Bobbie Flores is Program Administrator for the California field office in West Sacramento. Bobbie is instrumental in organizing data management, workflows, and training for the California staff. She has experience providing field monitoring for fish and wildlife for various resource agencies, private science firms and non-profits and often leads field and lab-oriented experimental efforts. She has broad and growing experience conducting monitoring to assess risks for species of management concern and their habitat. This includes construction monitoring for special-status fish, birds, mammals, amphibians and reptiles, and invertebrates on the American, Yuba, Merced, and Stanislaus rivers, as well as within the California State Park Carnegie SVRA. She has performed spawning, stranding, and snorkel surveys for steelhead/rainbow trout and Chinook Salmon on the American and Stanislaus rivers. She has also performed vernal pool surveys for special-status species.
