LWCF State Assistance Formula Grants - Planning - FY24

The National Park Service is providing funding opportunities for state lead agencies to develop or update their State-wide Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan (SCORP) or supporting elements of it. The LWCF Act requires each state to develop and maintain a SCORP for overall program eligibility for LWCF grants. The key aspects of this opportunity include: • Developing or updating a SCORP to assess demand and need for outdoor recreation resources • Setting priorities for the use of LWCF funds • Review and approval of each State’s SCORP by the NPS • Updating the SCORP at least once every 5 years • Addressing priority needs or goals of the SCORP • Following the eligibility, procedural, and programmatic requirements outlined in the LWCF Grant Assistance Manual.
