Participating Landowners Clause Samples
The Participating Landowners clause defines which landowners are included in a particular agreement or project and outlines their rights and obligations. Typically, this clause specifies the criteria for participation, such as ownership of land within a designated area or compliance with certain requirements, and may detail how decisions are made among the group. Its core function is to clearly identify the parties involved and ensure that all relevant landowners are bound by and benefit from the agreement, thereby preventing disputes over participation and responsibilities.
Participating Landowners. Common to all Participating Landowners:
a) Cooperate with CEHMM in completion of the CI (Appendix A). Enrollment under this CCAA and coverage of the enrolled lands will begin on the date the Participating Landowner agrees to implement conservation measures agreed upon by the BLM, FWS, New Mexico Department of Game and Fish (NMDGF), and/or designee and signs the CI. The CCAA is valid until the end of the agreement term, or until the end of their participation in this CCAA as documented in the CI, either through expiration or termination.
b) Improve or maintain conservation lands as suitable LPC and/or SDL habitat for the Duration of Conservation” in the CI. Lands can be enrolled under the CCAA and the permit whether or not the Participating Landowner receives funding from CEHMM or other sources. Technical assistance is available from the NRCS and FWS to develop plans to improve and maintain habitat for the LPC and/or SDL. Financial assistance for the implementation of these plans may be available through conservation programs of the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s National Food Security Act of 1985, as amended (Farm Bill) and/or the FWS’s Partners for Fish and Wildlife Program (PFW) depending on annual funding. The CI will identify, among other things, suitable LPC/SDL habitat to be maintained on the conservation lands and the duration that this habitat will be maintained.
c) Adhere to stipulations on surface activities required by the BLM RMPA (May 2008) on oil and gas lease developments on enrolled lands at a minimum.
d) Adhere to rangeland and grazing stipulations required by the BLM RMPA (May 2008) at a minimum for ranch operations.
e) Allow CEHMM, FWS, and/or NMDGF personnel, with prior notification, to survey enrolled lands for the presence of LPCs and/or SDLs and for habitat suitability for these species.
f) Allow CEHMM personnel or their designees access to the enrolled lands for purposes of monitoring LPC and/or SDL populations and habitat.
g) Allow CEHMM personnel or their designees access to the enrolled lands for purposes of compliance monitoring of conservation commitment.
h) Use herbicides for shinnery oak management only when habitat goals cannot be achieved by other means, including grazing system management.
i. No herbicide treatments will be applied in dune complexes (NRCS sand hills ecological sites) and corridors between dune complexes. Maintain a no- application buffer around dune complexes of 100 m to ensure dunal stability.
ii. Prohi...
Participating Landowners. The Participating Landowners may proceed with development subject to compliance with this Amended Agreement and the precedent conditions specified below for the Development Area(s) in which their Project Site(s) is/are located. Unless otherwise approved by the BCC, the only exclusions from the Participating Landowner's phasing requirement are specified in Section 3.2.3 below.
Participating Landowners. Landowners within the Subregion, including both private and public agency owners, would be affected by the NCCP/MSAA/HCP. In recognition of the potential impact of the NCCP/MSAA/HCP process on their properties, the following Participating Landowners contributed funding and services to support completion of the NCCP/MSAA/HCP, Joint EIR/EIS, and IA: the Santa ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Water District (SMWD) Rancho Mission Viejo (RMV); and the County of Orange. The largest undeveloped private ownership in the Southern Subregion is the RMV property. The undeveloped and non-entitled portion of RMV includes about 22,815 acres, more than 75 percent of the remaining undeveloped private land in the Subregion (Figure 7-M). With respect to the Transportation Corridor Agencies (TCA), the NCCP/MSAA/HCP EIR/EIS will analyze identified South Orange County Transportation Improvement Implementation Plan (SOCTIIP) alignment alternatives to identify impacts to both Habitat Reserve design alternatives and management of habitat supporting selected “planning species” (see Chapter 4) and Covered Species reviewed in Chapter 13 and the Part II Joint EIR/EIS. Any authorization of Take of listed species will be addressed through the Section 7 consultation for SOCTIIP rather than through the NCCP/MSAA/HCP. Future TCA regulatory coverage for unlisted species is not provided by this NCCP/MSAA/HCP but would occur to the extent that: (1) any final selected and approved alignment for the selected SOCTIIP alternative is determined to be consistent with the Southern NCCP/MSAA/HCP Conservation Strategy, including creation and implementation of the Habitat Reserve and HRMP; (2) the TCA provides for mitigation measures required by the Wildlife Agencies for unlisted species coverage; and (3) any required amendments to the NCCP/MSAA/HCP and/or IA are processed and approved.
