Covered Area. This Agreement is limited to the Properties.
Covered Area. “Covered Area” means the State of Idaho and the counties listed in Annex 1 located in the State of Washington.
Covered Area. The Covered Area for the All Activities option remains the historic range of the LPC in New Mexico and includes six different habitat categories (Figure 1). Habitat categories are derived from the BLM Special Status Species Resource Management Plan Amendment (RMPA) of 2008 and the University of Kansas Southern Great Plains Crucial Habitat Assessment Tool (CHAT). With exception of the ‘Other’ habitat class, all habitat categories contain suitable and occupied DSL habitat. Habitat categories were previously determined and described in the 2008 RMPA.
Covered Area. Non-Federal properties within the Covered Area are eligible for enrollment in this CCAA (“Eligible Properties”). For purposes of this CCAA, this Covered Area is defined as the Estimated Occupied Range plus 10 miles (EOR+10), as identified in the 2013 Crucial Habitat Assessment Tool (CHAT) (xxxx://xxxx.xx.xxx/maps/sgpchat/). The EOR+10 encompasses approximately 40.1 million acres.
Covered Area. All eligible, nonfederal lands in the State of Kansas, for all eligible nonfederal landowners, who wish to participate in the SHA/CCAA Agreement. Eligible Lands – Nonfederal lands within the current or historical distribution of a covered species, as identified in maps in Appendix A. nonfederal entities in exchange for actions achieving a net conservation benefit to covered species. Existing conditions – Describes the population levels and a detailed description (qualitative and quantitative) of the existing habitat characteristics for the covered species on the covered property at the time of enrollment. This term applies only to the Candidate Conservation Agreement with Assurances portion of this joint SHA/CCAA Agreement. See also Baseline conditions. Incidental take – See Take.
Covered Area. The Covered Area in the 2020 DSL CCAA is modeled potential habitat for the Covered Species in the Texas portion of its range, which spans portions of Andrews, Crane, Ector, Gaines, Ward, and Xxxxxxx Counties (see Figure 1). Non-Federal properties within the Covered Area are eligible to be enrolled by Participants in the 2020 DSL CCAA. Modeled potential habitat for the Covered Species is based on a geospatial model developed at Texas State University (Hardy et al. 2018). This Texas State University model attempts to map the Covered Species’ habitat (e.g., shinnery oak dune structures and shinnery oak flats) and broadly classifies the landscape into habitat suitability categories for the Covered Species including High, Intermediate I and II (collectively Intermediate), or Low Suitability categories (Xxxxx et al. 2018). As an approximation of the Covered Species’ habitat over a large scale, the Texas State University model is a working model that evolves with on-site habitat assessments and surveys. Mapped polygon locations, extents and associated acreages are refined with additional data resulting in new versions of the model. The current Texas State University model, encompassing approximately 287,327 acres, serves as the geographic location of potentially suitable DSL Habitat in Texas and therefore represents the Covered Area for the 2020 DSL CCAA.
Covered Area. This Agreement encompasses a covered area consisting of energy and transportation lands within the monarch butterfly’s range across the lower 48 states of the U.S. Within this covered area, Partners may enroll their energy and transportation lands (as enrolled lands). Enrolled lands may include both non- Federal and Federal lands, as follows: • Non-Federal enrolled lands are the non-Federal areas over which the Agreement assurances apply and on which incidental take of the monarch is authorized by the Service under the EOS permit, should the species be listed. • Enrolled lands on Federal lands are those where a non-Federal Partner maintains a property interest (via easements, leases, or permits) located on Federal lands for support of energy and transportation infrastructure, which may include work associated with conservation measures or covered activities described within this Agreement. Assurances and incidental take are not authorized through the EOS permit on CCA lands (i.e. Federal lands), but Partners and other Federal agencies reviewing their activities receive regulatory predictability through the Section 7 consultation conducted in association with this Agreement. Federal lands may be enrolled only to the extent that the non-Federal Partners maintain easements, leases, or permits on Federal lands for energy or transportation infrastructure that allow for conservation measure implementation. For purposes of this Agreement, the covered area is defined as lands managed by energy and transportation partners within the migratory, non-migratory, breeding, and overwintering range of the monarch butterfly within the lower 48 states of the continental U.S. (Figure 4-1). Lands managed by Partners may include those owned in fee title, as well as those lands on which Partners maintain leases, easements or other agreements that allow them to conduct the conservation measures and/or covered activities described in this Agreement. The scope of the covered area excludes documented overwintering sites such as overwintering xxxxxx along the California coast, and other documented overwintering sites. Western monarchs use ecologically different habitat throughout both their breeding and migratory habitat as well as their overwintering grounds (Xxxxxx et al. 1995). Differences in breeding habitat include climate (Zalucki and Rochester 2004) and availability and abundance of native nectar and native milkweed plants (Borders and Xxx-Xxxxx 2015). Due to the ecological...
