About this opportunity
The Department of the Interior's Bureau of Land Management Utah Region has issued a Limited / Sole Source Justification Notice for a Vegetation Management Ethnographic Study, awarding contract 140L5725P0008 to Dr. Diane E. Austin from the University of Arizona's Bureau of Applied Research in Anthropology. The $90,000 contract was specifically justified due to the Paiute Tribe of Utah's (PITU) direct request to work with Dr. Austin, who has over 25 years of experience working with Southern Paiute Tribes and expertise in Traditional Ecological Knowledge. The one-time project aims to identify traditional vegetation management techniques within the Color Country District, helping land managers develop habitat restoration strategies for addressing ecological health issues in densely vegetated areas. Dr. Austin will lead a team including a Senior Anthropologist, Archaeological Technician, and Tribal Coordinator, with the project focusing on understanding PITU's historical vegetation management practices. The sole source justification was primarily driven by the tribe's previous negative experiences with researchers and their specific desire to collaborate with Dr. Austin, making her the uniquely qualified candidate for this ethnographic study.
