GREEN RIVER — The Southwest Sage-Grouse Local Working Group will meet from 9 a.m.-noon, Oct. 29, at the Wyoming Game and Fish Department’s Green River Regional Office, 351 Astle Ave.

The group will discuss project funding. The public is welcome to attend, but there will be no virtual option.

The group is one of eight regional working groups in Wyoming. Each is made up of citizens representing groups interested in sage-grouse conservation. The group develops and initiates conservation plans to benefit sage-grouse, and when feasible, other species that use sagebrush habitats.
