This dataset includes the perimeters of conservation actions taken to address threats to sagebrush rangeland health or sage-grouse habitat on public lands in southeastern Oregon, including annual grass and noxious weed treatments (generally herbicide application), conifer removal, fuel breaks and fuels management, other vegetation management or habitat enhancement (seeding, shrub thinning, etc), and riparian restoration. It includes records provided by land management agencies that occurred only on public lands and omits the many actions taken on private lands, where exact location information is restricted. This data was compiled in 2020 through the Conservation Efforts Database (https://conservationefforts.org/) and covers actions through the year 2018. There are known and unknown issues with accuracy in this dataset and this does not represent the official data from any agency. For more information and summaries of actions including private lands, see the SageCon Consrvation Actions Report (https://oe.oregonexplorer.info/externalcontent/sagecon/SageCon_Conservation_Actions_Report.pdf). |
