Opportunity Information: Apply for P18AS00223
The Department of the Interior, National Park Service announced a discretionary funding opportunity titled "NOTICE OF INTENT: Native Plant Community Restoration of Bryce Canyon National Park" (Funding Opportunity Number P18AS00223). The award is planned as a cooperative agreement under CFDA 15.931, focused on natural resource work inside Bryce Canyon National Park. The opportunity was created on May 15, 2018, with an original closing date of May 25, 2018. The National Park Service anticipated making one award, with a maximum funding level (award ceiling) of $62,000. Eligibility is listed broadly as "Others," with the expectation that applicants would need to review the opportunitys additional eligibility details to confirm they qualify.
The overall goal of the project is to restore and preserve diverse native plant communities in natural areas of Bryce Canyon National Park while giving youth a meaningful, hands-on conservation experience. In practical terms, the project is designed to combine resource stewardship with workforce development by engaging young participants directly in field-based ecological restoration activities. This implies that the work is not only about ecological outcomes, but also about training, mentorship, and building practical skills related to habitat restoration, invasive species management, and native plant re-establishment.
The project lays out four main objectives that define the restoration work. First, it aims to reduce the relative cover of invasive, non-native plant species across natural areas, which typically involves activities like surveying, mapping infestations, applying appropriate control methods, and monitoring to prevent reinvasion. Second, it seeks to improve wildlife habitat and forage by reducing woody plant encroachment into grassland meadows, a common issue that can shrink open meadow habitat and reduce the quality and quantity of forage for animals that rely on grassland vegetation. Third, the project intends to re-establish native plant species in areas disturbed by facilities improvement projects, meaning locations where construction or maintenance work has disrupted soils and vegetation and now require revegetation to restore ecological function and appearance. Fourth, it focuses on improving the natural landscape in and around visitor use areas by reducing visitor-related impacts to soils and native vegetation and then re-establishing native plants, which suggests actions such as stabilizing disturbed soils, rehabilitating trampled areas, guiding foot traffic away from sensitive sites, and reseeding or planting appropriate native species to bring damaged areas back into a more natural condition.
Taken together, the grant opportunity supports a targeted set of restoration actions that address invasive species, meadow health, post-construction rehabilitation, and high-traffic visitor impact zones, all within the broader purpose of maintaining native plant diversity and ecological integrity at Bryce Canyon National Park. The cooperative agreement structure also signals an expectation of close coordination with the National Park Service during project implementation, consistent with a partnership approach where the agency is actively involved in planning, oversight, or technical guidance.Apply for P18AS00223
