This National Park Service initiative aims to restore America’s public lands by offering impactful environmental service opportunities. It specifically seeks to harness the idealism and energy of a dedicated volunteer labor force. The program’s core philosophy emphasizes that cooperative work on meaningful conservation projects, such as the eradication of invasive plant species, fosters cross-cultural understanding. This challenging volunteer service is designed to unite people from all backgrounds in a common cause, directly contributing to vital land restoration efforts. This public notice serves as an intent to award a task agreement under a pre-existing master cooperative agreement, rather than a new request for applications or proposals.
