Description

Areas selected for research and monitoring include the proposed goldrush mine project in the cortez range, eureka county, and the south railroad mine project in the pinon range of elko county. Both sites have existing sagegrouse populations and proposed mine plans of operation areas located within sagegrouse priority habitat management areas. At each site, technicians will capture approximately 2030 female sagegrouse and place VHF radio transmitters and leg bands on the birds at each study site. At a minimum, maintain that number of radiomarked females annually through additional capture work. Technicians will also capture at least 5 female sagegrouse and attach GPS satellite transmitters to determine daily, monthly and seasonal movement patterns and determine home range.
