The Southwest Wyoming Sage Grouse Working Group (SWSGWG) is
seeking projects to fund for the 2013 – 2014 funding cycle. To be considered for funding all projects must specifically benefit sage-grouse and address the threats to sage-grouse identified in the Southwest Sage-Grouse Conservation Plan available at: http://wgfd.wyo.gov/ The role of the SWSGWG is to develop and set in motion local conservation plans to benefit sage-grouse and, whenever feasible, other species that use sagebrush habitats. The Group has been meeting since September 2004 and completed a conservation plan. The group presented their plan to the Game and Fish Commission in September 2007 and the plan was approved. The Group is currently updating data in their plan, securing funding for sage grouse conservation projects, and project completion. In an effort to improve sage-grouse numbers and preclude the need for listing under the Endangered Species Act these citizens have agreed to work together to identify and help implement appropriate management practices. The SWSGWG is comprised of local citizens interested in sage-grouse conservation. Members represent agriculture, industry, conservation, sportspersons, and affected governmental agencies. There are eight such groups operating in The Group will accept applications until March 1, 2013.
