Conservation Planning Process
-
Conservation planning identifies and prioritizes lands that encompass important natural or cultural resources across the landscape (e.g., critical watersheds, habitat for rare or threatened species) and develops protection and management strategies for these lands. It is a process where science is at the core of planning, but the science is informed by groups of stakeholders using their on-the-ground knowledge and expertise. Dr. Robert Baldwin of Clemson University explains in this video the steps involved in the conservation planning process.

The Northern Appalachian/Acadian Ecoregion: Priority Locations for Conservation Action
-
This report describes the results of a research initiative launched by 2C1Forest to identify irreplaceable and vulnerable locations in the Northern Appalachian/Acadian ecoregion for the purpose of identifying priority locations for conservation action. Our methodology is data driven, comprehensive across the entire ecoregion, and spatially explicit at a high resolution, which allows our results to be replicated and applied at numerous spatial scales. Our approach to identifying priority locations involved three interlocking lines of analysis.

Abandoned Mineland Acid Mine Drainage (AML AMD) Inventory
-
An inventory of land and water impacted by past mining (primarily coal mining) is maintained by the Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement to provide information needed to implement the Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act of 1977. The inventory contains information on the location, type, and extent of abandoned mined lands, as well as information on the cost associated with the reclamation of those problems.
