Negotiation
began in 2002 and September 2004 NC A&T
State University celebrated  the
sighing of Memorandum of Understanding
with the U.S. Department of Agriculture
(USDA) with the opening of the National
Resources Conservation Services Eastern
Regional Technology Center whose service
area consisted of 24 states and the
Caribbean area. The Greensboro Center
was also home to the remote  sensing
lab. The Memorandum of Understanding
says A&T has a working farm with modern
facilities and farm equipment. NRCS will
benefit from the use of this farm by
being able to provide hands-on training
to NRCS employees. NRCS can sponsor
field studies that can serve as  demonstrations
to both NRCS trainees and also local and
regional farmers. A
negotiated action under Solicitation
5NC0075 resulted in a non-competitive
award to locate the USDA Natural
Resources Conversation Service's East
National Technical Center and East
Remote Sensing Laboratory on the North
Carolina A&T State University Millennium
Campus. |
