Management and Conservation Plans. In 1988, Xxxxx Xxxxx developed the first Species Management Guide for Lomatium greenmanii (Kagan 1988). This management guide provided current information on the range, distribution and habitat requirements of the species. In addition, the management guide identified management practices consistent with the species’ needs, including the identification of essential monitoring needs. In 1989, Xxxxxx and Xxxxx wrote the first status report for X. xxxxxxxxxx. In 1999, the WWNF developed the first conservation strategy for X. xxxxxxxxxx, which included a conservation assessment (WWNF 1999).

Following the development of the conservation strategy, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the U.S.D.A. Forest Service signed a conservation agreement to implement those actions. The agreement outlined 15 conservation action items that the WWNF would undertake to further conservation of X. xxxxxxxxxx. The 1999 conservation agreement expired on September 23, 2004.
