  • Arizona – May/June 2017 Sjef Öllers
    Arizona – May/June 2017 Sjef Öllers Our first holiday in the USA was a relaxed trip with about equal time spent on mammalwatching, birding and hiking, but often all three could be combined. Mammal highlights included White-nosed Coati, Hooded Skunk, Striped Skunk, American Badger and unfortunately brief views of Black-footed Ferret. There were many birding highlights but I was particularly pleased with sightings of Montezuma Quail, Scaled Quail, Red-faced Warbler, Elegant Trogon, Greater Roadrunner, Elf Owl, Spotted Owl, Dusky Grouse and Californian Condor. American Badger Introduction Arizona seemed to offer a good introduction to both the avian and mammalian delights of North America. Our initial plan was to do a comprehensive two-week visit of southeast Arizona, but after some back and forth we decided to include a visit to the Grand Canyon, also because this allowed a visit to Seligman for Badger and Black-footed Ferret and Vermillion Cliffs for Californian Condor. Overall, the schedule worked out pretty well, even if the second part included a lot more driving, although most of the driving was through pleasant or even superb scenery. I was already a little skeptical of including Sedona before the trip, and while I don’t regret having visited the Sedona area, from a mammal and birding perspective it is a destination that could be excluded. Another night in Seligman and more hiking/birding around Flagstaff would probably have been more productive. 1 Timing and Weather By late May/early June the northbound migratory species have largely left southeast Arizona so you mainly get to see the resident birds and summer visitors.

  • Native Fish Restoration in Redrock Canyon
    U.S. Department of the Interior Bureau of Reclamation Final Environmental Assessment Phoenix Area Office NATIVE FISH RESTORATION IN REDROCK CANYON U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service Southwestern Region Coronado National Forest Santa Cruz County, Arizona June 2008 Bureau of Reclamation Finding of No Significant Impact U.S. Forest Service Finding of No Significant Impact Decision Notice INTRODUCTION In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (Public Law 91-190, as amended), the Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation), as the lead Federal agency, and the Forest Service, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS), and Arizona Game and Fish Department (AGFD), as cooperating agencies, have issued the attached final environmental assessment (EA) to disclose the potential environmental impacts resulting from construction of a fish barrier, removal of nonnative fishes with the piscicide antimycin A and/or rotenone, and restoration of native fishes and amphibians in Redrock Canyon on the Coronado National Forest (CNF). The Proposed Action is intended to improve the recovery status of federally listed fish and amphibians (Gila chub, Gila topminnow, Chiricahua leopard frog, and Sonora tiger salamander) and maintain a healthy native fishery in Redrock Canyon consistent with the CNF Plan and ongoing Endangered Species Act (ESA), Section 7(a)(2), consultation between Reclamation and the FWS. BACKGROUND The Proposed Action is part of a larger program being implemented by Reclamation to construct a series of fish barriers within the Gila River Basin to prevent the invasion of nonnative fishes into high-priority streams occupied by imperiled native fishes. This program is mandated by a FWS biological opinion on impacts of Central Arizona Project (CAP) water transfers to the Gila River Basin (FWS 2008a).

  • Tempe Diablo
    FY 2018/19 Operating Budget Supplemental Request Form Supplemental Title Tempe Diablo Stadium Department Community Services Division Recreation Ranking 4 Fund General Cost Center 2529 Type Recurring Approval Shelley Hearn Are you also submitting a Tribal Gaming Grant form for this request? Briefly describe request. Does it impact other departments? If so, include them in your description. Over the past six years demand on Diablo Stadium operations during both Spring Training and non-Spring Training has escalated, leaving the operations budget unable to cover current expenses. The wages and O&M budget is set for 15 Spring Training games, and the number of games has increased to 17 games. Game assignments and other requirements are made by Major League Baseball and the Angels without city input. For example, with the signing of Albert Pujols and Mike Trout, attendance at games and practice days increased significantly. This is going to be further exacerbated in the 2018 Spring Training season with the Angels' acquisition of Shohei Ohtani, one of the most coveted free agent signings of this year. This year’s excitement has increased media interest, resulting in more than 130 new media members from previous years. This has resulted in the need for increased staffing, barriers for crowd control and more custodial staff to keep the facility clean. With additional fans expected this season comes additional needs for stadium security, as required by MLB, such as the addition of staff and safety equipment to screen all patrons and staff prior to their entering the facility. Tempe PD and Fire have added staffing this year to handle the anticipated the increase in fan attendance.

  • STREAMS in the DESERT Summary of Theme Some 90 Miles Of
    Interpretive Themes and Related Resources 89 STREAMS IN THE DESERT Summary of Theme Some 90 miles of streams and rivers flow year-round in the Santa Cruz watershed. These support riparian habitats that are both beautiful and the keys to life in the desert. The word “riparian” describes the banks of streams and rivers, and the distinct plants and animals found there. At lower elevations, riparian habitats are dominated by big, billowing willow and cottonwood trees. At higher elevations, these are joined by hackberry, sycamore, ash, walnut, alder, and other trees. In dry regions such as southern Arizona, certain plants are found only in the moist conditions along streams and rivers. Some animals that roam mountains and deserts depend on visits to riparian areas, where they can rest, drink, and sometimes hunt. Other animals spend their entire lives in riparian areas and cannot survive without them. These include many fish, frogs, and bird species. Some 60-75 percent of all wildlife species in this region depend on riparian areas at some point in their lives, and 90 percent of all bird species are found in these desert oases. Riparian areas also function as movement or migration corridors for wildlife. North-south trending rivers such as the Santa Cruz are important migratory routes for birds. Description of Theme Riparian Areas Riparian communities are those ribbons of life along banks of rivers, shoreline communities along slow or non-flowing waters such as marshes and lakes, and along the banks of dry washes in deserts. Riparian communities have three components: water availability, vegetation, and wildlife.
