Opportunity Information: Apply for P19AS00185
The grant opportunity titled "Historic Masonry Repair of Pinery Station and Frijole Ranch" (Funding Opportunity Number P19AS00185) is a National Park Service cooperative agreement focused on hands-on preservation work and skill-building around historic masonry repair, with a specific emphasis in the provided description on Pinery Station. It sits within the Department of the Interior and is categorized under Natural Resources (CFDA 15.945). The program is discretionary, expects to make a single award, and lists an award ceiling of $85,200. Eligible applicants are public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, reflecting that the project is designed to involve students and academic partners alongside park professionals.
At Pinery Station, the core goal is to develop and apply an earthen mortar mix that is historically appropriate and more durable under local conditions. The project brings together a team that includes historical architects, materials conservators, National Park Service staff, and students. The work begins with a mortar analysis of existing historic mortars on site. That analysis is intended to identify key characteristics of the original material, including aggregate size, potential sourcing of aggregates, and the lime-to-aggregate ratios used historically. Using those findings, the team will formulate a compatible mortar mix, then refine it to better resist rapid erosion caused by exposure and the slope conditions of remaining wall elevations. In other words, the project is not just about copying the historic mortar, but also about adjusting the final recipe so it performs better while still matching the historic fabric and preservation standards.
A major deliverable is documentation. The finalized mortar mix and the steps used to develop it will be recorded in park archives and entered into the Facility Management Software System (FMSS) so it can be used for ongoing cyclic maintenance. That recordkeeping component matters because it turns what could be a one-time repair into a repeatable maintenance practice that future staff can follow, improving consistency and long-term preservation outcomes.
The application of the new mortar is planned as a one-week workshop conducted on the ruin itself. That workshop functions as both project labor and structured training, teaching National Park Service staff and student volunteers how to analyze mortars, prepare the mix, and apply it correctly in a repointing context. The expected end results include a stabilized and repaired ruin, a documented methodology for future repointing efforts by the NPS, and a trained group of staff and students who can carry those preservation skills into future projects. The opportunity also highlights visitor benefits: Pinery Station is described as a popular destination accessible by a short trail from the visitor center, so the repairs are expected to enhance the visitor experience while supporting the preservation and interpretation goals that feed directly into park programs.Apply for P19AS00185
