Opportunity Information: Apply for W912DQ 18 2 0003
The NEPA Program Support opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number W912DQ 18 2 0003) is a Department of Defense award released by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Kansas City District, to obtain program-level environmental planning support for Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri. The award instrument is a cooperative agreement under CFDA 12.114 (Natural Resources). The government is seeking one partner to provide ongoing technical assistance that strengthens the installation's ability to complete National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) reviews and related documentation in a timely, defensible, and well-supported way.
The core purpose of the work is to support Fort Leonard Wood in preparing and completing NEPA and Environmental Condition of Property (ECP) documentation as part of integrated, interdisciplinary environmental planning. In practice, this means helping the installation assemble the technical analyses and supporting materials that typically feed into NEPA products such as categorical exclusions, environmental assessments, and environmental impact statements, as well as ECP records associated with property condition evaluations. The emphasis is on ensuring that environmental planning products are technically sound, consistent, and complete, and that they reflect coordination across resource areas rather than being developed in isolation.
A second major focus is public disclosure and transparency during the NEPA process. The selected non-federal entity is expected to support the installation in properly disclosing technical environmental information to the public. This generally includes helping compile, organize, and present environmental data and impact analyses in formats that meet legal requirements and are understandable for stakeholders, as well as supporting the preparation of materials used during scoping, public review, and other outreach steps that are part of NEPA compliance.
The third key element is improving the quality of government environmental planning and decision-making by strengthening how technical information is collected and analyzed. The scope highlights support for the collection and analysis of environmental information related to scoping, alternatives analysis, and evaluation of direct, indirect, and cumulative impacts. This points to work such as identifying relevant resources and stressors early, developing reasonable alternatives for consideration, and ensuring impact pathways are assessed in a way that can withstand review. It also suggests assistance with pulling together interdisciplinary inputs across natural resources, water resources, biological resources, and other technical domains so decision-makers have a clear, well-supported record.
The opportunity is tied to the unique environmental context of Fort Leonard Wood. The installation is an active IMCOM post covering roughly 61,410 acres in Pulaski County in south-central Missouri, near Waynesville and St. Robert, within the northern Ozark Highland region. The site is described as largely upland oak-hickory forest, with approximately 19 to 25 miles of permanent and intermittent streams and about 240 acres of impoundments. These landscapes support diverse terrestrial and aquatic species, including sensitive species, which is a key reason NEPA analyses at the installation require careful technical work and thorough documentation when projects may affect habitats, waterways, or other natural resources.
Eligibility is broadly open. The notice states that all responsible, non-federal entities that submit funding requests meeting the scope-of-work requirements will be considered. In other words, there is no narrow applicant type restriction in the listing itself, beyond being a qualified non-federal organization capable of performing the described technical and program support functions.
The legal authority cited is Title 16 U.S.C. Section 670c-1, which allows a military department to enter into cooperative agreements with nongovernmental organizations to maintain and improve natural resources on military installations, and to support natural and historic research that benefits those installations (and State-owned National Guard installations). That authority aligns with the natural resources and environmental planning focus of the work and explains why the funding is structured as a cooperative agreement rather than a standard procurement contract.
Administrative details in the posting indicate the opportunity was created on November 13, 2017, with an original closing date of December 13, 2017, and the government anticipated making one award. The listing shows an award ceiling of 0, which typically signals that the ceiling was not specified in the synopsis or would be defined in the full agreement and budget negotiations rather than capped in the public summary.Apply for W912DQ 18 2 0003
