Biological resource surveys and monitoring at a Formerly Used Defense Site

Carrington Island Precision Bombing Range, Tooele County, Utah

Logan Simpson prepared a Biological Resources Work Plan for use during a Remedial Investigation by the US Army Corps of Engineers at the Carrington Island Precision Bombing Range on Bureau of Land Management, State of Utah, and private lands in Tooele County, Utah. Our biologists conducted planning level biological surveys to document the potential presence of raptors/migratory birds and wetlands at this Formerly Used Defense Site (FUDS). Logan Simpson provided biological monitors to oversee onsite investigations during the implementation phase of the project.
