Text: 2.3 PROTECTION MEASURES: 2.3.1 Raptors: "If the Review Team determines that project activities could potentially affect raptor nesting on or adjacent to the DFPA as determined from decreased raptor productivity or nesting or documented nest abandonment or failure, ANS's may be constructed at a rate of one to two ANS's for one impacted nest, or existing degraded raptor nests may be upgraded/reinforced to minimize potential impacts."
