Description

In 2010, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) designated the greater sage-grouse a Candidate species for protection under the Endangered Species Act (ESA). In 2015, FWS will decide whether to list the species under the ESA. This report provides the first-ever comprehensive evaluation of the Sage Grouse Initiative (SGI) and its contributions to threat reduction for sage-grouse and enhanced ecosystem function on private lands. It seeks to answer two fundamental questions: What has changed since 2010 when sage-grouse was designated as a Candidate listing, and with what certainty will conservation efforts continue beyond 2015? To help sage-grouse, the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) will make available $198 million to finance SGI through 2018. Figures and tables. This is a print on demand report.
