Title: BLM wildlife biologists will identify the number, location, design, and other pertinent data regarding ANS's or nests proposed for upgrading.
Text: 2.3 PROTECTION MEASURES: 2.3.1 Raptors: The BLM wildlife biologist will determine the number of required nests, up to two per project, based on site specific conditions and requirements. This focuses on the overall decline of raptor nesting success and will occur if the Review Team determines that projects may be the cause for this decline. The location, design, and other pertinent data regarding ANS's or nests proposed for upgrading will be identified in annual reports, and these ANS's will be located within the nesting territory of potentially affected raptor pairs and outside of the line-of-sight or nest buffer of actively nesting pairs, where possible."
