About this file
This document consists of stipulations for contractors using the McCullough Peaks Wild Horse Herd Management Area (HMA). Key details include:
The document outlines requirements for safety and protection of the wild horses in the HMA, such as maintaining a distance of at least 300 feet from the horses and water sources, not approaching or feeding the horses, and prohibiting the use of mares for riding or packing. It also details reporting procedures for sick or injured animals, and prohibits any harassment, injury, removal, or causing the death of wild horses. Seasonal restrictions may be applied from February 1 to July 31 to prevent foal abandonment or jeopardy to the wild horses' health and welfare.
The related federal contract opportunity is for the "McCullough Peaks Salt Cedar Removal 2024" project. It requires the contractor to lop and scatter 100% of salt cedar within an 8-acre unit, spray salt cedar stumps with herbicide, and communicate with the Contracting Officer Representative at a minimum of every three days. The work must be completed between October 1 and November 15, 2024 using hand equipment only, with no heavy equipment permitted.

14. McCullough Peaks Wild Horse Herd Management Area (HMA) Wild Horse-Related Stipulations
For your safety, and the safety of the horses, please obey the following stipulations and do not approach, touch, or feed the McCullough Peaks wild horses.
a. Harassment, injury, removal, or causing the death of a wild horse is punishable by fines or imprisonment (43 CFR 4770 and the Wild Horse and Burro Act).
b. All SRP permit holders, employees, clients and affiliates visiting the McCullough Peaks HMA will not approach closer than 300 feet to any wild horses. (300 feet is 1 football field in length) (100 yards or 91.44 meters). See the fiberglass marker “300 feet” away from the “Keep the Mustang Wild” sign.
c. Seasonal restrictions may be applied on an annual basis, from February 1 to July 31 to prevent foal abandonment or jeopardy of wild horse health and welfare, due to disruptive activities in the McCullough Peak HMA.
d. All SRP permit holders, employees, clients and affiliates visiting the HMA will remain 300 feet from any water source when observing the wild horses. This will allow free access to the water by the horses.
e. Do not attempt to approach, feed, or touch these animals. Do not engage in any activity that interrupts wild horses’ current behavior. If your presence causes horses to move away from you or to stop carrying out their normal activities (sleeping, grazing, playing, etc.), you are too close. Move away until you are no longer a curiosity, or a threat and you have re-established the proper distance between you and the horses.
f. Do not allow dogs to chase the wild horses.
g. No mares are allowed to be used for riding or packing within the McCullough Peaks Wild Horse Herd Management Area.
h. All horses used in the herd area should be free from any illnesses. If at any time a horse is suspected of any illness the permittee will be required to remove said horse from the area and to have it inspected by a licensed veterinarian to determine the cause of illness.
i. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO ASSIST OR HANDLE SICK OR INJURED ANIMALS.
i. Wild horses are subject to natural mortality from injury or illness without medical intervention. Non-viable horses may be euthanized to end suffering by authorized personnel only.
ii. Report sick or injured animals, or violations, to the Bureau of Land Management:
