This grant is aimed at developing a strategy to assist US Air Force installations in complying with the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act. The grant requires data consolidation from Air Force bases with Golden Eagles to update the 2012 study, identifying data gaps, and proposing innovative eagle monitoring methods like GPS trackers and UAVs. The strategy developed will assist installations in meeting BGEPA and BGEPA incidental take permits requirements. Eligible locations for this grant include Nellis AFB, Creech AFB, Hill AFB, Vandenberg AFB, and others. Application deadline for this grant is April 5, 2017.
