U.S. Forest Service. The Santa Fe, Carson, Lincoln, Gila, Cibola, Apache-Sitgreaves, and Rio Grande National Forest Land and Resource Management Plans (Forest Plans) provide guidance for all resource management activities on the National Forests affected by this Agreement (NFs; 16 U.S.C. § 1604). The Forest Plans establish management standards and guidelines that ensure habitat is managed to provide for the diversity of plant and animal species and the persistence of native species in the planning area. Both RGC and RGS are currently identified as Regional Forester Sensitive Species in both Region 2 (Colorado) and Region 3 (Arizona, Texas, and New Mexico). The current Forest Plans provide guidance and direction to manage Sensitive Species, which are not currently federally listed as endangered or threatened, to sustain viability and prevent the need for future listing as threatened or endangered. If a species is proposed for listing, Forest actions will be evaluated to determine the effect of management practices on habitat and the need for conferencing with FWS. If a species is listed, consultation with FWS will be required. Conservation activities will be pursued where applicable and areas where Sensitive Species occur will be managed to maintain and/or enhance habitat. The Santa Fe, Carson, Lincoln, Gila, Cibola and Rio Grande National Forests are currently in various stages of plan revision under the 2012 planning rules (36 CFR Part 219). The new forest planning rule does not use Sensitive Species, but has replaced it with Species of Conservation Concern (SCC). Species of Conservation Concern are species known to occur in the plan area and for which the regional forester has determined that the best available scientific information indicates substantial concern about the species’ capability to persist over the long-term in the plan area. The development teams for the revised Forest Plans on the Xxxxxx, Santa Fe, and Cibola NFs in New Mexico and the Rio Grande NF in Colorado have identified the RGC and RGS as SCC. The Gila NF has identified RGS as SCC. The Lincoln NF is early in development but has identified RGC as a potential SCC. As SCC, the revised Forest Plans on these NFs must contain Forest Plan components that maintain the ecological conditions necessary for RGC and RGS long-term viability.
