Wildlife - Exclosure Inventory and Maintenance Needs Assessment

The Wildlife Exclosure Inventory project took crew members out into the field to collect data on a variety of fences. Lending support to the wildlife and fisheries program, crew members performed a variety of tasks including: field assessment of existing structural condition of exclosures; collection of GPS data on exclosure condition and location; incorporation of field data into the Salmon-Challis geodatabases; development of a photographic record for monitoring; production of GIS maps; routine maintenance activities such as installing wire, replacement of non-functional posts and braces, and use of native and/or dimensional materials for exclosure repair.
