Opportunity Information: Apply for W9126G 20 2 SOI 4488
The "FIELD SUPPORT FOR WATERS OF THE US" opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number W9126G 20 2 SOI 4488) is a US Air Force-funded project issued through the Fort Worth District and intended to be awarded as a cooperative agreement under CFDA 12.005. The announcement is specifically a Request for Statements of Interest (RSOI), meaning the government is first trying to identify qualified investigators and teams before requesting full technical proposals and budgets. A draft Statement of Objectives is included in the full announcement package for reference, but at this stage applicants are only expected to show relevant qualifications, capabilities, and experience performing comparable work.
Eligibility is tightly restricted. Only non-federal partners that are part of Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Units (CESU) in the Colorado Plateau region, Great Plains region, or Gulf Coast region may be considered. Organizations outside those CESU regions, federal entities, or groups that are not recognized CESU non-federal partners are not eligible for award consideration under this posting.
The project itself is framed around providing professional and technical support that helps the Air Force implement Integrated Natural Resources Management Plans (INRMPs) in alignment with the Sikes Act (16 USC 670c-1). In practical terms, the work centers on improving how Air Force installations manage and protect surface waters, including "Waters of the United States" compliance-related needs and broader surface water program improvements. The effort is designed to support consistent environmental compliance and program performance across multiple installations, with coordination among installation personnel and Air Force technical leadership.
The anticipated work is organized into two main tasks. Task 1, Environmental Compliance Program Review, focuses on program support such as reviewing existing documentation, conducting site visits to selected installations, and analyzing data. This work is to be performed in close coordination with the Air Force Water Quality Subject Matter Expert (SME), the Installation Support Section (ISS) and/or an Air Force Installation Mission Support Center (AFIMSC) detachment, along with staff at the installation level. The intent is to assess current compliance and program practices, identify gaps or improvement areas, and provide informed technical input that can be used to strengthen water resources management and regulatory alignment.
Task 2, AF Training Update, focuses on improving or developing training aimed at water resource protection. The goal is to promote process improvement by educating military users in the field, which suggests practical, user-oriented training materials or updates that translate water protection requirements into implementable actions during day-to-day operations and mission activities. This task is meant to help ensure that environmental compliance and water protection are supported not just through policy and review, but also through effective training and awareness for personnel whose activities affect surface waters.
Funding is projected at approximately $459,360 for the base year, with the possibility of two optional years if funds are available. If all periods are funded, the total potential value is $1,378,080 across the base year plus two option years. The posting lists an award ceiling consistent with that total. The review of submitted Statements of Interest was scheduled to begin on July 24, 2020, which is also reflected as the original closing date in the source data.
