They provide technical assistance to these agencies and also to state and local jurisdictions, such as the Nevada Division of Wildlife, California Department of Fish and Game, and the Clark County (Nevada) and Washington County (Utah) Desert Conservation Plans pertaining to threatened species. They collaborate with biologists, geologists, cartographers, and hydrologists within USGS, the USDA Agricultural Research Service, the University of Nevada, Las Vegas and University of Nevada, Reno, the University of California, Riverside and Berkeley, and Denver University."

Changing land use patterns and the recent explosion of population growth in the southwestern United States threaten biodiversity and ecosystem integrity in this region."
