Opportunity Information: Apply for NWO CESU 17 26
The grant opportunity titled "EDWARDS AIR FORCE BASE (EAFB) CONSVERATION LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICER (CLEO) SUPPORT" (Funding Opportunity Number: NWO CESU 17 26) is a Department of Defense cooperative agreement administered through the Omaha District. It falls under the Environment funding activity category (CFDA 12.632) and is structured as a discretionary award, meaning proposals are competitively evaluated and selected at the agency's discretion rather than awarded automatically based on a formula.
The purpose of the funding is to provide conservation law enforcement support at Edwards Air Force Base. The core need is for professionally trained game warden personnel who can conduct on-the-ground enforcement related to wildlife and natural resource protection. The opportunity specifically emphasizes enforcement authority: the wardens must be able to enforce all applicable California fishing and hunting laws and also have delegated authority to enforce relevant federal wildlife laws. In practical terms, this signals that the work is not simply educational outreach or resource monitoring; it is operational law enforcement support intended to maintain compliance with wildlife regulations on and around the installation.
The qualifications are central to the scope. Personnel performing the work must have recognized conservation law enforcement credentials, either by completing the Land Management Police Training course at the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center (FLETC) or by holding a commission as a fish and wildlife conservation officer in the State of California. This requirement indicates the installation is looking for individuals who already meet established federal or state standards for conservation policing, including training and commissioning necessary to exercise enforcement powers legally and effectively.
In terms of funding and scale, the award ceiling is listed as $63,544, with one expected award. That budget level suggests a relatively focused, limited-duration support effort, likely designed to cover a defined period of warden services rather than building a large program. The original posting timeline shows a creation date of July 26, 2017, and an original closing date of August 26, 2017, reflecting a 30-day application window typical of smaller, targeted cooperative agreements.
Eligibility is broadly labeled as "Others," with a note that additional eligibility details would be provided in the full announcement under the "Additional Information on Eligibility" section. In practice, opportunities like this are often aligned with partnerships and institutions eligible under specific cooperative agreement frameworks (such as CESU-affiliated entities or similarly qualified organizations), but the definitive eligibility constraints would come from that referenced section of the full notice.
Overall, this opportunity is best understood as funding to secure qualified conservation law enforcement capacity at Edwards AFB, delivered through a cooperative agreement mechanism, with an emphasis on fully credentialed personnel able to enforce state hunting and fishing laws and to support enforcement of federal wildlife protections through delegated authority.Apply for NWO CESU 17 26
