OHV Competitive Trail Project Grants
Good Management Submissions
Good OHV Management Trail Crew Projects
Good Management trail crew projects will receive funding every year. There is no competitive process for obtaining this grant money. Successful OHV Good Management Program grant applicants must:
Have a service area widely used for OHV riding.
Demonstrate over a consecutive period of three or more years their ability to fulfill the fiscal and field objectives as presented in their annual OHV grant proposals and achieve all aspects of a Good Management Program.
Take a holistic management approach that preserves riding opportunities while protecting sensitive resources within the areas they service.
Provide service including trail and support facility maintenance, as well as: reconstruction, monitoring, signing, trail and signage inventory, education, mapping, compliance checks, and, in the case of the Forest Service, law enforcement.
-
Involve trail crews that use "best practices" to maintain and restore OHV riding areas.
Include at least two (but preferably three) full-time, seasonal crew members who must be deployed for at least five months during the summer and fall recreation seasons.
These grants are given first priority in funding through the OHV Grant Program because of their long standing attention to high-use OHV riding areas and their successful history of managing those areas.
