Grant Description

This is a Notice of Intent to Award, not a request for applications. The Bureau of Land Management (BLM), Las Vegas Field Office, designated 906 miles of roads in December 2007. The decision covered 10 Areas of Critical Environmental Concern. The Roads Monitoring Program was developed to monitor the condition and use of these roads and to ensure that each road is appropriately signed. The BLM and its partner will monitor the roads over the next five years to determine if further resource damage is occurring. This project is in support of the Desert Tortoise Recovery Plan and Clark County’s Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan and is a continuation from an expiring agreement.
