Common use of Southern Great Plains Crucial Habitat Assessment Tool Clause in Contracts

Southern Great Plains Crucial Habitat Assessment Tool. The Crucial Habitat Assessment Tool (CHAT) is a spatial model put together to designate and prioritize areas for LEPC conservation activities and industry development. As such, it plays a dual role in that it is used to encourage development activities to occur outside of high priority areas as well as monitor activities that occur in each of the categories. Another purpose of this dataset is to create an online tool usable by conservation managers, industry, and the public that identifies priority habitat, including connecting corridors that can be used in the early stages of development or conservation planning. By providing a consistent layer, used by all, we help target both conservation and development in areas that provide the greatest overall benefits to LEPC. a) CHAT 1- This category is comprised of the focal areas for LEPC conservation. The focal areas were designated by teams in each state that prioritized and identified intact LEPC habitat. This category was defined using GIS layers such as landscape integrity models, aerial photos, soil maps, anthropogenic disturbances, land cover and expert opinion. b) CHAT 2- This category is comprised of the corridors/connectivity zones for LEPC conservation. The corridors/connectivity zones were designated by teams in each state that prioritized and identified intact LEPC habitat. This category was defined using GIS layers such as landscape integrity models, aerial photos, soil maps, anthropogenic disturbances, land cover, and expert opinion. c) CHAT 3- This category is comprised of predicted high-quality habitat from the lek Maxent models. Maxent is an abbreviation for maximum entropy classifier and is an ecological niche model used for describing available and potential habitat. The model uses base layers (e.g., leks, nests, CRP, land cover, abiotic site condition) to characterize that habitat on the landscape. d) CHAT 4- This category is comprised of all additional lands in the estimated occupied range (EOR) for the LEPC plus 10 miles which are not contained in CHAT 1, CHAT 2, or CHAT 3. The EOR is an expert derived delineation that has had 10 miles added to it for range expansion and planning.
