Opportunity Summary:
This opportunity, titled "Data Synthesis Least Tern and Snowy Plover Population MCB, Camp Pendleton, CA," was a discretionary federal funding announcement issued by the Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NAVFAC). It sought one cooperative agreement to support natural resources work at Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton in California, specifically focused on two coastal bird species of high conservation interest: the California Least Tern and the Western Snowy Plover. The core purpose was not to start a brand-new field study from scratch, but to pull together, organize, analyze, and interpret existing information that had already been collected over time on the base, and then translate that synthesis into a practical, comprehensive management plan.
The stated primary objective was the creation of a management plan generated from synthesizing all pre-existing data related to the analysis and management of Least Tern and Snowy Plover populations on Camp Pendleton. In practice, this kind of project typically involves locating and consolidating monitoring datasets, survey results, nest and productivity records, habitat and disturbance information, predator management records, and any relevant reports or prior assessments. The end product is intended to be a single, coherent plan that decision-makers can use to guide on-the-ground conservation and compliance actions, while also accounting for the operational realities of a major military installation.
The funding instrument was a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates that the federal agency expected to have substantial involvement during the project, such as coordinating access to information, providing technical input, or working closely on planning and review. The activity category was listed as Natural Resources, and the CFDA number associated with the announcement was 12.300, Basic and Applied Scientific Research. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants were not required to contribute non-federal funds to be eligible or competitive.
Financially, the opportunity anticipated a single award with an estimated total funding amount of $96,506, and an award ceiling listed at $96,505. The posting date was August 20, 2009, with a creation date of August 31, 2009. The original closing date was August 28, 2009, and the current closing date was September 2, 2009, with a note clarifying that there was no change to the September 2, 2009 deadline at 1600 hours, and that the timeline note related to the upload of informational reports. The archive date was September 27, 2009, indicating the announcement was no longer active after that point.
Eligibility was limited to a set of organization types suited to scientific and conservation planning work: private institutions of higher education, public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, and nonprofit organizations holding 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education). In other words, the opportunity was geared toward universities and qualified nonprofit research or conservation entities with the capacity to manage and synthesize datasets, produce technical analyses, and deliver a defensible, actionable management plan for sensitive species on federal property.
