Recommended Actions. The recommendations in this plan fall into two categories: recommendations for actions that need to be taken throughout the Cross River Gorillas’ range, and site-specific recommendations. Note: Several organizations, governmental and non-governmental, have already committed to work in partnership for the implementation of the proposed actions.
Recommended Actions. All stakeholders in the university research enterprise can work to bring expectations of patent licensing yields (fee and royalty) in line with global benchmarks. Within universities, incentives should be re-focused on core competencies related to (1) producing knowledge through research and; (2) more productive partnerships with industry to raise revenue from direct provision of technical services, consistent with the university’s core missions.
Recommended Actions. Academic Year Agreement – Approve the renewal of the education services agreement with the Nebraska Department of Education for FY 2003 at a tuition rate of $62,759 per Nebraska student ($39,252 for educational and related program services and $23,507 for residential services).
Recommended Actions. The Subject Matter Expert suggests that the State focus on the recommendations noted in the Executive Summary during the next six (6) to 12 months. The State reports implementation of a number of these actions are underway and the SME suggests that further development is required. For others, the State has indicated it is developing strategies, as an aspect of its Implementation Plan, to initiate recommended actions. Detailed information about these recommendations begins on Page 22. The Settlement Agreement requires the State to develop and revise an Implementation Plan to demonstrate how it will ensure that all the requirements in the agreement are addressed and successfully met over the term of the Settlement Agreement. Meeting the requirements as set forth will require enhancing systems and services for vulnerable populations such that individuals will always be able to choose where they want to live, despite any presenting disability. As required in Section VI of the Settlement Agreement, the plan must:

Recommended Actions. The Local Working Group recommends that:
1) IDF&G continue to analyze the existing data for adequacy and quality.
2) IDF&G standardize data collection techniques and ensure they are applied consistently. Consider all past, present, and future data collection techniques used within or outside the agency.
3) IDF&G ensure that only high quality data are used in analysis.
4) IDF&G report data in a consistent format and a manner that can be understood by the general public on an annual basis.
5) IDF&G ensure that data is stored and managed consistently on a statewide basis.
6) IDF&G collect sufficient data to be able to ascertain whether populations are migratory and which are non-migratory, and map movement patterns to determine key seasonal habitat use areas when possible and appropriate.
7) IDF&G encourage investigation into the need for and methodology to collect population data in areas where there is no sage-grouse hunting.
8) IDF&G analyze status and trend annually for the sage-grouse population.
Recommended Actions. The Local Working Group recommends that:
1) The Idaho Fish and Game Commission allow hunting of sage-grouse only after a 3 year period where populations maintain a minimum of 300 birds or at least 100 males are counted on the leks as recommended by Xxxxxxxx et al (2000).
2) The Idaho Fish and Game Commission establishes hunting seasons based on the guidelines set forth by Xxxxxxxx et al (2000).
3) The Idaho Fish and Game Commission only allow hunting as long as the total number of active leks are >12 throughout the area of concern.
Recommended Actions. The Local Working Group recommends that:
1) The Idaho Office of Species Conservation fund a comprehensive study in the Greater Curlew Valley area that includes the impacts of predation on local sage-grouse populations.
Recommended Actions. The Local Working Group recommends that:
1) The Pocatello Field Office of the Bureau of Land Management, the Curlew National Grassland of the U.S. Forest Service, the Idaho Department of Lands, the Natural Resources Conservation Service, and IDF&G create/compile a useable habitat map and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) database of the Greater Curlew Valley area that identifies all four types of habitat/seasonal Sage-grouse use areas using data (provided by all relevant agencies) including: • Breeding habitat • Summer-Late brood rearing habitat • Winter habitat • Migration corridors/linkage areas
2) IDF&G and the Natural Resources Conservation Service delineate habitats into the following categories: • Presently lost areas (areas that currently do not provide usable habitat due to land use changes but which may potentially be recovered). • Permanently lost areas (no chance for recovery). • Vital areas (areas that remain intact and vital for current populations). • Underutilized areas (suitable; but currently not used; lightly occupied areas; or areas that received historical use). • Fragmented areas (isolated areas of habitat that may or may not be occupied). • Low priority areas that are being used incidentally, but have low site potential.
3) The Bureau of Land Management, with assistance from other land management agencies and the Natural Resources Conservation Service develop standardized habitat inventory methods. Once the agencies agree to use the standardized inventory methods, documentation will be appended to this plan.
4) Idaho Department of Fish and Game, with assistance from land management agencies and the Natural Resources Conservation Service, update the database and map annually
