The BLM CA is offering this grant to support its Rare Plant Treasure Hunt initiative, a vital program that pairs botanists with citizen scientist volunteers. This grant is for the purpose of meticulously searching for and documenting new and historic populations of rare and sensitive plant species across BLM-managed lands in southern and northern California. A primary focus will be placed on species potentially impacted by renewable energy projects, ensuring their preservation amidst development. Through the dedicated efforts of trained botanists and volunteer teams, this funding will facilitate the collection of crucial population information for federally listed threatened and endangered (T&E) and other sensitive plant species, contributing significantly to conservation efforts.
