Grant Description: A NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD IS ISSUED BY THE U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to the Nevada Waterfowl Association according to 505 DM 2.14 (2) [refer to the attached NOI justification]. NO COMPETITION IS EXPECTED PLEAS DO NOT APPLY FOR THIS OPPORTUNITY. The purpose of this grant is to continue to provide funding for a wildlife research study entitled: Greater Sandhill Crane Colt Survival in Northeastern Nevada. The primary objectives are to investigate Sandhill Crane colts survival rates on known breeding range and what factors affect survival rates and to compare summer range characteristics and to contrast any changes with previously described summer breeding range, winter range and stopover sites. No substantial involvement, on the part of USFWS, is anticipated for the successful completion of the objectives to be funded. It is anticipated that the Service's involvement will consist of standard Federal stewardship responsibilities, such as monitoring project performance, technical assistance at the request of the recipient, etc.
