The Bureau of Land Management is offering this grant for a comprehensive distribution assessment of five rare plant species. This grant is for the purpose of mapping the probability of occurrence for the Uinta Basin hookless cactus, Pariette cactus, Shrubby reed-mustard, Clay reed-mustard, and Barneby ridge-cress. Upon successful completion, the project requires the submission of detailed species distribution maps in raster format, accompanied by a comprehensive report detailing the methods, assessment results, and all utilized datasets. This initiative aims to provide critical ecological data, enabling informed conservation and management strategies for these sensitive plant populations across their habitats.
