The BLM Fire Program in Arizona has identified a need for establishing more partnerships to meet their goals of managing BLM lands and reducing wildfire risk on BLM lands. Management of the 12 million acres of BLM land in Arizona has become increasingly more difficult due to decades long drought conditions, woody vegetation invasion into desert and grassland ecosystems, and increasing areas of invasive annual grasses. These factors taken together have increased the risk of wildfire across Arizona. To address this challenge increased effort is required to implement fire management and conservation projects like mechanical and chemical treatments of invasive plant species.
The Partnership Coordinator will help to address these challenges.
Location: Preferred BLM Headquarters in Phoenix, AZ; Other locations throughout Arizona negotiable
