INTERMOUNTAIN RESEARCH STATION 



The Intermountain Research Station provides scientific knowledge 

 and technology to improve management, protection, and use of the 

 forests and rangelands of the Intermountain West. Research is 

 designed to meet the needs of National Forest managers, Federal 

 and State agencies, industry, academic institutions, public and 

 private organizations, and individuals. Results of research are made 

 available through publications, symposia, workshops, training 

 sessions, and personal contacts. 



The Intermountain Research Station territory includes Montana, 

 Idaho, Utah, Nevada, and western Wyoming. Eighty-five percent of 

 the lands in the Station area, about 231 million acres, are classified as 

 forest or rangeland. They include grasslands, deserts, shrublands, 

 alpine areas, and forests. They provide fiber for forest industries, 

 minerals and fossil fuels for energy and industrial development, water 

 for domestic and industrial consumption, forage for livestock and 

 wildlife, and recreation opportunities for millions of visitors. 



Several Station units conduct research in additional western 

 States, or have missions that are national or international in scope. 



Station laboratories are located in: 



Boise, Idaho 



Bozeman, Montana (in cooperation with Montana State University) 

 Logan, Utah (in cooperation with Utah State University) 

 Missoula, Montana (in cooperation with the University of Montana) 

 Moscow, Idaho (in cooperation with the University of Idaho) 

 Ogden, Utah
