Introduction
We, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service (Service), intend to prepare a
management plan (plan) for bighorn
sheep (Ovis canadensis) for Hart
Mountain National Antelope Refuge
(refuge). We will also prepare an
environmental impact statement to
develop alternatives for management
actions in the plan and evaluate the
environmental effects of those actions.
We provide this notice in compliance
with the National Environmental Policy
Act (NEPA; 42 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.) to
advise the public, other Federal and
State agencies, and Tribes of our
intentions, and to obtain public
comments and suggestions on the scope
of the issues to consider in the planning
process.
Background
Located in a remote area of south
central Oregon, Hart Mountain National
Antelope Refuge, managed by the
PO 00000
Frm 00079
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
Service, encompasses 278,000 acres of
sagebrush-steppe habitat within the
Great Basin and includes the 19,267acre proposed Poker Jim Wilderness
Area. Originally established in 1936 for
the conservation and protection of the
once-imperiled pronghorn (Antilocapra
americana), the refuge also conserves
habitat for many native, rare, and
imperiled species of fish, wildlife, and
plants that depend upon the sagebrushsteppe ecosystem.
Bighorn sheep are an iconic species
native to Oregon and the refuge.
Originally extirpated in Oregon by 1912,
sheep were successfully reintroduced to
the State in 1954, when 20 sheep were
translocated to Hart Mountain. Since
that time, refuge and Oregon
Department of Fish and Wildlife
(ODFW) staff have conducted annual
surveys to track population variables,
including number of sheep, lamb
production and recruitment, and ram
size/age class. The number of sheep
counted on the refuge increased yearly
from 1954, reaching a high of 350 to 415
sheep during the period 1982–1992.
However, beginning in the 1990s, the
number steadily declined to
approximately 150 animals, and then
remained relatively stable during the
period 2009–2017. The last three annual
surveys represent the most significant
declines in population variables to date.
The number of sheep counted dropped
from 149 in 2017, to 100 in 2018, to 68
in 2019. Lamb production declined by
approximately half from 54.4 lambs per
100 ewes in 2017, to 21.5 and 22.7 in
2018 and 2019, respectively. In
addition, recruitment reached a low
level in 2019, with no 1-year-old class
I rams and only two oldest age class IV
rams seen.
Sheep habitat encompasses
approximately 34,000 acres on the
western escarpment of the refuge (Hart
Mountain and Poker Jim Ridge),
including the proposed Poker Jim
Wilderness Area. However, ecological
trends over the last several decades,
such as juniper encroachment and the
spread of invasive herbaceous plants,
may be resulting in the decline in the
quality of sheep habitat.
In January 2019, ODFW, in
cooperation with refuge staff, captured
21 sheep on the refuge. Nineteen were
fitted with GPS collars to monitor
movements and track adult survival. In
addition, health-screening samples were
obtained on all 21 sheep. The ODFW
Wildlife Heath and Population
Laboratory analyzed the health
screening samples and submitted
tonsillar swabs and blood serum for
diagnostic tests to both Oregon State
University and Washington Animal
