Opportunity Summary:
The funding opportunity titled "SHORELINE STABILIZATION OF PHASE III (REACHES II, III AND V) OF THE SHORELINE MANAGEMENT PLANT AT NSF INDIAN HEAD, MARYLAND" is a U.S. government solicitation released by NAVFAC Washington DC focused on natural resources work tied to shoreline management and erosion control at the Naval Support Facility (NSF) Indian Head in Maryland. The opportunity is structured around implementing Phase III of an existing Shoreline Management Plan, specifically covering the segments identified as Reaches II, III, and V. While the public synopsis points applicants to an attached Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) for the full technical scope, the title and activity category indicate that the core objective is to stabilize shoreline areas that are likely experiencing erosion, bank failure, or other shoreline degradation, using planned, engineered, and/or nature-based stabilization measures consistent with a previously developed management plan.
This solicitation was issued as a mandatory opportunity and uses a Cooperative Agreement as the funding instrument. That choice is important because it generally signals a relationship where the federal government expects substantial involvement during performance, such as collaboration on technical decisions, review of deliverables, coordination with installation requirements, or integration with other on-base environmental and infrastructure priorities. The funding activity category is listed as Natural Resources, which aligns with shoreline stabilization as an environmental stewardship and resource protection effort, often involving habitat considerations, sediment management, water quality protection, and resilience of coastal or riverine edges adjacent to federal facilities.
Only one award was expected, and the funding amount was effectively fixed: both the award ceiling and award floor are listed as $10,278,000. In practical terms, that indicates the government anticipated making a single award at approximately that total value for Phase III work, rather than multiple smaller awards or a range of possible project sizes. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, so applicants were not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of eligibility or competitiveness, at least as reflected in the summary data.
Eligibility was open to a set of non-federal entities, specifically non-profits, universities, and state and local governments, with the listing in the system summarized as "Others" and clarified in the eligibility text. That combination is common for cooperative agreements, particularly where the government may be seeking specialized scientific, technical, or environmental expertise, or where a public entity or academic institution may be well-positioned to manage a complex shoreline project that includes assessment, design support, monitoring, and adaptive management. The opportunity is also associated with CFDA number 12.300, "Basic and Applied Scientific Research," which suggests the effort may include applied research components, monitoring, data collection, performance evaluation of stabilization methods, or other scientific elements beyond straightforward construction. Even when the end goal is a physical shoreline fix, many shoreline programs include baseline surveys, modeling, ecological assessments, and post-project monitoring to verify stability and environmental outcomes.
The timeline shows it was posted and created on August 18, 2008, with an original and current closing date of September 17, 2008, and an archive date of October 17, 2008. This means it was a time-limited competition with about a one-month window for submissions, after which the opportunity was archived. Applicants at the time would have needed to rely on the attached BAA for the full submission instructions, evaluation criteria, required technical approach, and any security or installation access constraints that can arise when working on or near a Navy facility.
For parties who could not access the full announcement electronically, the listed point of contact was Tammey Crouse, Contracting Officer, at 202-685-3162. Since the synopsis repeatedly indicates "See Attached Broad Agency Announcement which includes the scope of work," the BAA would have been the authoritative source for details such as the exact shoreline reach locations, performance requirements, permissible stabilization techniques, environmental compliance expectations, deliverables (for example, design documents, permitting support, monitoring plans, and reporting), and the form and format of the proposal package.
