Opportunity Summary:
The funding opportunity titled "Care and Rehabilitation of Injured, Ill and Orphaned Migratory Birds and Other Terrestrial Wildlife, San Diego, Ca." (Funding Opportunity Number N62473 15 2 0008) was a discretionary cooperative agreement offered by the Naval Facilities Engineering Command. It focused on supporting on-the-ground wildlife rehabilitation services in the San Diego, California area, specifically for migratory birds and other terrestrial wildlife that are injured, ill, or orphaned. Marine mammals were explicitly excluded from the scope, so the work centered on land-based wildlife species and birds rather than seals, sea lions, dolphins, or whales.
The stated purpose of the cooperative agreement was threefold: first, to ensure that affected animals receive appropriate care and rehabilitation through a licensed wildlife rehabilitation agency or organization; second, to identify causes of injury and mortality when that information can be determined (for example, trauma, predation, disease, poisoning, or human-related causes such as vehicle strikes); and third, to provide accountability to the Navy by reporting back the outcome for each animal handled under the agreement. In practical terms, this means the awardee would be expected to document intakes, treatments, diagnoses where possible, and final dispositions such as release, transfer, long-term placement if allowed, or euthanasia when warranted under accepted veterinary and wildlife rehabilitation standards and applicable laws.
This opportunity was categorized under Natural Resources and tied to CFDA number 12.300 (Basic and Applied Scientific Research), indicating it sat within a broader federal assistance framework that can include research and applied field activities, even though the core emphasis here was service delivery and incident outcome tracking. Only one award was anticipated, with an estimated total funding amount of $7,490. The award ceiling was also $7,490, with no stated minimum award amount (award floor of $0). There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants were not required to commit non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the award.
Eligibility was described as unrestricted in the sense that any type of entity could apply, provided it met the applicable requirements referenced in the announcement. More specifically, the notice stated that any potential cooperator qualifying under DoDGARS 34 and 2 CFR 200 could apply. These references point to the Department of Defense grants and agreements regulations and the uniform federal administrative requirements for grants, respectively, which generally govern financial management, internal controls, allowable costs, reporting, and audit expectations. Even though eligibility was broad, the work itself required a licensed wildlife rehabilitation agency or organization operating in compliance with state and federal laws, which effectively narrows practical eligibility to organizations with the proper permits, facilities, and expertise to legally receive and treat wildlife (particularly migratory birds, which are federally protected).
The timeline for the opportunity was straightforward and relatively short. It was posted and created on April 1, 2015, with an original and current closing date of May 1, 2015. The listing was archived on May 31, 2015. Applicants needing the full announcement or experiencing access issues were directed to contact the Navy contract specialist listed in the notice: Reagan Pablo, phone 619-532-2090, email reagan.s.pablo@navy.mil.
