This grant supports comprehensive habitat restoration and rehabilitation efforts at the Desert National Wildlife Refuge Complex. Through the involvement of Nevada Conservation Corps crews, the initiative aims to revitalize the refuge’s natural environment. Key activities will include the crucial eradication of invasive species to protect native flora. Furthermore, the project involves essential infrastructure work such as the removal of existing fences and debris, alongside the strategic installation of new fencing. Ecological restoration will be advanced through the planting of native vegetation and the vital collection of native seeds for future propagation. Additionally, efforts will focus on the decommissioning and rehabilitation of illegal roads to minimize environmental impact and promote ecological recovery within the complex.
