Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "Historic Preservation of Adobe Ranch Houses at Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, California" is a discretionary federal funding announcement issued by the Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NAVFAC). It focuses on cultural resources work, specifically the historic preservation of adobe ranch house structures located on Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton in California. The funding mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which generally means the agency expects to have substantial involvement during the project rather than simply issuing funds and stepping back. In practical terms, applicants should anticipate coordination with NAVFAC and base stakeholders throughout planning and execution to ensure the preservation work aligns with federal requirements and installation needs.
This opportunity was posted and created on December 11, 2007, with an original and final closing date of December 19, 2007. The archive date is January 18, 2008, indicating the opportunity is no longer open. The announcement anticipates a single award, with an estimated total funding amount of $500,000. The listed award ceiling is $9,000, which appears inconsistent with the estimated total funding; in some older postings, ceilings can reflect a line-entry error or a misapplied field from a templated form, so applicants typically would have needed to verify the true maximum amount in the full announcement or directly with the contact person. The program is identified under CFDA number 12.300, labeled "Basic and Applied Scientific Research," even though the activity category explanation indicates "Cultural Resources." That combination suggests the administrative CFDA umbrella may cover a range of research and preservation-related efforts, while the specific project itself is grounded in historic preservation outcomes.
Eligible applicants include private institutions of higher education, public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, and nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding higher education institutions in that nonprofit category). No cost sharing or matching is required, meaning applicants were not obligated to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of award, which can lower barriers for qualified preservation organizations and academic units with relevant expertise. Because it is a cooperative agreement and the subject is preservation of historic adobe ranch houses, a competitive application would typically be expected to demonstrate strong technical capacity in adobe preservation, documentation methods, treatment planning, and compliance with applicable historic preservation standards and federal cultural resource laws, along with an ability to operate on an active military installation and follow security, safety, and coordination requirements.
The funding opportunity number is N62473 08 R CPEN. The agency contact listed for assistance, especially for accessing the full announcement electronically, is Joseph Brown, Contract Specialist and Cooperative Agreement Administrator, reachable by phone at (619) 532-1266.
