REQUEST FOR STATEMENTS OF INTEREST<\/strong>
\nNUMBER N40192-18-R-8003<\/strong>
\nPROJECT TO BE INITIATED IN FISCAL YEAR 2018<\/strong>
\nProject Title: GUAM MICRONESIAN KINGFISHER AVIARY DESIGN ON GUAM<\/strong>
\nResponses to this Request for Statements of Interest will be used to identify potential projects to be funded by the Department of the Navy (DON) in support of Guam Micronesian kingfisher reintroduction on Guam.
\nApproximately $100,000.00, is expected to be available to support this project (contingent upon availability of funds).
\nThe DON\u2019s obligation to pay or reimburse any costs hereunder is subject to the availability of appropriated funds and limited by funds obligated and nothing in this Agreement will be interpreted to require obligations or payments by the Federal Government in violation of the Anti-Deficiency Act, 31 U.S.C. \u00a71341.
\nBackground
\nThe Memorandum of Agreement for the Conservation of Guam Micronesian Kingfisher (GMK)
\nRecovery Habitat in Northern Guam (June 2015), the Final Integrated Natural Resources
\nManagement Plan for Joint Region Marianas of December 2013 and The Biological Opinion for the relocation of U.S. Marines to Guam (2015-F-0025) all discuss the need to implement programs and projects that will benefit the Guam Micronesian kingfisher (GMK) in terms of population recovery towards the goal of delisting the species.
\nDevelopment of an aviary on Guam could be used as a proving ground for filling data gaps about habitat within the GMK Memorandum of Agreement lands.
\n
\nBrief Description of Anticipated Work:<\/strong>
\nThis Cooperative Agreement includes the following requirements:
\nThis project will develop design criteria and conceptual engineering plans for an aviary
\nthat protects the GMK from likely predators (with Brown tree snake as priority), meets facility support requirements to deliver complete biological needs of the GMK prior to and during potential release trials, and is able to be developed for wide scale use and allows for investigation of: (1) Annual cycle synchronization, (2) Predator interaction and dissuasion training, (3) Plant preferences and plant-bird interactions, (4) Nest substrate options, (5) Factors affecting site fidelity, and (6) Release techniques.
\nThe DON is seeking a statement of interest from the Californian, Colorado Plateau and Hawaii-Pacific Islands Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) network.
\nProposals should address:
\nThis Agreement requires the Recipient to develop and implement the following minimums:
\nTechnical Requirements:
\n1. Develop and submit draft and final aviary design; and
\n2. Develop draft and final reports describing the aviary design
\nPlease send responses or direct questions to: Thelman Fontenot, Contract Specialist NAVFAC Marianas Tel: (671) 349-4119, E-mail: thelman.fontenot@fe.navy.mil
\nTimeline for Review of Statements of Interest:<\/strong> DON intends to use fiscal year 2018 funds for this project.
\nIn order to be considered, Statements of Interest shall be submitted for no later than 0900 Chamorro standard time (local Guam time) on 4 June 2018.
