BLM Colorado Gunnison Sage-Grouse RMPA GuSG Habitat Area - Pre-NOI

Description

Process Step section below The original habitat status attributes within the source habitat dataset originated with Colorado Parks and Wildlife. The habitat status definitions given in the metadata of the source habitat dataset appear to have been taken from the following habitat designations in the 2005 Gunnison Sage-Grouse Rangewide Conservation Plan (https://cpw.state.co.us/learn/Pages/GunnisonSagegrouseConservationPlan.aspx): Occupied Habitat: Areas of suitable habitat known to be used by GUSG within the last 10 years from the date of mapping. Areas of suitable habitat contiguous with areas of known use, which do not have effective barriers to sage-grouse movement from known use areas, are mapped as occupied habitat unless specific information exists that documents the lack of sage-grouse use. This category can be delineated from any combination of telemetry locations, sightings of sage-grouse or sage-grouse sign, local biological expertise, GIS analysis, or other data sources. Vacant or Unknown Habitat: Suitable habitat for sage-grouse that is separated (not contiguous) from occupied habitats that either (1) has not been adequately inventoried, or (2) has not had documentation of grouse presence in the past 10 years. Potentially Suitable Habitat: Unoccupied habitats that could be suitable for occupation of sage-grouse if practical restoration were applied. Soils or other historic information (photos, maps, reports, etc.) indicate sagebrush communities occupied these areas. As examples, these sites could include areas overtaken by pi-juniper or converted to rangeland.
