Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "Slope Stabilization at NRL Chesapeake Bay Detachment" (Funding Opportunity Number N40080 14 2 0003) is a discretionary federal funding announcement issued by the Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NAVFAC). It focuses on a specific natural resources and infrastructure need at the Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) Chesapeake Bay Detachment located in Chesapeake Beach, Maryland. The central purpose is slope stabilization, which typically involves addressing erosion, soil movement, or failing embankments that could threaten facilities, access roads, utilities, shoreline areas, or mission-critical operations. While the short description in the source data does not list technical design requirements, the title and location strongly indicate a project intended to reduce geotechnical risk and protect federal property and environmental resources in a coastal or near-coastal setting.
This opportunity is offered as a Cooperative Agreement rather than a standard procurement contract. That detail generally signals that NAVFAC expected substantial involvement from the government during project performance, such as collaboration on technical approaches, review of design and environmental compliance steps, coordination with installation stakeholders, or shared oversight of milestones. The funding activity category is listed as Natural Resources, and it is associated with CFDA number 12.300, Basic and Applied Scientific Research. That combination suggests the work may have been framed not only as construction-type stabilization, but also as a project with applied research, monitoring, assessment, or demonstration elements, such as evaluating stabilization methods, measuring erosion rates, tracking vegetation establishment, or documenting performance of engineered and nature-based solutions over time.
Eligibility is described as unrestricted, meaning the competition was open to essentially any applicant type (for example, universities, nonprofits, for-profits, and state or local entities), subject to any additional eligibility language that would have been contained in the full announcement. The posting date and creation date were both August 26, 2014. The original closing date and current closing date were September 25, 2014, with an archive date of October 25, 2014, indicating the opportunity is long closed and kept for record purposes rather than active submission. No cost sharing or matching was required, so applicants were not obligated to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of award, which can make participation easier for organizations that do not have dedicated matching resources.
For applicants who had trouble accessing the full announcement electronically, the listed point of contact was Brenda Uyeda, Contracting Officer, reachable by phone at (202) 685-8052, with an email address indicated but not provided in the source text you supplied. In practical terms, an applicant responding to this kind of NAVFAC cooperative agreement opportunity would typically have been expected to propose a technically sound stabilization approach suitable for the Chesapeake Beach site conditions, demonstrate experience with similar coastal or bluff stabilization projects, address relevant environmental and permitting considerations, and provide a project plan and budget aligned with federal award requirements and NAVFAC coordination processes.
