Description

This is full and open competition. The NAICS is 54171. The purpose of this study is to monitor the status of the southwestern willow flycatcher in suitable and/or historical riparian and wetland habitats along the LCR. Historically, a substantial number of willow flycatcher may have existed in areas along the LCR (Brown 1902). One of the major factors for the decline of willow flycatchers along the LCR has been habitat changes within riparian systems. Objectives of the study are to document the presence/absence of southwestern willow flycatchers along the Lower Colorado River; determine the breeding status of the flycatcher; determine nesting success including causes of nest failures, major nest predators, and effects of parasitism; and determine habitat suitability of all survey sites along the Lower Colorado River including the relative importance of native, mixed, and non-native dominated habitats. Tasks encompass two types of studies. First, general presence/absence surveys are to be conducted along the Lower Colorado River, Virgin River, and Grand Canyon. Second, more intense life history studies are to be completed at four specific sites to study differences in habitat types for the southwestern willow flycatcher including vegetation differences, successional stages, and effects of cowbird parasitism and trapping. The life history studies shall include presence/absence surveys but shall be more in-depth. This contract is for a base year, the Government may extend the term of this contract by exercise of one or more of the four optional years.
