Range Expansion. Range expansion is a multistage process. The initial stages will begin by locating and assessing current least chub populations in Utah. Life history studies will establish the environmental and specific habitat requirements for least chub. Genetic research will determine the levels of molecular diversity within and between populations of least chub. Expansion of least chub populations and distribution will occur through introduction or reintroduction from either transplanted least chub or least chub raised in a designated hatchery facility.

Range Expansion. The range and performance of this equip- ment can be improved by the addition of more efficient antennas.* These can be installed either inside or outside the building and are connected to the transmitter with 50 OHM coaxial cable. The center-fed half wave dipole, measuring approximately 12 inches from tip to tip, will provide excellent all round local signalling. It is a light duty antenna suitable for sheltered environments/internal installation (LUHFDP). It includes a 15 foot cable. NOTE: High frequencies can equate to high power losses. Always use quality cable. RG58 is only acceptable on cable runs of up to 5 meters (16.4 feet.) We recommend RG213, or equivalent, on greater lengths. If in doubt consult your dealer. *Subject to license conditions. Specifically, mounting height and Effective Radiated Power (ERP).
Range Expansion. Range expansion is a multistage process. The initial stages will begin by locating and assessing current Columbia spotted frog populations in Utah. Life history studies will establish the environmental and specific habitat requirements for Columbia spotted frog. Genetic research will determine the levels of molecular diversity within and between populations of Columbia spotted frog. Expansion of Columbia spotted frog populations and distribution will occur through introduction or reintroduction from either transplanted Columbia spotted frog or Columbia spotted frog raised in a designated hatchery facility.

Range Expansion. In order to obtain the goal for this GMU, five of the six subunits must have spotted frog occupation and at least three of the five subunits must have a minimum effective population size of 1000 individuals in three out of every five years. Only four of the six subunits are currently occupied by spotted frog and it is suspected that only the Provo River subunit has at least 1000 breeding adult individuals. It is anticipated that once additional habitat is available and enhanced, populations naturally expand, however, some brood stock development and subsequent population augmentation will be required. Specific brood stock and augmentation needs need to be identified. This action has been identified for all of the subunits.
Range Expansion. In order to obtain the goal for this GMU, the San Pitch population needs to have a minimum effective population of 1000 individuals. Once habitat enhancement and protection actions have been determined, the actions that will be required to meet the goal will be identified. It is anticipated that once additional habitat is available, the population will naturally expand, however, some brood stock development and subsequent population augmentation may be required. This action has been identified for the San Pitch subunit.
