The National Park Service (NPS) is offering a noncompetitive grant award under the Colorado Plateau Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) to fund a critical task agreement. This grant is specifically for a collaborative project, with the NPS partnering with Utah State University. The primary purpose of this initiative is to design and execute a comprehensive field study to meticulously investigate the ecological effects resulting from the application of magnesium chloride. This substance is commonly employed as a dust suppressant within various park environments. This vital research aims to provide essential data on the environmental impacts, ultimately informing future land management strategies and contributing to the long-term ecological integrity of national park ecosystems.
