- Grant Description
- RECOVERY ACT - Congress has legislated funds to the National Park Service (NPS) under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA). These funds are intended for preservation of the natural resources in the park through trail maintenance and repairs along the Wonderland Trail. WCC members are provided to the park to gain hands on experience in the environmental field. The members make up crews of six which include a crew leader with NPS trail maintenance experience. WCC will provide the crews the transportation, food, basic trail maintenance tools including chain saws, camp gear, and personal gear such as pack, rain gear, boots, personal protective gear and equipment to perform the trail work. This award is for two crews of six to construct trails and complete trail repairs to the standards of the National Park Service. One crew will work on the repair of flood damaged trails around Mount Rainier National Park including the construction of a 1,500 foot re-route on the Carbon River section of the Wonderland Trail. This crew will work from July 26, 2009 and work no longer than September 30, 2010. One crew of six will work on the construction of approximately one mile of new trail to replace trail destroyed by flooding. This crew will work approximately 22 weeks beginning July 26, 2009 and work no longer than September 30, 2010.
