SRLCC Geographic Focus

  • Where multiple focal

resources would benefit

  • Where significant numbers of

Partners are already working

  • r have indicated a desire to

work together

  • Where there is opportunity to

leverage work done by partners or the SRLCC

  • Where partners have

indicated they have the dollars and desire to design and implement conservation actions

What is an LCD?

Key Elements:

  • Partnership-Driven: Cross-jurisdictional and multi-sector and
  • perates using collaborative partner-driven processes
  • Shared Vision: Consensus on Targets, Change Agents (Stressors) and

Measurable Indicators

  • Desired Future Condition: Spatially Explicit
  • Assessment of Current & Projected Conditions: Spatially Explicit
  • Conservation Features: e.g., connectivity, ecosystem processes,

societal targets; Identifying conservation features allows partners to link goals to specific factors driving change

  • Strategies: Collaborative recommendations on achieving the vision,

goals, and objectives

  • Spatial products identifying optimal places for actions
  • Iterative/Adaptive

Spatial strategy:

  • Core… concentrated

areas of high ecological value

  • Buffer… around core

areas to prevent future degradation

  • Connect… linkages

between core areas to facilitate connectivity How much, o , of what, , wher ere e & W Why

Implement Conservation Network Tactics:

  • Protect…

  • Manage…

manipulate

  • Restore…

recreate it

CONSERVATION VALUE SUMMARY

  • Overlay of biodiversity

conservation value.

  • Includes CNHP data,

potential habitat models, mapped wetlands, and CPW Species Activity Maps (big game).

  • Weighted by Natural

Heritage species status ranks and federal legal status.

Multispecies Assessments

  • What are they?
  • Species richness vs.

representation

  • Threat level
  • Connectivity
