Common use of Emergency Stabilization and Rehabilitation on Non-Federal Lands Clause in Contracts

Emergency Stabilization and Rehabilitation on Non-Federal Lands. ES and BAR funding is generally only available for use on Federal and Federal Indian Trust lands (including Native Allotments). However, funding may be made available for non- federal lands (including ANCSA Native Corporations) through the Xxxxx Amendment when a "direct benefit" to federal lands can be demonstrated (e.g., preventative measures on non- federal lands designed to prevent degradation of nearby federal lands). In very limited situations, it might also be applied to hazard tree removal where significant federal land was involved or where a federal agency manages a right-of-way across non-federal lands. Other options for funding emergency stabilization and rehabilitation actions on non-federal lands include: • Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) funding programs including the Emergency Stabilization and the Environmental Quality Incentives Program (EQIP) (xxxxx://xxx.xxxx.xxxx.xxx/wps/portal/nrcs/detail/national/programs/financial/eqip/). • Emergency appropriations through the State of Alaska legislative process. • FEMA Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (xxxxx://xxx.xxxx.xxx/hazard-mitigation- grant-program) funding available following Presidential major disaster declarations.
