Sage-grouse habitat assessment framework

the long version

The vision for this habitat assessment framework (HAF) is to empower managers to implement project-level actions that make sense at landscape scales. To achieve this vision, the HAF addresses two primary subjects: (1) applying the hierarchy for implementing landscape conservation, and (2) providing the inventory and outcomebased evaluation tools necessary for assessing effectiveness of resulting conservation actions. Sage-grouse habitats transcend jurisdictional boundaries and therefore require a coordinated approach to management. The HAF provides a blueprint for landscape conservation; success will be achieved through implementation with local stakeholder involvement.--Page 5.
