About this opportunity
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Vicksburg District awarded a $98.5 million sole-source contract to Ducks Unlimited, Inc. for the purchase of 27,706 Average Annual Functional Units (AAFUs) of mitigation credits related to the Yazoo Backwater Project in Mississippi. The contract, designated W912EE25DA013 and awarded on August 25, 2025, is necessary to compensate for unavoidable environmental impacts to wetlands, streams, and wildlife habitat as part of the Corps' flood risk reduction efforts in the Yazoo Basin. Ducks Unlimited was selected as the only mitigation bank in the Yazoo Study Area capable of meeting Clean Water Act requirements and providing the necessary environmental credits within the defined geographic area. The mitigation credits are essential for the project's compliance with environmental regulations, including Section 404 of the Clean Water Act and the Endangered Species Act, supporting flood protection measures for 317,000 acres and safeguarding 231,000 acres of cropland and 750 homes from potential flood damage.
