This Cooperative Agreement award from the U.S. Department of the Interior Fish and Wildlife Service, under the Fish and Wildlife Coordination and Assistance program (CFDA 15.664), provides $104,948 to the Alaska Conservation Foundation to support Year 3 of the "Northern Latitudes Partnerships Project 9 HAZWOPER Training for Rural Alaskan Spill Response Partners." The project aims to provide 40-hour HAZWOPER training to five rural Alaskan communities located on or near Department of the Interior lands, as well as develop outreach materials and networks to advertise the training opportunity. This initiative is intended to enhance species and habitat conservation efforts in the northern latitudes by building spill response capacity within these rural communities.
