  • Coordinate environmental planning activities with appropriate USASMDC organizations, Army environmental offices, installation personnel, legal counsel, engineering organizations, project managers, regulators, and other Federal, State, local, and host-nation stakeholders, as applicable.
  • Support compliance activities associated with NEPA, the Endangered Species Act (ESA), Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA), U.S. Army Kwajalein Atoll (USAKA) Environmental Standards, and other applicable environmental requirements.

  • Identify environmental deficiencies, compliance risks, corrective actions, and unresolved issues and track them through resolution.
  • Review environmental studies, reports, plans, scopes of work, acquisition documents, and contractor deliverables for technical quality, completeness, and consistency.
  • Establish standardized environmental planning processes, templates, workflows, quality-control procedures, and recurring program reporting.
  • Provide technical leadership, task coordination, mentoring, and workload prioritization for assigned environmental SETA personnel and subcontractor support.
  • Prepare and present executive-level briefings, decision papers, program status reports, risk assessments, and recommendations to USASMDC leadership.
  • Travel to CONUS and OCONUS locations, up to 30% as required to support environmental assessments, inspections, project planning, and stakeholder coordination.
