Project Description

The proposed action is to apply for grant funds to assist with expenses related to OHV recreation management areas. The proposed action is to implement the two California State OHV Grants: ground operations and law enforcement grants. The following grants are specified below to detail how each grant will be used. 
The law enforcement grant will provide for assistance to local and federal agencies for protection of life and property, including natural and cultural resources, related to OHV recreation, motorized access and non-motorized recreation; this grant provides for law enforcement patrols, enforcement and outreach to South Cow Mountain OHV Management Area, Knoxville Management Area, and Indian Valley Management Area. Surface-disturbing activities are not proposed for the Law Enforcement grants and therefore, will not be discussed further. 
The ground operations grant will utilize grant funds for general routine operations and maintenance of trails, roads, and facilities within OHV areas. The project will provide support to allow compliance with soil standards and a Habitat Management Plan (HMP), protection of natural and/or cultural resources, and provide OHV users with quality recreational experiences by improving safer riding opportunities. The ground operations grant will include funding for trail maintenance, road maintenance, facility operation and maintenance, HMP monitoring, soil conservation monitoring, cultural resource monitoring, facility and equipment purchases, and BLM Staff. Surface disturbing activities of the Ground Operations grant are limited to the footprint of the existing roads, trails, and facilities, minimizing potential impacts to special status plant and animal species and cultural resources. Furthermore, before any ground operations activities occur resource specialists will communicate any possible resource concerns to equipment operators / hand-crews to prevent adverse effects to possible resources.
