## What the grant funds

ELIGIBILITY: This funding opportunity is ONLY available for Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Units under the Colorado Plateau CESU, Great Plains CESU, and Rocky Mountains CESU. Project Title: Cultural Resources Program Technical Assistance for AFCEC/CZ Responses to this Request for Statements of Interest will be used to identify potential investigators for a project to be funded by Air Force Civil Engineer Center (AFCEC), which provides professional and technical support for Hill, F.E. Warren, Malmstrom, Minot, and Peterson Air Force Bases, in order to facilitate successful implementation of the 16 USC 670c-1 Sikes Act. $255,162.00 is expected to be available to support this project during the 6-month base period. Additional funding may be available for follow on work for up to 6 subsequent fiscal years to the successful Recipient/Awardee, subject to the availability of funds. Background: The Department of the Air Force (DAF) manages lands in all 50 states and territories in accordance with all appropriate environmental laws and regulations, including the Sikes Act, National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA), and the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA), and other requirements. The AFCEC Environmental Directorate (AFCEC/CZ) requires technical support at AFCEC for the Cultural Resources and NEPA programs to ensure that DAF, federal, state, and local resource regulations are met while minimizing the impact of DAF activities on the environment. The cooperative agreement (CA) establishes a cost-effective, time-efficient, and flexible capability to support AFCEC programs. The DAF has benefited greatly from the expertise and experience of non-Department of Defense (DoD) practitioners in the development and implementation of DAF policy concerning environmental compliance, Sikes Act issues, cultural resource regulations, and Executive Orders (EO). Extensive experience in environmental management, natural and cultural resource management (conservation), environmental compliance, and environmental law have proven to be instrumental in guiding DAF decision makers and DAF policy to make clear and sound legal decisions that benefit the needs of the DAF and the environment.
