Opportunity Information: Apply for NPS NOIP18AC00219
The grant opportunity titled "Rehabilitate Theodore Roosevelt National Park South Units Boundary Fence" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIP18AC00219) is a discretionary cooperative agreement offered by the Department of the Interior, National Park Service (NPS), under CFDA 15.931. It was created on May 29, 2018, with an original application closing date of June 7, 2018. The opportunity anticipates a single award with an award ceiling of $207,900. Eligibility is listed broadly as "Others," with the expectation that the work is carried out under an existing Master Cooperative Agreement (P15AC00015) between NPS and American Conservation Experience (ACE), which frames the partnership and how project responsibilities are shared.
The central purpose of the project is to complete high-priority boundary fence rehabilitation work within the South Unit of Theodore Roosevelt National Park. The practical conservation goal is to support the park's ability to protect and manage large, free-ranging animal herds, specifically bison, elk, and feral horses. Boundary fencing is a key tool for herd containment, public safety, and protection of adjacent lands, and this project targets critical fence segments that need substantial repair or full replacement due to age, weathering, flooding impacts, and general fatigue of materials.
The scope of work is detailed and measurable. By the end of the project, approximately 7.03 miles of boundary fence are intended to be brought up to standard by replacing all wood posts with 10-foot steel U-channel posts. The plan also includes replacing structural brace components that provide strength and stability to long fence runs and corners, specifically 141 in-line braces and 29 corner braces (also described as H-braces and corner braces in the work description). In addition to post and brace replacement, the project addresses flood-prone areas by rehabilitating five flood gates, including rebuilding and resetting specific floodgate structures (rebuilding and resetting three, and resetting two others). The work further calls for replacement of roughly 1,000 feet of worn or fatigued woven wire, repair and resetting of boundary access gates (five gates are referenced in the objectives, with three specifically noted for resetting in the crew work plan), and rebuilding wash crossings and wildlife crossings as needed to handle drainage events while maintaining functional passage or durability at known trouble spots.
A major emphasis of the opportunity is youth engagement and workforce development through hands-on conservation work. ACE is tasked with recruiting and fielding three fence crews for 14 weeks. Each crew is planned to include one Fence Crew Leader, one Fence Assistant Crew Leader, and four crewmembers, creating a structured team environment that supports supervision, training, and safe field operations. Collectively, the crews are expected to replace around 2,000 wood posts with steel posts, complete brace replacements, conduct floodgate rehabilitation, repair or reset access gates, replace worn woven wire, and address crossings where erosion or washouts compromise fence integrity. The intent is not only to complete physical infrastructure improvements, but also to give participants practical skills, work experience, and exposure to land management careers.
NPS support is described as an educational and interpretive component that complements the fieldwork. The park will provide cultural and environmental programs for the crewmembers, including park tours, educational sessions, and talks on park history and related resources. This element positions the project as both a maintenance and conservation action and a learning experience that connects participants to the natural, cultural, and historical significance of Theodore Roosevelt National Park, with the broader aim of encouraging continued involvement in resource protection in their communities and beyond.Apply for NPS NOIP18AC00219
