About this program

The Department of the Interior National Park Service funds cooperative management of Redwood National Park and adjacent State of California lands through Cooperative Agreements with California state agencies, with the most recent grant award dated September 25, 2017.

This program operates exclusively through cooperative agreements between the National Park Service and State of California agencies to develop joint operating procedures and funding for Redwood National Park management activities. Funded activities span visitor services, resource protection, public information, interpretation, resource management, maintenance, administration, design and construction, and policy development across Headwaters Forest, Redwood National Park, and proximate state lands. Recent awards have focused on resource management liaison positions, outdoor school custodial support, corvid management programs, and park infrastructure repair. The National Park Service issues written Cooperative Management Agreements following identification of project needs by park management.

The assistance-type mix is exclusively Cooperative Agreements. All 22 awards in the portfolio were structured as Cooperative Agreements. The Department of the Interior National Park Service has funded 21 awards totaling $2.7 million in federal dollars obligated; the Department of the Interior National Park Service Pacific West Region funded 1 award for $11 thousand.

Combined federal dollars obligated across the portfolio total $2.7 million. Typical annual award volumes from 2013 to 2017 ranged from two to three awards per year. Two significant American Recovery and Reinvestment Act-funded awards from 2010 dominate the portfolio: a $1.03 million award for ancient redwood forest and watershed restoration and a $460 thousand award for storm damage repair at Mill Creek. Recent smaller awards cluster in the $12 thousand to $35 thousand range for resource management and outdoor school support.

No grant opportunities are currently open. The most recent posted opportunities—all formatted as Notices of Intent to Award rather than competitive solicitations—date to September 2017 (Underground Overhead Utilities at Prairie Creek) and April 2017 (Resource Management Liaison).
