About this opportunity

This federal grant opportunity from the Department of the Navy's Naval Facilities Engineering Command Southwest (NAVFAC SW) seeks statements of interest to conduct multi-species surveys and studies on Marine Corps Air Station (MCAS) Miramar in California. The focus is on the federally threatened coastal California gnatcatcher, with potential future surveys for other threatened or endangered species such as the least Bell's vireo, southwestern willow flycatcher, Quino checkerspot butterfly, Hermes copper butterfly, monarch butterfly, and western spadefoot toad. The resulting data, analysis, and reports will support the station's management of these protected species in compliance with the Endangered Species Act. Eligible applicants are Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit California partners, and the application deadline is August 26, 2024.

The total estimated funding for this opportunity is $777,865, with an 18-month base period of $284,066 and four 12-month option periods ranging from $57,738 to $183,188. The work will be performed on MCAS Miramar in California and is funded under the Basic and Applied Scientific Research grant program (CFDA 12.300).

Synopsis

Marine Corps Air Station Miramar (MCAS Miramar):

In order to comply with the Endangered Species Act of 1973 (19 USC 1531 et seq.), DoD Instruction 4715.3 - Environmental Conservation Program, and Marine Corps Order P5090.2A MCAS Miramar's 2018 Integrated Natural Resources Management Plan (INRMP) identified a management objective to support the Special Status Species Management on MCAS Miramar. This objective is to proactively maintain up-to-date data for special status species through the collection of information on presence or absence, location, habitat availability and suitability, and life history requirements of federally threatened and endangered avian species to support planning for military operational requirements and habitat conservation. The resulting reports directly support projects and maintenance planning, including Endangered Species Act (ESA) Consultations. Data gathered from these surveys can directly guide management decisions on MCAS Miramar and further understanding of how federally threatened and endangered species utilize habitat available on MCAS Miramar.
