The Idaho Falls District of the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is offering this Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) grant to support the stewardship of conservation easements. This grant is specifically designed to fund trained and qualified Conservation Easement Stewardship Staff or a college intern. The primary purpose of this initiative is to facilitate the creation of Baseline Documentation Reports (BDRs) for properties where the BLM plans to acquire conservation easements. Grant recipients will also assist with ongoing monitoring of these easements, manage landowner relations, and contribute to ecological monitoring efforts on the easement properties. The comprehensive data gathered through the BDRs will provide a thorough understanding of the potential conservation easement properties, ensuring effective land management and conservation.
