Opportunity Information: Apply for W9126G 24 2 SOI 2890
This grant opportunity, titled "Bat Surveys Support at Belle Fountain Area Ditches 1 and 2, Pemiscot, MO and 15 Mile Bayou in Edmondson, AR" (Funding Opportunity Number W9126G 24 2 SOI 2890), is a U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Fort Worth District request for a partner to support bat survey work needed ahead of a planned USACE Mississippi Valley Division, Memphis District channel cleanout project. The work is framed as science and technology or other research and development support, and it will be awarded through a cooperative agreement rather than a standard procurement contract.
At this stage, the government is not asking for a full technical proposal or a detailed budget. Instead, interested parties are being asked to submit a Statement of Interest (SOI). The SOI phase is essentially a screening step the agency uses to identify qualified cooperators before inviting a smaller group to submit full proposals later. The agency indicates that it expects to review SOIs and then request full proposals roughly 30 days after the SOI review period, meaning applicants should be prepared for a two-step process: first an SOI, then (if selected) a complete proposal package upon request.
The anticipated scope is straightforward: the selected cooperator will provide support for bat surveys required prior to the channel cleanout activities. While the notice does not spell out survey methods, timing windows, or target species, bat surveys in this context are typically used to inform environmental compliance and risk reduction for upcoming construction or maintenance work, especially where there could be concerns about protected bat species or sensitive roosting and foraging habitat. The survey locations are specifically identified as Belle Fountain Area Ditches 1 and 2 in Pemiscot County, Missouri, and 15 Mile Bayou in Edmondson, Arkansas, which suggests fieldwork will likely occur in or near riparian corridors and associated vegetation where bats may roost or forage.
The period of performance is six months from the date of award, so the agency is looking for a partner who can mobilize quickly and complete the required field effort and any associated deliverables within a relatively short timeline. The opportunity lists an award ceiling of $140,000 and anticipates making one award, which implies a single organization (or a lead organization partnering with others) will be responsible for the work under the cooperative agreement.
Eligibility is limited. This funding opportunity is only available to members of the Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Units (CESU) network under the Great Rivers and Great Plains CESU Units. In practical terms, that means only organizations that are part of those CESU units, or that can work through an eligible CESU member as the direct applicant, can compete. The listing shows CFDA (now commonly referred to as Assistance Listing) 12.005 and categorizes eligible applicants as "Others," but the CESU restriction is the controlling eligibility requirement stated in the announcement.
The original closing date for responses is June 17, 2024, and the opportunity was created on May 17, 2024. Questions and SOI responses are directed to two USACE points of contact: Nicholas Aprea, Grants Specialist (Nicholas.A.Aprea@usace.army.mil), and Brian Hesford, Project Manager (brian.d.hesford@usace.army.mil), both with the USACE Fort Worth District.Apply for W9126G 24 2 SOI 2890
