Applicants Eligible for this Grant: Native American tribal governments (Federally recognized)
Additional Information on Eligibility: The Service's Indian Policy and Secretarial Order No. 3206 provide that the Service will assist tribes in developing and expanding tribal conservation and management programs, assist tribes in identifying funding sources for fish and wildlife resource management, and pursue intergovernmental agreements to formalize arrangements involving sensitive species. On January 12, 1998, the Service issued the Final Rule announcing its decision to reintroduce Mexican wolves into the Blue Range Wolf Recovery Area in eastern Arizona, and designated them as an experimental, non-essential population. The San Carlos Apache Reservation (Reservation) lies outside, but immediately adjacent to, the western boundary of the wolf recovery area. The Tribe has the option of allowing or prohibiting wolf re-establishment on the Reservation. Mexican wolf recovery is a Federal responsibility, and the Tribe's participation in wolf recovery activities is voluntary. This Cooperative Agreement is entered into between the Service and the San Carlos Apache Tribe, to foster cooperation between the Service and the Tribe in Mexican wolf monitoring and management (which includes removal of wolves as set forth in the Mexican wolf final rule (63 Fed. Reg. 1752, January 12, 1998)). The San Carlos Apache Reservation (Reservation) lies outside, but immediately adjacent to, the western boundary of the wolf recovery area. The Tribe has the option of allowing or prohibiting wolf re-establishment on the Reservation. Thus, the San Carlos Apache Tribe is uniquely qualified to perform the activities based on location and property ownership.
