Suitable habitat equation |
| Text: |
Criteria for lifting of lease deferment in suitable and occupied habitat in the PPA: "10. In 8 and 9 above, it is understood that across the PPA, the sum of suitable and occupied habitat area may increase or decrease for a variety of reasons, including habitat reclamation efforts, changes in rangeland management, changing climatic conditions, lek establishment outside of suitable habitat, new mineral development, and agricultural conversion of rangeland. Thus the general equation for calculating changes in suitable habitat (factoring in Robel impact areas in both gains and losses) is: Suitable habitat acres gained (by reclamation, range improvement, etc.)
- Suitable habitat acres lost (due to agriculture, new development, range declines, etc.)= Net change in suitable habitat" |
