The University of Wyoming, through its Sponsored Programs office, has been awarded a $342,760.50 Cooperative Agreement by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) under the Plant Conservation and Restoration Management program (CFDA 15.245). This multi-year project, running from September 2024 to September 2028, focuses on three key objectives: 1) developing genetically appropriate native plant seed material for habitat restoration; 2) implementing and assessing seed-based restoration techniques; and 3) inventorying, monitoring, and restoring rare plant species and their associated communities, including the development of conservation strategies and best management practices. The university's expertise in areas such as rangeland management, wildlife ecology, and native plant conservation makes it a valuable partner for the BLM in fulfilling these critical research and restoration goals on public lands in Wyoming.
