Sensitive Species Sample Clauses

Sensitive Species. ‌ USFS and BLM maintain lists of sensitive species that by policy receive special management attention due to concerns for decline and long-term persistence on the federal lands managed by the agencies. These species will need to be considered to satisfy USFS and BLM environmental clearances. Surveys for sensitive species may be needed inside the HED area to meet agencies’ NEPA requirements outlined above in Section III. CDOT staff will coordinate with local USFS and BLM offices to make these determinations in early phases of a project. In some cases, the agencies may agree to defer surveys because the species and its habitat are known to not occur in the project area. In other cases, for the purposes of project design and environmental analyses, the agencies may agree to defer surveys and presume the species is present if the project area falls within the known range of a species and suitable habitat exists. CDOT, USFS, and BLM specialists and project coordinators will coordinate in the beginning stages of a project to develop project-specific species survey list, determine the scope of analyses required, and discuss potential design features to be considered. Although USFS and BLM staff will be available for general coordination and approval during the environmental review process, staffing limitations may prevent commitment of resources by USFS or BLM staff to complete surveys within a reasonable timeframe. In these cases, FHWA/CDOT will provide a biologist with appropriate experience in rare species surveys to conduct the survey. Forest Service “management indicator species” are not subject to surveys in FHWA/CDOT projects. These surveys are not required when converting existing highways to HEDs (see Section V.B. for procedure).

Sensitive Species. The Forest Service is responsible for assuring that the leased lands is examined prior to undertaking any surface-disturbing activities to determine effects upon any plant or animal species listed as sensitive by the Regional Forester. The findings of this examination may result in some restrictions to the operator, a plan or even disallow use and occupancy that would lead to the listing of a sensitive species under the Endangered Species Act of 1973.

Sensitive Species. In the Forest Service, “Those plant and animal species identified by a Regional Forester for which population viability is a concern, as evidenced by: a. Significant current or predicted downward trends in population numbers or density [or] b. Significant current or predicted downward trends in habitat capability that would reduce a species’ existing distribution” (USDA Forest Service 2005). Seral (Ecology) A biotic community that is in a developmental, transitory stage in an ecological succession. Seral Stage A community related to the rest of its successional sequence, that is, to its sere. Often seral stage and ecological status are taken to be synonymous. There are usually many different communities and stages in a sere, related in time by a multi-dimensional network, and in space by being in the same habitat type. Seres are rarely completely sequential and along a single line, although they are often simplified as such for discussion (Xxxxxxxx and others 2001).
