Would you like to learn how you can use NH’s Wildlife Action Plan in your local planning efforts? Fish and Game and its partners recently completed the state’s Wildlife Action Plan and NH’s towns and non-profit conservation organizations are expected to have an important role in its implementation. The Wildlife Action Plan identifies species at risk, assesses threats to their continued existence, and offers strategies to address these needs statewide.
Come to this workshop if you want to learn how to interpret the plan, maps, and data and then help turn it into action. Fish and Game’s Lindsay Webb will present the Wildlife Action Plan highlighting how other individuals and communities have used the plan to implement conservation strategies that are aimed at preventing the state’s wildlife from becoming endangered. Specifically, Lindsay will speak about NRI's (Natural Resource Inventories) and writing a conservation plan, reviewing land use planning documents for wildlife and natural resource protection, establishing land use regulations, establishing zoning ordinances, encouraging voluntary practices, protecting land, and managing land.~
There will be an opportunity to look at the maps at a town level as we discuss planning for conservation and tools to implement your town’s plan. Conservation Commissioners, Planning Board members, and anyone interested in wildlife habitat protection are encouraged to attend. The Moultonborough Conservation Commission is sponsoring this workshop to inform the community about its wildlife and the need for a Wildlife Protection Ordinance.
