Grant Description

Project Background Information: The BLM Safford Field Office has previously worked with a partner organization, based in Graham County (under agreement L09AC15958) which was similar to the current proposal. This program is based in Graham Count Arizona. The program would benefit all resources in the Safford Field Office, but is focused on Outdoor Recreation areas which receive the highest visitor use. Project Objective: The BLM Safford Field Office is seeking a partner to assist the BLM with public outreach by providing a kiosk, brochures, maps and other information regarding BLM managed public lands during weekend and extended hours in which the BLM is not open. The objective of this project is to provide outdoor recreation information to visitors to Graham County and to educate visitors about the land, its resources and opportunities, proper land use ethics, and the agencies that manage the land. Through the recipient, the BLM can provide information about: resources and recreational opportunities; rules; issue warnings (fire restrictions, temporary closures); and identify sensitive resources and promote a proper land use ethic.
