It was developed by Conor Fennessy, a staff member in #ElonMusk’s #DOGE, acc/to 2 people w/direct knowledge of the plan. Similar lists of grant eliminations are being developed in other parts of the Dept of the #Interior….

At the #NPS, the DOGE plan proposes eliminating #ScientistsInParks, a popular program that places #students & early-career #scientists at natural & historic landmarks to help protect #ecosystems.

The #Trump admin has earmarked dozens of #NationalPark Service [#NPS] #grants for elimination, including several that aim to protect #PublicLands from the effects of #ClimateChange, acc/to an internal agency document detailing the plans.

A spreadsheet of grants likely to be canceled claims the cuts could *save* $26 million by canceling grants to #universities, state #historic #preservation offices, #tribes & #YouthCorps.
