Opportunity Information: Apply for NWO CESU 17 1
The grant opportunity titled VANDENBERG T7E (Funding Opportunity Number: NWO CESU 17 1) was a discretionary funding announcement issued by the U.S. Department of Defense through the Omaha District. It was posted on November 9, 2016, with an original application deadline of December 8, 2016. The opportunity was structured as a cooperative agreement, which generally means the federal agency expected to have substantial involvement in the project as it is carried out, rather than simply providing funds with minimal oversight. The activity category for the work was listed as Environment, and it was associated with CFDA number 12.632, indicating it fell under a Department of Defense assistance program area tied to environmental or related installation-support activities.
The purpose of the opportunity was "TE species management support for Vandenberg AFB, CA." In federal environmental compliance contexts, "TE" typically refers to threatened and endangered species. In practical terms, the project would be aimed at supporting Vandenberg Air Force Base (now more commonly referred to as Vandenberg Space Force Base) in California with management actions, monitoring, planning, and/or compliance work related to species protected under laws such as the Endangered Species Act. Installations like Vandenberg often have significant natural resources responsibilities because large tracts of relatively undeveloped land can provide habitat for sensitive species, while base operations and mission requirements must still proceed. Funding under an opportunity like this commonly supports activities such as population and habitat monitoring, development or update of management plans, field surveys, data analysis and reporting, habitat restoration or enhancement actions, coordination with regulatory agencies, and other technical support necessary to keep the installation in compliance while sustaining mission readiness.
The funding details indicate a single anticipated award (Expected Awards: 1), with an award ceiling of $311,400. This suggests the agency intended to select one recipient to deliver the full scope of support, rather than distributing smaller awards among multiple organizations. Eligibility was listed broadly as "Others," with a note that applicants needed to consult the additional eligibility text in the full announcement for the precise definition. In many Department of Defense environmental cooperative agreement opportunities, especially those connected to cooperative ecosystems studies units (CESUs), eligibility can be limited to members of a specific CESU network or to certain categories of partners such as universities, nonprofits, or research institutions that meet the program requirements. The title and funding number format strongly suggest a CESU-linked opportunity, which often emphasizes collaborative research and technical assistance in support of federal land and resource management needs.
Overall, VANDENBERG T7E was a time-limited, single-award cooperative agreement opportunity focused on threatened and endangered species management support at Vandenberg AFB in California, funded up to $311,400, administered by the Department of Defense (Omaha District), and categorized under environmental assistance (CFDA 12.632).Apply for NWO CESU 17 1
