Conservation Planning and Implementation Under the Endangered Species Act
Thursday, Sept. 10
12 p.m. CT
Managing wildlife risk is an essential component to operating renewable energy facilities and electric utility infrastructure. Central in this discussion is the Endangered Species Act (ESA) and how to avoid, minimize and mitigate potential wildlife and habitat impacts. New tools can streamline ESA permitting and help electric utility and renewable energy facility operators manage this risk.
This presentation will share lessons learned about the implementation of the nationwide Candidate Conservation Agreement with Assurances for the monarch butterfly and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Midwest Short Term Wind Habitat Conservation Plan Template for Indiana and northern long-eared bats in Region 3.
