Fort Knox Integrated Communication, Coordination, and Risk Management Implementation Plan

Lincoln Trail Area Development District received a $587,394 Project Grant award from the Department of Defense Washington Headquarters Service (DOD WHS) Office of Economic Adjustment under the Community Economic Adjustment Assistance for Responding to Threats to the Resilience of a Military Installation program (CFDA 12.003), effective September 1, 2025, with completion scheduled for February 28, 2027. The grant funds the development and implementation of an Integrated Communication, Coordination, and Risk Management Implementation Plan for Fort Knox, Kentucky. This deliverable addresses threats to military installation readiness that originate from off-post sources and enhances collaboration between the installation and surrounding communities.

The project supports Fort Knox's operational resilience by establishing coordinated frameworks for communication, governance, and risk management across military and local government entities. As part of CFDA 12.003's broader mandate, this planning initiative enables identification and mitigation of infrastructure vulnerabilities, environmental threats, and compatibility challenges between civilian and military land use patterns. Funds are disbursed quarterly based on demonstrated progress and documented expenditures, and the award requires compliance with federal audit requirements under 2 CFR Part 200, Subpart F.
