Donor Name: Oregon Parks and Recreation Department State: Oregon County: All Counties Type of Grant: Grant Deadline: 10/07/2024 Size of the Grant: $1000 to $10,000 Grant Duration: 2 Years Details: The mission of the ATV Program is to communicate information regarding off-highway vehicle riding opportunities, laws and rules, and to provide grant funding for off-highway vehicle projects that include Operations and Maintenance, Law Enforcement. These projects help provide ATV recreation users quality riding opportunities and safe experiences. Grant funds come from ATV user permit sales and a percentage of gasoline tax money. Operations and Maintenance (O&M) ATV projects that provide for the normal day-to-day routine operation of ATV trails and facilities. Operations may also include employees, trail patrols, camp hosts or other trail volunteers who make public contact to provide help and information to ATV users as part of their daily routine. Maintenance projects include services and equipment necessary to maintain ATV trails and facilities. Emergency repair may be considered development or O&M depending on the situation. ATV Project Sponsors must have a maintenance plan in place that includes how each trail or facility will be maintained, how often maintenance will be provided and the maintenance standard to be used. Maintenance includes purchase or rental of equipment such as all-terrain vehicles and excavators used to maintain ATV trails.  Sign replacement and trail guides may be included in maintenance applications. O&M projects on non-federal land that contain new trail or facility construction or significant trail reroutes or improvements, such as bridge installation need to consult with OPRD ATV staff to determine which additional forms will need completion. This will include SHPO review and the Environmental Assessment Checklist. State Natural Resource Agency Review might be required for major work. If new ground disturbing projects come up during the active grant cycle, SHPO review will need to be conducted and State Natural Resource Agency reviews may need to be conducted based on scope of work. Law Enforcement (LE)- Law Enforcement grants fund services and equipment to patrol areas open to ATV recreation. Incidental responses related to ATV use to areas outside riding areas are allowed, but should not be the main focus. Law enforcement project sponsors must be representatives of federal, state, county or city agencies. Officers must have arrest authority and their primary duties are law enforcement. Employees who focus on O&M duties but also have citation authority fit under the O&M project type. For example, in the US Forest Service, Law Enforcement Officers (LEOs) are considered law enforcement, while Forest Protection Officers (FPOs) are considered O&M. BLM Rangers are considered Law Enforcement.
