DISCUSSION
The City was selected as a subrecipient for the USDA Inflation Reduction Act Urban & Community Forestry (“USDA IRA UCF”) grant in the amount of $1,000,000. Prior to the commencement of work, the City must enter into a subrecipient agreement with the designated national pass-through partner – GreenLatinos. The subrecipient agreement will allow the City to commence work under the USDA IRA UCF grant and develop a comprehensive UFMP, plant five hundred (500) trees, and partner with a Bellflower-based nonprofit organization to maintain the newly planted trees.

GreenLatinos will provide administrative support and guidance to the City as we develop and implement the grant activities.

The City will start with the development of a UFMP that will result in a strategic document that outlines the vision, goals and actions for managing and enhancing the tree canopy and green spaces throughout the City. The plan will assess the current inventory, provide strategies for maintenance and growth of trees, identify locations where additional trees could be planted and help develop policies to protect and preserve trees. The plan will be put together by a consultant working with City staff and will include community engagement and education. The UFMP will assist in realizing optimal public benefits of trees on the City’s streets, while providing permanent equitable green space accessibility for our residents. The UFMP will take approximately fifteen (15) months to complete.

Upon completion of the UFMP, the City will implement a tree planting program which will include a total of five hundred (500) newly planted trees by the end of the grant term. These newly planted trees will enhance air quality, mitigate climate effects, and improve the visual appeal of our neighborhoods. All newly proposed trees under this grant must be planted in the City’s disadvantaged census tracts as identified by the Climate and Economic Justice Screening Tool (“CEJST”) and the Environmental Protection Agency’s Environmental Justice Screening and Mapping Tool (“EPA EJScreen Tool”). All five hundred (500) proposed tree plants will be strategically placed to ensure equitable accessibility, increased biodiversity, and resilience of the trees as determined by the UFMP. Finally, the City will partner with a Bellflower based nonprofit organization to help maintain the newly planted trees. This partnership will promote expanded collaboration and training within the field of green space maintenance and improve workforce development for low-income Bellflower residents.

This agreement will be governed by the laws of the District of Columbia and the venue for contract disputes will be in Washington D.C. In the event of a contract dispute, the City will need to retain local counsel in Washington D.C.

City of Bellflower Urban Forestry Management Plan & Tree Planting and Maintenance Project Project Narrative
The residents in the City of Bellflower (“City”) suffer from inequitable access to public green space, high exposure to fine particulate matter 2.5 (“PM 2.5”), high flood risks, and low income and work force development. The Climate and Economic Justice Screening Tool (“CEJST”) identifies six (6) of the City’s census tracts as disadvantaged communities. The City’s identified disadvantaged communities rank as high as 98th percentile in harmful PM 2.5, 95th percentile in high flood risk, 94th percentile in lack of open green space, 90th percentile in unemployment, and 80th percentile in low income. Furthermore, the Environmental Protection Agency’s Environmental Justice Screening and Mapping Tool’s (“EPA EJScreen Tool”) Socioeconomic Indicators Data indicate that the entire City is in the 99th percentile in particulate matter, 85th percentile in diesel particulate matter, 95th percentile in hazardous waste proximity, 95th percentile in wastewater discharge and 93rd percentile in flood risks (See Exhibit A – “EPA EJScreen Community Report”).

The City of Bellflower aims to protect residents with increased canopy, improved air quality and decreased heat-related hazards. The City will partner with a qualified vendor (“Consultant”) to develop a comprehensive urban forestry management plan (“UFMP”) that will promote an equitable, sustainable, and reliable means of managing the City’s green space for over 77,000 Bellflower residents. Moreover, the UFMP will assist in realizing optimal public benefits of trees on the City’s streets, while providing permanent equitable accessibility for those in our disadvantaged communities. The UFMP will promote efficient, cost-effective management to reduce the public hazards caused by the PM 2.5 in the air, floods, and miscellaneous expenses caused by improper tree selection, planting, and maintenance – especially in our disadvantaged communities as identified by the CEJST.

Concurrent with the development of the UFMP, the City will select a qualified contractor to implement a tree planting program which will conclude with a total of five hundred (500) newly planted trees by the end of the grant term. The newly planted trees will reduce the high concentration of fine PM 2.5 in the air that poses detrimental health hazards for our residents in the disadvantaged communities (95-98th percentile in PM 2.5 per CEJST). Under the conditions of this grant, all five hundred (500) proposed tree plants will be strategically placed in the City’s disadvantaged census tracts as identified by the CEJST and the EPA EJScreen Tool. The goal is equitable accessibility, increased biodiversity, health, and resilience of trees in our disadvantaged community which make up nearly one-third of the City’s population. The UFMP and the tree planting and maintenance initiative will foster resilience, restoration, and sustainability for the disadvantaged communities in Bellflower facing extreme climate change challenges. The City strongly believes that while residents in the disadvantaged communities will benefit most from the UFMP and the tree planting initiative, the entire City of Bellflower will thrive because of the equitable practices.

