The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is offering this grant to Utah State University to assume responsibility for the maintenance of the Utah Natural Heritage Program (UNHP). This grant is for the purpose of transitioning the UNHP’s rare and native plant database, and potentially the entire program, from the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources to Utah State University. Funding partners have expressed a desire for Utah State University to take over this critical stewardship role. The BLM is seeking Utah State University as a partner through the Colorado Plateau CESU to ensure the continued management of this important natural heritage data.

| Description: | In past years, the Utah Natural Heritage Program (UNHP) has been maintained by the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources (Division). The database currently resides with the Division. However, it has become necessary for the rare and native plant portion of the UNHP and potentially the entire UNHP to be maintained by another organization. All funding partners would like to have Utah State University take over this responsibility, so BLM will be seeking a partner under the Colorado Plateau CESU. |
