The first\r\nASDP facility to be constructed (winter\r\n2004\u20132005) was the CD4 drill site and access\r\nroad. The North Slope Borough (NSB)\r\ndevelopment permit for CD4 stipulated that a\r\n10-year study of the effects of development on\r\ncaribou distribution and movements be\r\nconducted within a 48-km (30-mile) radius of\r\nCD4. Although the 48-km radius later was\r\ndropped from the permit stipulation, the\r\ncaribou monitoring study was designed using\r\nthat distance to delineate the primary study\r\narea. The study area encompasses the CD3\r\ndrill site (also constructed in winter\r\n2004\u20132005), the planned CD5 drill site (which\r\nreceived agency approval in late 2011), and the\r\nproposed GMT1 (formerly CD6) and GMT2\r\n(formerly CD7) pads and associated\r\ninfrastructure.\r\n\r\nThis report presents results from the eighth\r\nyear of the ASDP caribou monitoring study,\r\ncombining analyses of data from aerial\r\nsurveys, radio telemetry, and remote sensing.\r\nAerial strip-transect surveys of caribou\r\ndistribution were conducted in three adjacent\r\nsurvey areas (NPRA, Colville River Delta, and\r\nColville East) from April to October\r\n2005\u20132012, and similar data from earlier\r\nstudies in those areas during 2001\u20132004 also\r\nwere analyzed. The telemetry analyses used\r\nlocation data from VHF, satellite, and GPS\r\nradio-collars in the Teshekpuk Herd (TH) and\r\nCentral Arctic Herd (CAH) collected by the\r\nAlaska Department of Fish and Game\r\n(ADFG), the Bureau of Land Management\r\n(BLM), the NSB Department of Wildlife\r\nManagement, and the U.S. Geological Survey\r\n(USGS).", "end_date": "2012-10-31", "title": "Caribou Monitoring Study For The Alpine Satellite Development Program, 2012", "other_contacts": [], "iso_topics": ["002"], "tags": ["alpine", "radio collar", "aerial survey", "caribou", "NPRA< Caribou", "GPS", "alaska"], "bounds": [{"geom": "{\"type\":\"Polygon\",\"coordinates\":[[[-152.2636032795796,70.03291021370266],[-150.1884710840829,70.03291021370266],[-150.1884710840829,70.50993159770778],[-152.2636032795796,70.50993159770778],[-152.2636032795796,70.03291021370266]]]}", "type": "Attachment"}], "start_date": "2012-04-01", "regions": [], "other_agencies": "ConocoPhillips", "data_types": [{"name": "Report", "description": null}], "archived_at": null, "primary_contacts": [], "type": {"color": "#3a87ad", "name": "Data", "description": "catalog record for projects with associated data/observation files"}, "slug": "caribou-monitoring-study-for-the-alpine-satellite-development-program-2012", "attachments": [{"category": "Geojson", "file_name": "imported_locations", "description": "gLynx locations", "file_size": 4201}, {"category": "Primary Thumbnail", "file_name": "2012 ASDP Caribou.pdf", "description": "", "file_size": 68262093}]}
