anticipated that involvement will be limited to actions related to monitoring project performance, technical assistance at the request of the recipient.
NPS will provide camping location with water and access to restrooms and shower, detailed overview of work to be completed, safety briefing of Park specific hazards, Park radio for emergency communications, and all materials needed for project completion.
The Recipient is a member of the The SCA who was awarded a Master Cooperative Agreement P15AC00031 allowing The SCA to participate in specific tasks, and can provide the necessary activities involved in this particular task while providing an effective outcome for NPS and the objectives of this research/educational project.
They will accomplish this by providing Youth an opportunity to work on their public lands.
The National Park Service will receive much needed rehabilitation of park trails.
