The tasks are: a) provide an analysis of all land-use trends in Clark County to ensure that take and habitat disturbance is balanced with solid conservation, b) monitor population trends and ecosystem health, c) evaluate effectiveness of management actions at meeting MSHCP goals of conservation and recovery, and d) track habitat loss by ecosystem. In addition, this report makes recommendations for future implementation of MSHCP permit requirements and conservation actions, as well as recommendations for further development of the AMP.
