Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity, titled "Sensitive Plants Research and Implementation, Naval Base Point Loma (NBPL), San Diego, CA," is a discretionary Cooperative Agreement offered by the Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NAVFAC) under CFDA 12.300 (Basic and Applied Scientific Research). It is structured to support a focused, one-year effort that combines field research with on-the-ground management actions to better understand, maintain, and strengthen sensitive plant populations located on Naval Base Point Loma in San Diego, California.
The core purpose is to assess population trends and ecological requirements for three sensitive taxa present at NBPL: Chorizanthe orcuttiana, Piperia cooperi, and Corethrogyne filaginifolia var. incana. The project is intended to run for one full year or growing season, during which the awardee would monitor existing populations and evaluate the surrounding habitat conditions that influence species persistence. The expectation is not only to collect data, but to analyze results in a way that improves understanding of each species current status on the installation and clarifies what site conditions, disturbance factors, and habitat features are most important to their survival and recovery.
A major component of the work is implementation oriented. In addition to research and monitoring, the project calls for erosion control and vegetation management in and around the areas supporting the current populations. These actions are meant to reduce threats and improve habitat quality during the same one-year period, with an emphasis on maintaining existing occurrences and promoting their continued viability. Because this is issued as a Cooperative Agreement, NAVFAC typically anticipates substantial involvement or coordination during planning and execution, reflecting a more collaborative relationship than a standard grant.
The opportunity also includes an applied propagation and restoration element. The awardee is expected to experiment with propagation and transplantation of the sensitive species using the on-site greenhouse at NBPL. The deliverable emphasis goes beyond simply attempting propagation; the project is expected to culminate in specific, detailed protocols and guidelines for successful propagation and transplantation of each of the three species at this location. In other words, NAVFAC is looking for practical, site-relevant methods that can be repeated and scaled for future management, informed by the results of the year of field observations and greenhouse trials.
Funding is set up for a single anticipated award, with an estimated total funding amount of $121,935 and an award ceiling of $121,935. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement. Eligible applicants are limited to public and state-controlled institutions of higher education and nonprofit organizations holding 501(c)(3) status (excluding higher education institutions, which are already covered under the first eligibility category). The announcement was posted July 27, 2013, and proposals were due by 4:00 PM local time on August 26, 2013, with the opportunity archived September 25, 2013.
