About this opportunity

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Fort Worth District is seeking natural resources support for Edwards Air Force Base through a cooperative agreement under the Sikes Act. The project requires comprehensive environmental management services, specifically focused on invasive species monitoring, control, and habitat restoration in three priority management areas: Roadside and Disturbed Areas, Piute Ponds, and Branch Memorial Park. Applicants must be members of the Colorado Plateau or Californian Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Units (CESU) Regions and must be prepared to deliver detailed work plans, technical reports, GIS data, status reports, and visual documentation. Potential recipients will be evaluated based on their expertise in wildlife conservation, habitat preservation, and ability to support military mission activities. The Statement of Interests (RSOIs) must be submitted by July 28, 2025, with a 30-day review period on Grants.gov before the government requests full proposals.

The base agreement is funded at approximately $562,725.00 for an initial 18-month performance period, with potential for up to four additional 18-month follow-on periods contingent on funding availability. The project will be conducted entirely at Edwards Air Force Base in California, encompassing three distinct priority management areas that require invasive species control, habitat restoration, vegetation management, and infrastructure improvements. The cooperative agreement includes three primary funded tasks and five optional unfunded tasks, providing flexibility for comprehensive natural resources management that supports both environmental conservation and military operational requirements.
