Opportunity Summary:
The CLT WSP Nest Monitoring, Naval Base Coronado, CA opportunity is a U.S. Navy cooperative agreement administered through the Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NAVFAC) focused on natural resources monitoring and reporting for two protected coastal bird species on Navy-owned and Navy-leased lands in Coronado, California. The main purpose is to provide Naval Base Coronado with a detailed, seasonally relevant accounting of the presence and activities of the federally endangered California Least Tern (CLT) and the federally threatened Western Snowy Plover (WSP). The work centers on documenting key life-history behaviors and habitat use, especially breeding, nesting, and foraging, so the installation can meet environmental compliance obligations and manage mission activities alongside sensitive species protection.
The geographic scope is explicitly tied to major Navy facilities and training areas in the Coronado region. The focus areas named in the announcement are Naval Amphibious Base Coronado (NAB Coronado), also referred to as Silver Strand Training Complex North (SSTC N); Naval Air Station North Island (NASNI); and Silver Strand Training Complex South (SSTC S), formerly known as the Naval Radio Receiving Facility (NRRF). In practical terms, applicants are expected to conduct monitoring and produce reporting that reflects conditions and bird activity across these sites, rather than treating the effort as a single-location survey.
Beyond routine nest and activity monitoring, the agreement also calls for investigations and preventative measures related to predation pressure on the listed species. The Navy specifically highlights potential or observed impacts from Gull-billed Terns (Sterna nilotica), Peregrine Falcons (Falco peregrinus), and Burrowing Owls (Athene cunicularia). This means the work is not limited to counting nests or documenting occupancy; it also includes evaluating predator-related risks and supporting actions intended to reduce predation impacts where feasible and appropriate, consistent with applicable wildlife regulations and site management constraints. The end product implied by the announcement is a report (or set of reports) that synthesizes monitoring results and management-relevant findings for Navy decision-making.
Funding is offered as a discretionary cooperative agreement, with an estimated total funding amount of $432,800 and an award ceiling of $432,800, indicating the Navy anticipated making a single award for the full amount (Expected Awards: 1). There is no cost sharing or matching requirement. The assistance listing is associated with CFDA 12.300, Basic and Applied Scientific Research, aligning the effort with applied field biology, ecological monitoring, and management support rather than construction or purely academic research.
Eligibility is limited to nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education in that nonprofit category) as well as private institutions of higher education and public/state-controlled institutions of higher education. The opportunity timeline shows it was posted on December 18, 2010, with proposals due by 4:00 PM Pacific Time. While an earlier closing date is referenced (January 18, 2011), the current closing date is January 26, 2011 at 1600 PST, and the amendment language notes that Amendment 2 did not change the due date, but clarified requirements in Section VII, Specific Requirements, paragraph B.6. The archive date listed is February 17, 2011, indicating the solicitation is no longer active.
For administrative and access issues related to the full announcement, the listed point of contact is Linda Protocollo, Contract Specialist/Cooperative Agreement Administrator, reachable by phone at 619-532-1159.
