The BLM-Alaska department is offering this grant to partner with an organization for comprehensive long-term monitoring of Arctic streams and lakes. This grant is for the purpose of evaluating the potential impacts of oil and gas activities on the physical, chemical, and biological characteristics of these vital aquatic habitats. The collaborative effort will involve shared field data collection and subsequent analysis of the information gathered. This initiative aims to build upon previous successful partnerships, such as with the University of Alaska Fairbanks, Water and Environmental Research Center (WERC), which have significantly contributed to enhancing resources for effective public land management. The project seeks to continue providing crucial data to inform environmental stewardship in the Arctic.
