Another purpose is to measure habitat use of 4 LCR MSCP covered species. The U.S Bureau of Reclamation (USBR) has been conducting bird surveys along the LCR since 2002. In 2007, the U.S Geological Service (USGS) designed a bird sampling plan for the USBR that would produce density and trend estimates of the six LCR MSCP covered birds and other non-covered riparian obligate birds within the riparian habitat of the LCR MSCP planning area (Bart et al. 2010). Reclamation is currently seeking firms that have proven expertise and ability to initiate this large scale biological monitoring project.
