Cooperative Agreement W912DY262A039

The Department of the Army awarded the Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality's Administrative Services Division a $137,238.50 Cooperative Agreement under the State Memorandum of Agreement Program for the Reimbursement of Technical Services (CFDA 12.113) for the period of July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2028. This funding reimburses the state for technical services supporting Department of Defense (DoD) Environmental Restoration Program (DERP) activities at military installations within Oklahoma, consistent with the Defense and State Memorandum of Agreement (DSMOA) executed between Oklahoma and DoD.

Under this two-year cooperative agreement, the Division provides technical and regulatory oversight services related to environmental restoration at DoD hazardous waste sites, including activities such as Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) compliance review, remediation oversight, and regulatory approvals. The specific scope of technical services is defined in Oklahoma's signed DSMOA and covers eligible Defense Environmental Restoration Account-funded activities authorized under Title 10 U.S.C. Sections 2701 et seq. The Army Corps of Engineers administers the program on behalf of the Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense (Environment) and processes reimbursement through either advance or reimbursement payment methods.
