The Great Basin Institute, in cooperation with the Bureau of Land Management Battle Mountain, Carson City, Elko, and Winnemucca District Offices, is recruiting field technicians for four (4) land health assessment teams. Teams will consist of three total members including a GIS Lead and two field technicians. Each team will be comprised of environmental scientists (ecologists) having diverse areas of training and expertise to work cooperatively in a field based setting. The overall objective of the team is to perform land health assessments through the assessment of soil, hydrology and biological (vegetative) conditions; water quality and quantity sampling (Proper Functioning Condition); and baseline data collection for Sage Grouse habitat and other indicator species. Data are utilized for management and adaptive management decisions, restoration projects, and/or to improve sage grouse habitat to achieve a healthy and productive ecological condition. The principle purpose of this project is to generate an understanding of the process used to develop land health assessments, including the data capture and evaluation.
