This grant, offered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) in collaboration with Bat Conservation International (BCI), is for a joint effort to advance the conservation and management of bats within abandoned mines on BLM-managed public lands. The primary purpose is to undertake crucial research and inventory activities focused on bat populations in these specific habitats. The initiative aims to achieve multiple vital objectives: first, to preclude the necessity of listing bat species under the Endangered Species Act; second, to enhance safety measures for individuals utilizing public lands, particularly around abandoned mine sites; and third, to significantly expand the scientific understanding of bat habitat types and their distribution patterns. This project will contribute valuable data for informed conservation strategies.
