If awarded, the grant will allow the Amador County Sheriff’s Office to maintain a successful partnership with the United States Forest Service and continue to provide the public with outstanding OHV recreation opportunities. The State is using an Internet-based “On-Line Grant Application” application process as the means to apply for this state funding. This grant application requires the Amador County Sheriff’s Office to seek public comments on the proposal. Public comments may be submitted from March 2 through April 5, 2010. A two-step application process will allow public comment and feedback before final submittal of the grant application. The preliminary application is due March 1. This will open a 30-day public review and comment period and will follow with final applications due on Monday, May 3. Current State regulations require annual public participation in the OHV fund allocation process. State-wide the agreements support OHV management activities in the national forest, including operations and maintenance, restoration, law enforcement, education and safety. The preliminary application will be available online by visiting the California State OHV Grants and Cooperative Agreements program at www.ohv.parks.ca.gov.
