Opportunity Information: Apply for N62473 25 2 0002
The Department of the Navy is offering a cooperative agreement opportunity focused on environmental resilience and species conservation at the Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center (MCAGCC) in Twentynine Palms, California. Covering 1,102 square miles of the Mojave Desert, this facility is the Marine Corps’ largest live-fire training site and plays a critical role in preparing military units for deployment.
This grant aligns with the broader Mojave Desert Sentinel Landscape initiative, a 3.5 million-acre collaborative effort launched in 2024 involving federal, state, tribal, and local entities. The main goals are to prevent incompatible land development, bolster ecosystem resilience, and restore habitat integrity. Specific environmental concerns include drought, fire risk, flooding, groundwater depletion, and declining wildlife populations.
A major focus of this work is conserving the threatened Agassiz's desert tortoise, a species impacted by both environmental changes and military activity. To address this, MCAGCC works closely with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) through the Recovery and Sustainment Partnership (RASP), using a model that allows military operational flexibility in exchange for investment in off-base tortoise recovery and habitat protection.
The anticipated project will involve developing and implementing watershed-scale strategies to improve water retention, soil health, and ecosystem functioning, while reducing wildfire risk and heat impacts. Additionally, it will support ongoing monitoring and data collection.
This opportunity will be awarded solely to the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation (NFWF) under provisions of the Sikes Act. No other applications will be considered.Apply for N62473 25 2 0002
