| Annotation: |
This conservation plan identifies current threats to the greater sage-grouse and their habitats in Colorado and suggests management practices for its conservation. Appendix I includes management practices that can, but are not mandated to be, applied to all ownership situations to minimize the impact of oil and gas development on the greater sage-grouse. |

Recommended BMPS: “In addition to “GrSG Disturbance Guidelines†(Appendix B), and conservation strategies identified in this plan (“Conservation Strategyâ€, pg. 306), this is a list of suggested management practices that may be applied to oil and gas operations, or other surface-disturbing activities, to aid in protecting GrSG and their habitat. These SMPs are not regulatory, but are options that could be applicable to all ownership situations; they are also not the BLM’s Best Management Practices (BMPs) for public lands, which can be found at http://www.blm.gov/bmp. As new information becomes available, additional management practices will be developed.†Pg. I-2 |
