Opportunity Summary:

The opportunity titled "Erosion Control and Habitat Enhancement NBVC Point Mugu" (Funding Opportunity Number N62473 15 2 0005) is a U.S. Navy funding announcement issued by the Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NAVFAC) to find a qualified partner for an erosion control and habitat-related effort supporting Naval Base Ventura County (NBVC). The announcement is structured as a Request for Statements of Interest (RSOI), meaning the Navy is using submitted capability/interest statements to identify and select a potential investigator or organization to carry out the work under a cooperative agreement rather than a traditional procurement contract. The overall purpose is to provide professional and technical support to the Navy's natural resources responsibilities in a way that also supports the installation's military mission.

The project focus is tied to NBVC programs addressing erosion control and "special species" management, with specific reference to San Nicolas Island (SNI). Work is intended to help the Navy successfully implement its Integrated Natural Resources Management Plan (INRMP), which is the required planning framework used on many military installations to manage natural resources while ensuring continued mission readiness. In practical terms, projects under this type of umbrella typically involve planning, field assessments, design and implementation support, monitoring, and reporting connected to erosion control measures and habitat enhancement actions, especially where sensitive species or protected habitats may be affected. The announcement notes that additional details are contained in an attached statement of work as well as terms and conditions, which would define the exact tasks, deliverables, timelines, and performance expectations.

The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, categorized as a discretionary opportunity within the Natural Resources activity area. Cooperative agreements generally indicate that the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement in the project during performance (for example, coordination, technical direction, review of deliverables, and alignment with installation management needs). The legal authority cited is 16 USC 670c-1, part of the Sikes Act, which is the primary statute guiding conservation and natural resources management on Department of Defense lands, including the development and execution of INRMPs.

Approximately $117,646 in total funding is expected to be available, and the announcement anticipates making one award. The award ceiling is listed as $117,646 and the award floor is $0, with no cost sharing or matching required. The CFDA number associated with the opportunity is 12.300, labeled "Basic and Applied Scientific Research," which signals that the work may involve applied science elements such as data collection, analysis, and monitoring tied to management decisions, even if the end use is operational resource stewardship on a military installation.

Eligibility is described as unrestricted, meaning the opportunity is open to any type of entity, as long as the applicant qualifies under DoD grants and cooperative agreement regulations (DoDGARS Part 34) and the federal uniform administrative requirements in 2 CFR 200, and complies with the attached terms and conditions. The posting date and creation date are May 11, 2015, with a closing date of June 11, 2015, and an archive date of July 11, 2015, indicating this was a time-limited solicitation window. For access issues or questions about the full announcement, the listed point of contact is Reagan Pablo, Contract Specialist, at 619-532-2090 or reagan.s.pablo@navy.mil.
