Opportunity Summary:
The Injured Wildlife Research and Rescue, San Diego Navy Lands, San Diego, CA opportunity was a discretionary cooperative agreement offered by the Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NAVFAC) to support practical wildlife response work paired with applied research on Navy installations in the San Diego area. The central goal was twofold: first, to actively rescue and arrange transportation for injured, ill, or orphaned wildlife found on or associated with these installations, and second, to study and identify the likely causes of those injuries so the Navy can better understand recurring risks and potentially reduce future incidents. The scope specifically excluded marine mammals, meaning the effort focused on terrestrial wildlife and birds rather than seals, sea lions, dolphins, or whales.
The award was structured as a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates a more collaborative relationship between the federal sponsor and the recipient than a standard grant, often involving coordination, reporting, and shared involvement in implementation. Work was expected to be conducted in compliance with all applicable federal and state wildlife laws and regulations, and the program emphasized appropriate handling and lawful transfer of animals. A key operational requirement was the rescue, pick-up, and transport of approximately 100 to 150 birds and other animals to licensed wildlife rehabilitation agencies or organizations. The performance window was up to twelve months from the date of award, but the project could end earlier if the full budget was expended (in other words, performance was limited by either time or the total funds, whichever came first).
Funding for the project was modest, with an estimated total funding amount and award ceiling of $6,960, and the Navy anticipated making a single award. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants were not required to contribute their own funds as a condition of eligibility. The opportunity fell under the Natural Resources activity category and referenced CFDA 12.300 (Basic and Applied Scientific Research), reflecting its mix of field response and applied investigation into injury causes.
Eligible applicants included private institutions of higher education, public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, and nonprofit organizations with IRS 501(c)(3) status (excluding universities when applying under the nonprofit category, since universities were separately listed as eligible). The solicitation was posted on March 10, 2012, and proposals were due by 4:00 PM local Pacific time on April 11, 2012, with the opportunity archived on May 11, 2012. For administrative or access questions about the full announcement, the listed point of contact was Linda Protocollo, Contract Specialist and Cooperative Agreement Administrator, reachable by phone at 619-532-1159.
