Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "California Red Legged Frog Surveys and Pond Habitat Assessment - Concord, California" (Funding Opportunity Number N62473-08-R-FROGS), was issued by the Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NAVFAC) as a discretionary cooperative agreement under the Natural Resources funding activity category. The work focuses on conducting surveys for the California red-legged frog and evaluating pond habitat conditions at Naval Weapons Station Seal Beach, Detachment Concord, in Concord, California. In practical terms, the award is aimed at supporting field-based biological monitoring and habitat assessment activities that help the Navy understand the presence, status, and habitat quality for a protected amphibian species on or near a military installation, which can inform compliance and management decisions.
The opportunity anticipated a single award, with an estimated total funding amount of $8,247 and an award ceiling set at the same amount, indicating a small, narrowly scoped project rather than a large multi-year program. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning the selected recipient would not be required to contribute additional funds to meet the project budget. The CFDA number associated with the announcement is 12.300 (Basic and Applied Scientific Research), which signals that while the work is applied and site-specific, it is still treated as scientific research and technical field investigation in the federal assistance framework.
Eligibility was limited to specific organization types: nonprofits with IRS 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education) as well as private institutions of higher education and public or state-controlled institutions of higher education. This mix suggests the Navy was looking for qualified biologists, ecologists, or academic research groups with relevant expertise in amphibian surveys, wetland/pond habitat evaluation, and likely familiarity with protected species protocols and reporting expectations common to federal natural resources work.
The posting and timeline were short and tightly defined. The opportunity was posted and created on June 17, 2008, with an original and current closing date of June 25, 2008. The archive date was July 25, 2008, meaning the announcement was only actively open for about a week before closing, and then it was later archived. Applicants would have needed to move quickly to assemble a responsive application within that window, which is typical of some small, mission-driven cooperative agreements tied to specific field seasons or immediate compliance needs.
For questions or issues accessing the full announcement electronically, the listed point of contact was Joseph Brown, Contract Specialist, reachable by phone at (619) 532-1266. The announcement also notes a "Cooperative Agreement POC," indicating that beyond contracting or administrative questions, there may have been an additional program or technical point of contact for the scientific and fieldwork aspects of the project, although the name is not provided in the excerpted details.
