   personal_statement: With a focus on threats and declines in amphibians populations,  NEARMI
     seeks to better understand the factors contributing to changes in amphibian
     populations and provide information to resource managers on the status of amphibians
     on DOI lands in the region. The scope of work includes conducting annual monitoring
     surveys, carrying out research projects, and working with land managers to better
     inform natural resource decision making for both rare and common species.
