Natural Resources Management Sample Clauses

Natural Resources Management. INRMPs are long-term planning documents that outline how each military installation with significant natural resources will manage those resources. They integrate military mission requirements, environmental and master planning documents, cultural resources, and outdoor recreation to ensure both military operations and natural resources conservation are included and consistent with stewardship and legal requirements. INRMPs require installations to look holistically at natural resources on a landscape or ecosystem basis. They are living documents that provide direction for daily natural resources management activities, and they provide the foundation for sustaining military readiness. Compliant INRMPs, as defined by the ▇▇▇▇▇ Act, are vital to the effective and continued management of installation natural resources. To ensure their continued value, INRMPs need to be reviewed and updated at reasonable frequency and all Parties need to meet and engage on INRMP efforts on a routine basis. The ▇▇▇▇▇ Act requires that INRMPs be reviewed by the DoD Components and appropriate USFWS and state offices no less than every five years for operation and effect. DoD natural resources policies, (e.g., ▇▇▇▇ 4715.03, DoD Manual (DODM) 4715.03, Integrated Natural Resources Management (INRMP) Implementation Manual), and each Military Service Component Policy serves to guide and direct installations on how to develop, implement, monitor, and report on INRMPs and how to engage with their tripartite partners to review and update INRMPs to be effective management documents. INRMPs are required by the ▇▇▇▇▇ Act to be prepared in cooperation with USFWS and respective state fish and wildlife agencies. However, additional stakeholders are often involved in INRMP development and implementation, such as the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s National Marine Fisheries Service, where prudent, to address coastal or marine resources. DoD installations with significant areas of wildlife habitat should also cooperate with state fish and wildlife agencies in the development and implementation of State Wildlife Action Plans (SWAPs). These plans identify of SGCN, key habitats, and community types essential to their conservation, problems or threats affecting those species, conservation actions needed to overcome threats, and monitoring plans in each state, territory, and the District of Columbia. The SWAPS are reviewed and approved by the USFWS. DoD installations should also cons...

Natural Resources Management. Natural resources management plays a crucial role in the Army’s ability to conduct training missions; each has the potential to impact the other. Training actions may cause the deterioration of habitat for protected plant and animal species, spread noxious weeds, or cause wildfires. The Army must comply with the Endangered Species Act and conduct training in a manner that does not harm federally listed species and critical habitat. Potential environmental impacts are identified in consultation with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS). Appropriate conservation measures are implemented through the Biological Opinions (BOs) issued by the FWS. The Army’s Integrated Natural Resources Management plans describe the management actions necessary to comply with the BOs. Environmental conservation and management measures may include conducting species inventory, monitoring species populations, protecting sensitive species though fencing and other control measures, eradicating noxious weeds or invasive species, installing signs and markers, and replanting native plant species. The USAG- Pōhakuloa Natural Resources program includes a hunting program.
