Washington, United States Office Of The Secretary Full time

The incumbent will work closely with senior level Department officials in implementing financial assistance programs that further the Department's mission to create the conditions for economic growth and opportunity for all communities. Specifically, the CHIPS Incentives Program provides $100 billion to catalyze long-term growth in the domestic semiconductor industry to support our national and economic security by financing major semiconductor manufacturing and related facilities through a combination of grants, loans, loan guarantees, and other transactions, and NTIA's various broadband grant programs provide over $48 billion to connect everyone in America to high-speed, affordable, reliable Internet access. Financial assistance awards under these programs may be subject to various Federal environmental and historic preservation mandates and responsibilities, and funded actions will be subject to a range of Federal, state, and local environmental and historic preservation laws and regulations. The Department will engage in a thorough review of applications to identify and mitigate environmental and historic preservation risks.

The responsibilities will include:
Advising on the drafting and implementation of policies, procedures, templates, and forms to govern the environmental review and compliance processes associated with federal financial assistance applications, including helping to draft standard language and advise on strategic approaches to environmental compliance and risk assessment.
Providing direct legal support on a range of time-sensitive legal and compliance issues under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), the Endangered Species Act (ESA), the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA), and other requirements.
Reviewing individual environmental documents, including NEPA documents and consultation or permitting requests, applications, or assessments, agency determinations, and internal and external-facing documents with broad applicability.
Advising on inter and intra-agency coordination and relevant consultations and engaging with applicants and applicant counsel.
Assisting in developing terms and conditions related to environmental and historic preservation compliance to be included in funding agreements, and advising on specific mitigation issues;
Advising on the monitoring and enforcement of environmental and historic preservation terms and conditions after execution;
Advising and commenting on relevant draft and final rules, regulations, and other priority Federal permitting or environmental reform requests; and
Advising on a range of legal matters that could arise in connection with environmental and historic preservation compliance issues throughout the application, award, and post-award periods, including matters related to litigation.
As the bulk of the work in these programs transitions from the transaction phase to the asset management phase, the incumbent's workload will shift to other priorities throughout the Department. Specifically, the incumbent would be responsible for advising on Department compliance with any required Federal environmental statutes, regulations, and other mandates (including historic preservation mandates), and advising on federal, state, local and tribal permitting responsibilities required for the Department's programs. In performing these activities, the incumbent is expected to help to identify environmental and historic preservation risks and potential mitigation opportunities in applications; support and advise on coordination and cooperation with other Federal agencies, states, tribes, and stakeholders; and handle other environmental legal issues that arise in the execution of the Department's programs.
