Description
The National Park Service intends to award a single source justified cooperative agreement to Conservation Legacy for the SCC Youth Crews for Trail Maintenance project. The project aims to improve the condition of Great Sand Dunes trails in order to protect the environment and provide important infrastructure for park visitors. The project will result in a more sustainable and safe trail system, and will also provide youth participants with hands-on experience in natural resource protection. The project will include removing winter tree blow-down from trails, restoring proper drainage, and improving trail corridors. The recipient will be responsible for carrying out the statement of work, recruiting and selecting students, providing transportation and subsistence, and supporting park-wide trails maintenance projects.
