Fish Habitat Outcome Sample Clauses

Fish Habitat Outcome. Continue to identify and characterize critical spawning, nursery and forage areas within the Bay and [tidal] tributaries for important fish and shellfish and use new tools to integrate information and conduct assessments to inform restoration and conservation efforts. Pressures from increasing needs for land and resources have resulted in fragmentation and degradation of many habitats across the watershed, while also challenging the health of many Bay watershed species. Conserving healthy habitats, and restoring the function of degraded habitats, is essential to the long-term resilience and sustainability of the ecosystem, and the region’s quality of life. Goal: Restore, enhance, and protect a network of land and water habitats to support high- priority species and to afford other public benefits, including water quality, recreational uses and scenic value across the watershed.
