Fort Huachuca Environmental Training

The Department of the Army funds student intern placements in environmental management and compliance training at Fort Huachuca under CFDA 12.450, with the most recent grant opportunity posted in November 2022 and closed in December 2022.

The program supports environmental education and training through student internships focused on cultural resources management, natural resources management, and environmental compliance. Interns work within Fort Huachuca's Directorate of Public Works, Environmental and Natural Resources Division, gaining real-world experience in fields including cultural resources, natural resources, and environmental statutes compliance. The program emphasizes educational development in science, mathematics, and engineering rather than work product, with participants classified as student interns receiving monthly stipends based on education level.

The program operates as Cooperative Agreements. Eligibility has varied across solicitations: the 2022 opportunity restricted applicants to 501(c)(3) nonprofits, while the 2018 solicitation allowed unrestricted applicants, excluding only individuals and families. Army Contracting Command—Aberdeen Proving Ground (ACC-APG), Huachuca Division manages the program and expects project teams to include personnel with appropriate expertise and scholastic curriculum requirements.

No current grant opportunities are open. The most recent solicitation (W9124A-23-00001) closed on December 19, 2022. The prior posted opportunity was in August 2018 (W9124A-18-0001), suggesting an irregular solicitation cadence of approximately four years between major postings. The source provides no recent grant award data, award portfolio statistics, or funding volume information, making it impossible to assess current program activity, typical award magnitudes, or funding concentration. Organizations interested in this program should monitor Army grant portals for the next solicitation announcement, as the extended gap between 2018 and 2022 postings indicates irregular funding cycles.
