Opportunity Summary:
The funding opportunity titled "BLM WY Jack Morrow Hills Antelope GPS Distribution" (Funding Opportunity Number L12AS00071) is a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) discretionary grant offered through a cooperative agreement under the Natural Resources funding activity category. It was posted and created on May 22, 2012, with an application deadline of June 8, 2012, and it was archived on June 15, 2012. The opportunity anticipated making one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $85,000. The listing is associated with CFDA 15.231, Fish, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Resource Management, and it did not require cost sharing or matching funds. Eligible applicants were small businesses.
The purpose of the project is to continue earlier research focused on understanding pronghorn antelope (referred to as antelope in the announcement) distribution and habitat selection within the Jack Morrow Hills Comprehensive Activity Plan (CAP) area in Wyoming. The BLM indicates that additional monitoring is required under the Jack Morrow Hills CAP to evaluate how ongoing and proposed land uses and developments may be affecting antelope in the area. In practical terms, the grant aims to update and expand the existing dataset so land managers have current, defensible information when assessing development proposals and cumulative impacts.
The work described centers on monitoring the current distribution and habitat selection of female antelope in the Jack Morrow Hills CAP area using GPS-based methods. By tracking where female antelope spend time across seasons and what habitat features they select, the project is intended to produce location and habitat-use data that can be analyzed in relation to specific types of development pressure. Two key areas of emphasis are identified: first, establishing baseline and use-pattern data within or near potential wind farm areas, and second, evaluating the effects associated with new oil and gas construction and ongoing operations. The overall intent is to generate monitoring results that help the BLM and partners understand whether, where, and how development is influencing antelope distribution and habitat use, supporting future planning, mitigation, and decision-making under the CAP framework.

The listed point of contact for assistance is Robert J. Tichac at the BLM, reachable by phone at 307-775-6313 or by email at rtichac@blm.gov.
