Why do we have a team?
• The LCR Conservation and Recovery plan is voluntary
• Success of meeting plan goals will take concerted effort by all interested and affected entities
• Team members have the pulse of their local communities
What are the roles of the team?
•
•
•
•
To provide advice, recommendations and support to the IC
To assist with communication and coordination with local implementers
To assist with advancement of recovery goals and development of 3YIS
Encourage local implementers to work toward recovery plan implementation and 3YIS
goals
• Assist local implementers in being more effective in implementation
• Facilitate information exchange and provide education to local implementers regarding
the LCR plan
• Be a sounding board between local implementers and the IT team.
What has the team done?
• Currently the entire team meets one time per year to hear updates on the status of the
LCR plan implementation.
• Formed focused workgroup to assist with prioritization of habitat enhancement
projects and develop the first 3YIS.
• In the future team groups will be formed based upon past and present survey results.
• Groups formed will be in the 6 general categories and meet on an as needed basis.
• 2010 Survey re: location and group type interest

What is the plan for the team moving forward?
• Anticipate forming Local Recovery Action Implementation Team (s?) to assist
identification of high priority projects where needed.
• Plan to form workgroups to discuss top 2 or 3 plan actions as determined by the 2013
survey, if interest can open re-survey.
• Engaging local implementers to determine if they can participate in high priority
projects or assist with identification of the highest priority actions they could undertake
and in the highest priority areas.
Is what I am doing contributing to the plan?
• If you are here and working in some capacity to create a better environment for listed
fish species the answer is most likely YES!
• There are 308 actions listed in the plan some are global and some are basin specific.
• Not every action can be considered a high priority but attempts are made to capture
contributions for all actions.
• Eventually all actions will need to be addressed in order to achieve the goals of the
plan.
• I hope the team can assist with local agencies/municipalities/ect to carry the message
that they ought to work within the highest priority action and area that fits within
their missions.
• I hope the team can gain assistance when possible from these other groups to help
implement high priority projects they are conducting.
