The Oregon Parks and Recreation Department (OPRD) has opened the 2026-2027 All-Terrain Vehicle (ATV) Operations and Maintenance and Law Enforcement grant cycle for off-highway vehicle recreation projects.
Deadline and application process
The current O&M and Law Enforcement cycle opened September 17, 2026. A letter of intent is due October 9, 2026 by 11:59 PM, and the full application is due November 9, 2026 by 11:59 PM. OPRD uses its online grants system. The official page does not separately state a deadline time zone, so none is inferred.
Eligibility
Eligible applicants include public agencies responsible for OHV recreation, including federal, Tribal, state and local governments; private landowners or managers offering public OHV recreation in Oregon; registered nonprofit OHV clubs; and first-aid or police service providers connected to ATV recreation.
Funding and match
The current official program page does not state a total funding pool or per-award maximum for this cycle. Project sponsors must provide a minimum 20% match, which may include local funds, other grants, agency labor or equipment, or eligible donations.
Eligible activities
This open cycle covers operation and maintenance of OHV trails and facilities and law-enforcement activities in OHV riding areas. OPRD lists a broader all-project-types cycle, including emergency medical services, planning, development, safety education and acquisition, as opening December 4, 2026.
Atlas assessment
Atlas Opportunity Score: 58/100. The opportunity is open and Oregon-administered, but the currently open cycle is specialized to OHV operations, maintenance and law enforcement.
N9+ Fit Score: 0/100 for the currently open cycle. The verified open O&M and Law Enforcement cycle does not establish a defensible remote physical examination use case. The broader December cycle includes EMS, which should be reassessed when it opens rather than presumed eligible now.
