The Center for Natural Resources Management on Military Lands
Established in September 2022 as the Army’s first IMCOM-level Regional Intergovernmental Support Agreement (R-IGSA), Auburn University’s partnership with IMCOM serves as the foundation for the Army’s regional R-IGSA program. Originally supporting eight installations, the agreement has expanded to all IMCOM installations, reflecting the Army’s confidence in Auburn’s ability to deliver high-quality, mission focused services.
