These projects will differ in their levels of effort and these differences are described in three major task areas below: 1. Workshops based on existing EPA policy tools to help communities plan for or recover from disasters; 2. Workshops where the Contractor develops responsive design solutions to address disaster risks or impacts for specific locations; 3. Research for and piloting of new disaster resilience tools or resources. EPA intends to provide technical assistance, design work, and develop new tools and resources that can address risks from wildfires, drought, hurricanes, extreme heat, flooding, earthquakes, landslides, sea level rise, winter storms, pandemics and more.
