Opportunity Summary:

The Fort Huachuca Environmental Training opportunity is a Department of Defense funding program (Army contracting activity at Fort Huachuca) designed to strengthen on-installation environmental programs by placing student interns and new graduates into structured, real-world training roles. Rather than paying primarily for a specific deliverable or “work product,” the core purpose is educational: giving participants hands-on experience and professional development in applied environmental fields while they support the installation's ongoing mission needs. The program specifically emphasizes building science, mathematics, and engineering education pathways that connect classroom learning to practical field and compliance settings.

Funding is offered as a discretionary cooperative agreement under CFDA 12.450 and falls within the Science and Technology and other Research and Development activity category. The award structure indicates a single expected award with an estimated maximum (award ceiling) of $150,000. As a cooperative agreement, the arrangement typically implies active involvement from the federal partner during the period of performance, often including collaboration on intern activities, training objectives, oversight, and alignment with Fort Huachuca environmental priorities.

The training areas highlighted include cultural resources, natural resources, and environmental compliance. In practice, that can cover experiences such as assisting with cultural resource surveys and documentation, supporting wildlife and habitat management activities, participating in data collection and monitoring efforts, and learning how environmental laws and regulations are implemented on a federal installation. The intended beneficiaries are students and recent graduates who want early-career exposure to environmental work in a military installation context, where regulatory compliance, land stewardship, and mission requirements intersect.

Eligibility is broadly open (unrestricted) to any entity type, subject to any additional eligibility clarifications that may appear in the full announcement. Key administrative details from the posting include the opportunity number W9124A 16 0001, an original posting date of June 20, 2016, and an original closing date of July 20, 2016, indicating it was a time-limited competition with one anticipated recipient.
