Opportunity Information: Apply for W912EF 22 2 RPA 0001
The "Natural Resources Training and Education at Dworshak Project" opportunity is a discretionary federal funding announcement from the Department of Defense, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Walla Walla District. It is set up as a cooperative agreement, meaning the selected partner should expect active involvement from USACE during the project rather than a hands-off grant. The main purpose is to pair outdoor education and workforce training for young adults with on-the-ground stewardship work at the Dworshak Project, focusing on practical land and park management needs on public lands.
At its core, the program is looking for an organization that can provide structured, challenging education and job-training experiences that help young adults build employable skills, personal responsibility, and pathways toward productive careers. A notable emphasis is on serving young adults in a way that also supports continued education after high school, including opportunities for assistance connected to formal post-secondary education. In other words, the work component is not just seasonal labor; it is intended to be wrapped into a broader training and development model that equips participants with real-world competencies they can carry into natural resource, conservation, park operations, and related fields.
The work to be accomplished under the cooperative agreement is focused on maintenance and natural resource management activities typically needed to keep public recreation and conservation areas safe, functional, and ecologically healthy. Examples listed include park maintenance, vegetation management, prescribed burning, landscaping, and similar services. These tasks suggest the partner organization should have the capacity to supervise and train participants in field-based operations, safety, tool use, and potentially specialized practices like prescribed fire (which generally requires strong coordination, planning, and compliance with applicable safety standards and permissions).
Funding for the opportunity has an award ceiling of $32,000, with an expectation of a single award. The opportunity was created on April 15, 2022, and originally closed on May 15, 2022. The funding activity category is Natural Resources, and the listed CFDA number is 12.010. Eligibility is broadly noted as "Others," with clarification expected in the full announcement under the additional eligibility information section, indicating that nontraditional or mission-aligned entities may be considered depending on the program rules in the full notice.
The legal authority cited for the program comes from the Water Resources Development Act of 2000, specifically Title 33, Part 2339, Section 213(a), Public Law 106-106-541 (33 U.S.C. 2339). This authority supports USACE partnerships that combine public land stewardship needs with educational and training benefits, aligning conservation-type work with workforce development outcomes. Overall, the opportunity is designed for an organization that can reliably deliver both sides of the mission: completing tangible maintenance and resource management work at the Dworshak Project while providing meaningful training, mentorship, and educational advancement support to participating young adults.Apply for W912EF 22 2 RPA 0001
