State Parks & Cultural Resources Wyoming

State Parks & Cultural Resources Wyoming is a state government entity registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) and responsible for managing Wyoming's state parks, cultural resources, and outdoor recreation facilities. As a key administrative division, it provides comprehensive services to federal agencies through contract and grant awards, focusing on preserving natural landscapes, enhancing public recreational areas, and maintaining cultural heritage sites. The organization works closely with various federal agencies to develop, maintain, and improve state parks, historical sites, and outdoor recreation infrastructure across Wyoming.

Through federal contract awards, State Parks & Cultural Resources Wyoming has demonstrated capabilities in providing specialized services such as land rental, security patrols, and cultural resource management. For instance, the entity completed a $13,900 firm-fixed-price purchase order with the U.S. Department of the Interior's Rocky Mountain Region for land rental services and a $23,100 security patrol contract with the Bureau of Reclamation. These contracts involved providing security surveillance, maintaining outdoor spaces, and supporting federal land management efforts. The contracts were typically non-set-aside awards, indicating open competition and the organization's competitive capabilities in delivering precise, targeted services to federal agencies.

The organization's federal grant awards predominantly focus on outdoor recreation development, historic preservation, and cultural programming. Notable grant programs include the Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) State and Local Assistance Program, National Park Service Outdoor Recreation Acquisition grants, and National Endowment for the Arts Partnership Agreements. These grants have supported diverse projects such as park improvements in multiple Wyoming cities, trail development, historic preservation initiatives, arts programming, and infrastructure enhancements. Significant grant awards include a $3,000,000 LWCF grant for Washington Park in Casper, a $500,808 Bureau of Reclamation grant for restroom replacements at Glendo State Park, and multiple National Endowment for the Arts grants supporting statewide arts programs. The organization consistently serves as a prime recipient, often sub-granting funds to local municipalities and counties to implement specific recreational and cultural projects.
