County Wildlife Geographic Information System Sample Clauses

County Wildlife Geographic Information System. Prior to initiating the NCCP/MSAA/HCP, the County had already begun developing a GIS database. The GIS database was designed to cover the entire County and to provide a habitat- based resource management system to assist the County in addressing questions related to potential development impacts on wildlife and natural habitats. The GIS maps cover a broad range of environmental characteristics influencing wildlife protection and management, including: natural vegetation communities; sensitive species; soils; topography; geomorphic and hydrologic features; and general plan land use designations. During the course of the preparation of the NCCP/MSAA/HCP, the GIS database has been expanded to include data and analyses prepared by the USACE (planning level delineation of wetlands and a functional assessment of hydrologic integrity within the SAMP study area), the Transportation Corridor Agencies (species and habitat surveys), and other species/habitat survey information prepared by participating landowners. This information, in the form of composite maps and tabular presentations, is discussed in Chapter 3 (Existing Setting) and has been fully considered during preparation of the NCCP/MSAA/HCP. The GIS is a key component of the County’s NCCP program. During preparation of the Southern NCCP/MSAA/HCP, the GIS was used to: (1) accurately map coastal sage scrub habitat existing within the subregional planning area and the County of Orange as a whole; (2) for “interim take” purposes, in some instances identify the relative quality of coastal sage scrub habitat based on a “high, intermediate, and low” value hierarchy established by the NCCP Conservation Guidelines and the Special Rule; and (3) provide a tool to formulate and evaluate alternative Habitat Reserve designs. The GIS enabled NCCP participants to systematically and graphically analyze the variety of habitat communities and species characteristics within the subregional study area. It allowed the County and other NCCP participants to evaluate conservation planning alternatives and to formulate the “proposed” project alternative set forth in the NCCP/MSAA/HCP and evaluated in the Joint Programmatic EIR/EIS (Part II).
