Description
The Readiness and Environmental Protection Initiative (REPI) allows the Department of Defense to enter cost share agreements (with no minimum cost share requirement) with state governments, local governments, and private conservation organizations to purchase easements or other interests in land surrounding military installations. Projects must limit land use that is incompatible with the mission of the installation, preserve habitat, relieve current or future restrictions on military activities, or enhance installation resilience from extreme weather events.Additional Program Notes & TCS Insights
Previous projects addressing wildland fire have included in FY2021 when REPI awarded $1.1 million to U.S. Army Garrison, Hawaii for wildfire mitigation, management, and restoration, with an emphasis on firebreak development.Appropriations
