Opportunity Summary:

This grant opportunity, titled "Fish Blockage removal and stream Restoration," was issued by the Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NAVFAC) as a discretionary funding opportunity focused on natural resources work at Naval Support Facility Indian Head in Maryland. The project described is the removal of non-tidal in-stream fish blockages along with stream restoration actions, which typically means identifying and fixing barriers such as undersized or perched culverts, failed crossings, small dams, or other obstructions that prevent fish and other aquatic organisms from moving up and downstream. In addition to removing or correcting the blockage itself, the "stream restoration" component generally implies follow-on work to stabilize the channel, improve habitat and water quality, and return the stream to a more natural and functional condition so that the connectivity gains are durable over time.

The funding instrument for this opportunity is a cooperative agreement, which usually indicates that the federal agency expects to be actively involved during the project rather than simply providing funds through a standard grant. The activity category is listed as natural resources, and the associated CFDA number is 12.300, identified here as "Basic and Applied Scientific Research." The announcement anticipated making a single award, meaning applicants would be competing for one funded project rather than a portfolio of multiple smaller awards. There was no cost-sharing or matching requirement stated, so applicants were not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of eligibility, although voluntary leverage is sometimes viewed favorably depending on the evaluation criteria in the full announcement.

Eligibility is described as unrestricted, meaning the competition was open to any type of entity, subject to any additional conditions that may have been spelled out in the full notice. In practical terms, that kind of eligibility often includes universities, nonprofit organizations, state and local governments, tribes, and private entities, as long as they can meet federal assistance requirements and any site access, security, or technical capability needs tied to working on an active naval facility. Because the work is located on Naval Support Facility Indian Head, applicants would also typically need to be prepared for coordination with installation personnel, compliance with base requirements, and adherence to environmental review and permitting processes that apply to in-water and streambank activities.

The opportunity was posted and created on August 26, 2014, with an original and current closing date of September 12, 2014. It was later archived on October 12, 2014, indicating the application window has long since closed and the listing is maintained for recordkeeping rather than active submission. For applicants who had trouble accessing the full announcement at the time, the listed point of contact was Brenda Uyeda, Contracting Officer, reachable by phone at 202-685-8052, with an email address referenced but not included in the text you provided.
