The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) is announcing a Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) for cooperative agreements aimed at improving wildlife management at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson (JBER), Alaska. The initiative, with an estimated funding of $190,000, is open to various applicants and focuses on managing nuisance wildlife, particularly black and brown bears, to mitigate human-wildlife conflicts. The project aims to gather essential data on species populations, habitat use, and human interactions to enhance the safety of military personnel and surrounding communities. The proposal will involve multi-year surveys in collaboration with the Alaska Department of Fish and Game, assessing bear behavior, estimating populations, and analyzing wildlife movements in relation to military operations. Successful proposals will be evaluated based on experience, technical approach, and cost. The application deadline is set for May 20, 2025, with a project performance period of 18 months. This funding opportunity aligns with the goals of the Sikes Act and aims to promote effective resource management while ensuring military operations are not adversely affected.
