EFC worked with partners in the Delaware River Basin to develop a proposal for an upcoming Regional Conservation Partnership Program (RCPP) funding opportunity. This process included reviewing the original Delaware Basin RCPP project, providing comments to the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) on new RCPP rules, identifying and engaging stakeholders, assessing stakeholder capacity and project feasibility, and developing an implementation plan. After EFC lead stakeholders to consensus on the geographical and topical scope of the project, we worked with partners to detail the goals, activities, funding needs, and partner roles. An important part of this process entailed identifying a lead organization (applicant and fiscal agent) to manage the program, if awarded.
