Description
The National Park Service intends to award a task agreement under a previously competed or single source justified cooperative agreement for historic preservation at Joshua Tree National Park. The project aims to address deferred maintenance and meet resource stewardship goals through a collaborative effort between Conservation Legacy crews and park staff. The main goals of the project are to create opportunities for youth to gain experience working at the park, foster connections between youth and public lands, and reach park resource management and stewardship goals. The project will involve various tasks such as historic preservation maintenance, trail maintenance, and vegetation management.
Some key tasks and activities include:
• Historic preservation maintenance at Hexahedron Mine Cabin site
• Trail brushing and sign installation
• Vegetation management tasks such as seed collection and cleaning, nursery work, and species monitoring
• Climbing access route delineation and installation of carsonite sign posts
The project is expected to last from 03/04/2019 to 12/31/2022, with a total anticipated award amount of $58,666.67.
