This grant is offered by the Department to address the critical dual challenge posed by abandoned mine features. Its core purpose is to facilitate the protection of sensitive wildlife habitats, especially those utilized by bat populations, which frequently inhabit these disused sites. Concurrently, a significant objective is to mitigate the inherent hazards that these features present to public safety. Funding will support comprehensive surveys to identify bat presence and assess their ecological role within abandoned mines. Moreover, resources will be directed towards implementing crucial measures to neutralize dangerous conditions, such as unstable structures or open shafts. This initiative seeks to harmoniously balance human safety with the vital preservation of biodiversity and ecological integrity across these unique landscapes.
