Opportunity Information: Apply for W911KB 24 2 0001
This funding opportunity is a discretionary federal grant issued as a cooperative agreement for environmental work focused on predator management in support of two federally protected coastal bird species, the California least tern and the western snowy plover, at Vandenberg Space Force Base (VSFB) in California. The project is framed as natural resource management on federal lands administered by VSFB, with an emphasis on carrying out on-the-ground tasks and then documenting outcomes in formal reports that will be delivered to government stakeholders. Because the award mechanism is a cooperative agreement (rather than a standard grant), the government is likely to remain substantially involved in coordinating, guiding, or overseeing elements of the work during performance.
The opportunity is identified by the title "Least Tern/Snowy Plover Predator Management, XUMUA53247119 MGT, Species, T&E, Vandenberg Space Force Base, California" and funding opportunity number W911KB 24 2 0001. It is associated with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Alaska District (listed as the agency/issuing office), and it is categorized under the Environment funding activity area with CFDA/Assistance Listing number 12.005. The stated purpose is to conduct natural resource tasks on VSFB lands and prepare reporting deliverables that summarize methods, results, and relevant findings for government review.
Eligibility is open to non-federal entities and nonprofit entities (listed under "Eligible Applicants: Others"), signaling that the government is seeking an external partner rather than performance by another federal agency. The solicitation anticipated a single award ("ExpectedAwards: 1"), with an award ceiling of $508,000. The posting shows a creation date of January 2, 2024, and an original closing date of February 2, 2024, indicating a roughly one-month application window from posting to deadline.
At a practical level, a project with this title typically involves field-based predator management and monitoring activities designed to improve nesting success and survival for least terns and snowy plovers on beaches and adjacent habitats used for breeding. While the summary text does not enumerate specific tasks, the solicitation makes clear that the work will include direct natural resource management actions on base property plus structured reporting. Deliverables would normally include periodic or final technical reports describing what actions were taken, when and where they occurred, what was observed (for example, predator activity or bird nesting outcomes), and how results align with the base's natural resources objectives and applicable threatened and endangered species management requirements.
In short, this is a single-award, up-to-$508,000 cooperative agreement for an eligible non-federal/nonprofit partner to implement predator management and related natural resource support work for least terns and snowy plovers at Vandenberg Space Force Base, and to produce formal documentation of results for government stakeholders, under an environment-focused assistance listing administered through the USACE Alaska District.Apply for W911KB 24 2 0001
