This grant is for studying the occurrence of non-native and invasive plants within road and off-highway vehicle (OHV) trail corridors of the vast 290,000-acre Salmon Lake-Kigluaik Special Recreation Management Area (SRMA) in Alaska, managed by the BLM. The project focuses on areas like the 8-acre Salmon Lake Campground and four miles of SRMA trails, which are crucial for the popular red salmon run supporting sport and subsistence fisheries. Invasive species are likely transported into these sensitive ecosystems via recreational vehicles, camping gear, and off-road travel. The study aims to identify and understand the spread of these plants in high-traffic zones to inform future management strategies for protecting this vital natural resource.

| Description: | This project would study road and off-highway vehicle (OHV) trail corridors in the Salmon Lake-Kigluaik Special Recreation Management Area (SRMA) for non-native and invasive plant occurrence. The BLM manages the 290,000 acres Salmon Lake-Kigluaik SRMA, including summer motorized OHV trails and a developed campground. The eight-acre Salmon Lake Campground is located near the outflow of Salmon Lake which feeds a popular red salmon run on the Salmon River and is important to sport and subsistence fisheries. Road and trail access to the campsites and area fishing spots are likely areas for invasive plant occurrence in addition to the four miles of trail within the SRMA. Invasive plants are likely transported to these areas via vehicles, camping gear and off-road travel. |
