remodeling plan, and create a detailed budget for AAAC project.

3. Apply for and secure grant funding for AAAC remodel project

4. Create an operation plan for the AAAC through collaboration with both AUCA and Ala

Archa National Park staff. The plan should include details regarding operation,

maintenance, and funding of the AAAC.

establish AAAC standard operating procedures
