The Department of Defense is offering a grant to fund the ongoing control of invasive species at Naval Auxiliary Landing Field San Clemente Island. The grant will focus on preventing, detecting, responding to, and managing invasive weeds that are hindering the recovery of six listed plant species. This initiative aligns with the 2008 USFWS Biological Opinion and the National Invasive Species Management Plan. The grant aims to continue the work started in the 1990s, utilizing biological, chemical, mechanical, and harvest management strategies to combat invasive species on the island. Applications are accepted until September 18, 2017.

| Description: | This requirement will address measures included in the 2008 United States Fish & Wildlife (USFWS) Biological Opinion (BO) for Military Operations on San Clemente Island (SCI) related to plant management on SCI. The BO identifies the need to continue control of invasive weeds that may be limiting the recovery of six listed plant species. Currently, the invasive species management program on SCI is structured around the five goals identified in the 2008–2012 National Invasive Species Management Plan: (1) Prevention; (2) Early Detection and Rapid Response; (3) Control and Management; (4) Restoration; and (5) Organizational Collaboration. Once invasive species have been established, which is the scenario on SCI, at least five types of management can be utilized (biological, chemical, mechanical, harvest management, and fire). This Cooperative Agreement will focus on the first four methods of management (i.e. excluding fire) and will be a continuation of work begun in late 1990. This action is considered to be a new cooperative agreement as work has not been recently procured. |
