Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "Bat Surveys and Monitoring on Naval Weapons Station Seal Beach Detachment Fallbrook, CA," is a discretionary funding announcement from the Naval Facilities Engineering Command for a single cooperative agreement award focused on natural resources work. The project is centered on designing and carrying out a scientifically credible bat survey at Naval Weapons Station (NWS) Seal Beach Detachment Fallbrook in Fallbrook, California. The intent is to use accepted field and analytical methods to locate bat use areas on the installation and identify bat species that may be present either seasonally or year-round. The work is expected to align with the goals of the October 2006 Memorandum of Understanding between the Department of Defense and Bat Conservation International, reflecting an emphasis on responsible stewardship and conservation practices on military lands.
The core deliverable is a set of survey results and data analyses that clearly describe bat activity across the base. This includes documenting species richness (which species are present), identifying and mapping roost locations, highlighting important foraging areas, and developing population estimates where feasible. Beyond simply cataloging bats, the project is meant to translate findings into practical management recommendations. Those recommendations should focus on maintaining and improving habitat quality for bats using the installation while also reducing the potential for conflicts with ongoing military mission activities. A specific requirement is to evaluate where bat presence and mission operations may overlap and to propose solutions that protect bat resources without compromising operational needs, essentially balancing compliance and conservation with day-to-day mission requirements.
From an administrative standpoint, the opportunity was posted on April 14, 2012, with proposals due by 4:00 PM local time on May 15, 2012, and it was archived on June 14, 2012. The estimated total funding for the project is $40,494, which is also listed as the award ceiling, suggesting the agency anticipated funding one project at or near that amount. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement. Eligible applicants include 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations (excluding institutions of higher education) as well as private and public/state-controlled institutions of higher education, indicating the agency was open to proposals from both conservation-oriented nonprofits and academic entities with relevant wildlife research capacity. The CFDA number is 12.300, associated with basic and applied scientific research. The listed point of contact for access issues with the full announcement is Linda Protocollo, Contract Specialist and Cooperative Agreement Administrator, reachable by phone at 619-532-1159.
