The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers awarded a $298,638 Cooperative Agreement to the Salcha-Delta Soil and Water Conservation District (Salcha-Delta SWCD) under the Conservation and Rehabilitation of Natural Resources on Military Installations program (CFDA 12.005). The award, effective September 6, 2024 through March 6, 2026, will fund the implementation of an Integrated Natural Resources Management Plan (INRMP) to provide healthy and resilient environments for military training on Department of Defense lands in Alaska. The key products and services to be delivered include wildlife surveys, habitat management, erosion control, and environmental compliance activities to protect and enhance biological diversity and ecological health on military installations. This grant award builds on Salcha-Delta SWCD's prior experience in invasive species management, ecological restoration, and natural resource conservation work for federal agencies across Alaska.

The objectives of this scope of work are to implement the integrated natural resources management plan to provide healthy and resilient environments that are sustainable, high-quality settings for military training, to protect and enhance biological diversity and ecological health on all department of defense lands, and to ensure compliance with all environmental laws and regulations.
