The barn is part of Reclamation's Humboldt Project, which is operated and managed by the Pershing County Water Conservation District. The barn is unusable and no longer structurally sound, and its removal is necessary for safety reasons. The Battle Mountain Community Pasture barn is located east of the town of Battle Mountain, on the north side of I-80.
