About this award
The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) awarded a $7,172.50 firm fixed-price purchase order to Whitfield & Eddy, P.L.C. on June 7, 2023, for closing services related to two Emergency Watershed Protection - Floodplain Easement (EWPP-FPE) properties in Fremont County, Iowa. The award, which has no small business set-aside designation, requires completion by November 30, 2023, and involves legal closing services for easements associated with Richard J. Besch (parcel 7561142101TC4) and Ivan R. Keil Trust (parcel 756114210T83). Whitfield & Eddy, a Des Moines-based law firm specializing in conservation-related real estate transactions, will provide the necessary title and closing documentation to facilitate the NRCS acquisition of these conservation easements.
This contract represents continued engagement between the NRCS and Whitfield & Eddy for conservation easement support, reflecting the firm's established expertise in facilitating land conservation transactions in Iowa. The EWPP-FPE program is a USDA initiative designed to restore floodplain functions and reduce flood risk through voluntary easement acquisitions from willing landowners. Whitfield & Eddy's services—including preliminary title searches, legal document preparation, and property record finalization—are integral to completing these conservation transactions and enabling landowners to participate in NRCS conservation programs.
