Abstract / Description
The primary purposes of the Willard Bay Upland Game area are: to preserve, restore, and enhance both aquatic and terrestrial habitat for wildlife; protect cultural resources; and provide for recreational opportunities that are compatible with the purpose of upland and wetland ecosystems. Although management focus has primarily been on the production and survival of ring-necked pheasants, it has been assumed that improving deficiencies in habitat components needed by pheasants will also benefit other upland, grassland, and wetland associated wildlife. The land is owned by the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation (BOR), but is managed by the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources (UDWR) as mitigation for loss of wildlife and wildlife habitat resulting from construction of Willard Bay Reservoir.
