Improving access to and within federal and tribal lands

Arkansas 

MAP-21 Funding Authorized: FY 2013: $3,105,725 FY 2014: $3,129,056 FY 2015: $3,066,319 Federal land acreage for the five core FLMAs : 9.05% Federal public road miles: 2,147.9 Number of Federal public bridges: 90 Recreational visitation: 30,934,043 visitors per year 

Success story: Lee Creek to Devil’s Den State Park, Crawford and Washington Counties– This project will reconstruct 4.75 miles of AR 220 in Crawford and Washington County, Arkansas. The project will begin at the bridge over Lee Creek and continue northeast. The work will consist of placing an asphalt overlay on the existing gravel roadway, realigning curves to increase safety, and constructing a bridge at the lowwater crossing of Fall Creek. The roadway will have two 10-foot lanes and 2-foot shoulders. This project is the primary route for Ozark National Forest and will provide a safer more enjoyable access for visitor mobility to enjoy recreational opportunities at Devil’s Den State Park for fishing, hunting, camping, hiking, swimming, canoeing, mountain biking and horseback riding. .

FLAP Project Selection Process

Each FLAP project was selected from a pool of applications submitted by the facility owner in response to a state-wide call for projects. The applications were screened, rated, and ranked using PDC approved rating criteria. The PDC unanimously agreed which projects met the established State program goals and conformed with the project ranking criteria contained in the “Call for Projects SOP”. Based upon these evaluations, the proposed projects were recommended for programming within the available funding for each state. Memorandum of Agreements (MOA) were coordinated and executed for each programmed project prior to obligation of FLAP funds. There was one call for projects, from August 12, 2013 until November 7, 2013, that generated four applications totaling $14,646,300 funds requested.
