FAIRFAX, Va. (AP) — Government services contractor ICF International has been awarded a $23.5 million contract to support the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Climate Change Division.

The Fairfax-based company announced the five-year re-compete contract on Monday.

ICF will work with the agency to provide technical and outreach support services, including analysis and development of climate change science, economics, technology and policy.

Company officials say the EPA’s programs will continue to shoulder the responsibilities to further reduce greenhouse gas emissions and help communities and ecosystems become more resilient to the effects of climate change.