Subsequently, the City will request formal bids for the maintenance of the five hundred (500) newly planted trees; The selected partner (“Contractor”) will be a local community-based organization that will promote expanded collaboration and training within the field of green space maintenance and improve workforce development for low-income Bellflower residents. The selected partner(s) will enter into a maintenance agreement with the City to maintain the newly planted trees for the term of the grant.

Program participants are the field representatives that will be tasked with the maintenance work of the newly planted trees. Program participants will ensure frequent monitoring (checking tree health, soil moisture, mulch) and watering of the trees.

Newly planted trees require extensive care during their first year; therefore, new trees ( 1 year) will be watered twice per month and monitored every two (2) months. Treegator bags (“Treegator”) are critical to the survival of arterial trees with no irrigation supply as they provide deep water saturation with no run-off in the least amount of time necessary.

As a part of the tree maintenance component of this project, program participants will also have the opportunity to learn from certified arborists on several key areas of knowledge including but not limited to:
a.Tree Biology
b.Tree Identification and Selection
c.Soil Management
d.Installation and Establishment
e.Pruning
f.Diagnosis and Treatment
g.Trees and Construction
h.Tree Risk
i.Safe Work Practices
j.Urban Forestry
k.Additional areas of knowledge as deemed necessary
The City strongly believes that by maintaining the health of City-owned trees, the City is promoting equitable accessibility, increased biodiversity, and the health and resilience of trees in our disadvantaged communities. The maintenance plan serves as a catalyst towards fostering resilience, restoration, and sustainability of the green space in the City of Bellflower and provides new skills to the maintenance program participants to continue their work in the field of green space maintenance. The City will dedicate the entire award amount towards tree planting and associated activities to increase equitable green space, reduce pollution and potential health hazards, and promote workforce development in our disadvantaged communities. The UFMP, tree planting initiative, and maintenance plan will synergistically serve as the primary tools for long-term equitable access to the urban forestry ecosystem. Hence, we are embracing a proactive approach in advocating for an equitable forestry ecosystem and mitigating economic loss due to climate-related disasters. The City will promote workforce development in disadvantaged communities by engaging a local Bellflower-based non-profit organization (501c3) to uplift communities and provide employment opportunities for Bellflower residents living in poverty.

WHISTLEBLOWER NOTICE
Whistleblowers perform an important service to USDA and the public when they come forward with what they reasonably believe to be evidence of wrongdoing. They should never be subject to reprisal for doing so. Federal law protects federal employees as well as personal services contractors and employees of federal contractors, subcontractors, grantees, and subgrantees against reprisal for whistleblowing. USDA bears the responsibility to ensure that nothing in a non-disclosure agreement which a contractor, subcontractor, grantee, or subgrantee requires their employees to sign should be interpreted as limiting their ability to provide information to the Office of Inspector General (OIG).
41 USC section 4712 requires the head of each executive agency to ensure that its contractors inform their workers in writing of the rights and remedies under the statute. Accordingly, it is illegal for a personal services contractor or an employee of a federal contractor, subcontractor, grantee, or subgrantee to be discharged, demoted, or otherwise discriminated against for making a protected whistleblower disclosure. In this context, these categories of individuals are whistleblowers who disclose information that the individual reasonably believes is evidence of one of the following:
○Gross mismanagement of a federal contract or grant;
○A gross waste of federal funds;
○An abuse of authority relating to a federal contract or grant; ○A substantial and specific danger to public health or safety; or ○A violation of law, rule, or regulation related to a federal contract (including the competition for or negotiation of a contract) or grant.

To be protected under 41 USC section 4712, the disclosure must be made to one of the following:
○A Member of Congress, or a representative of a committee of Congress;
○The OIG;
○The Government Accountability Office (GAO);

○ A Federal employee responsible for contract or grant oversight or management at USDA;
○ An otherwise authorized official at USDA or other law enforcement agency;
○ A court or grand jury; or
○ A management official or other employee of the contractor, subcontractor, or grantee who has the responsibility to investigate, discover, or address misconduct.

Under 41 USC section4712, personal services contractors as well as employees of contractors, subcontractors, grantees, or subgrantees may file a complaint with OIG, who will investigate the matter unless they determine that the complaint is frivolous, fails to allege a violation of the prohibition against whistleblower reprisal, or has been addressed in another proceeding.

OIG’s investigation is then presented to the head of executive agency who evaluates the facts of the investigation and can order the contractor, subcontractor, grantee, or subgrantee to take remedial action, such as reinstatement or back pay.

Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Subpart 3.903, Whistleblower Protections for Contractor Employees, Policy, prohibits government contractors from retaliating against a contract worker for making a protected disclosure related to the contract. FAR Subpart 3.909-1 prohibits the Government from using funds for a contract with an entity that requires its employees or subcontractors to sign internal confidentiality statements prohibiting or restricting disclosures of fraud, waste, or abuse to designated persons. This prohibition does not contravene agreements pertaining to classified information. The regulation also requires contracting officers to insert FAR clause 52.203-17, Contractor Employee Whistleblower Rights and Requirement to Inform Employees of Whistleblower Rights, in all solicitations and contracts that exceed the Simplified Acquisition Threshold as defined in FAR Subpart 3.908. This clause requires notification to contractor employees that they are subject to the whistleblower rights and remedies referenced in 41 USC section 4712.
