The Nature Conservancy. The Nature Conservancy is committed to the protection of plants, animals, and natural communities by protecting the land and waters that they need to survive. Conservation information that has been gathered on these aspects of biological diversity has resulted in the prioritization of critical sites for protection. The Conservancy has fostered a system of 86 state, provincial, and regional Natural Heritage Inventory Programs and Conservation Data Centers throughout the Americas and the Pacific to develop and manage this conservation information. Directed by this information, the Conservancy now operates the largest private system of nature sanctuaries in the world, thus safeguarding threatened species of plants and animals, and imperiled natural communities. The Conservancy currently owns or has under conservation easement 1.3 million acres in over 1,500 preserves. In order to implement a consistent approach to conservation, the Conservancy identified the need to implement a standard community classification system over twenty years ago. With no national classifi- cation standard available, TNC and Natural Heritage Program scientists began the development and implementation of national standards that form the basis of the NVC. The Conservancy has developed the framework for the NVC and has now identified over 4,700 vegetation associations and more than 1,500 vegetation alliances across the U.S. The Conservancy has developed data management systems to manage this information and serve it to the network of Conservancy offices, as well as state Heritage Programs and federal partners. This system is presently the basis of multiple national efforts, including the National Park Service Vegetation Mapping Program and the USGS Gap Analysis Program. The Conservancy would bring to the partnership this history of vegetation classification, along with a well- developed network of vegetation scientists who are strategically placed across the U.S. in TNC field offices and in state agencies.
