Summary

To illustrate the general locations of lands targeted for specialty preserves listed in Table 8 of the SJV Recovery Plan.

Description

The California Departments of Fish and Game, Parks and Recreation, and Transportation (Caltrans) are collaborating to improve planning information for wildlife connectivity statewide. The results of an inquiry to identify existing information on wildlife corridors in California produced eight data sets covering three parts of California and a single statewide data set. Not all data sets represent the same data gathering and analysis criteria for designating corridors. The data set groups and their creators are: Statewide Corridors, by South Coast Wildlands - one data set. Central California Coast Corridors, by Univ. of California, Davis - one data set. San Joaquin Valley Corridors, by Endangered Species Recovery Program - three data sets. San Joaquin Valley Corridors, by Information Center for the Environment - two data sets. Southern California Corridors, by South Coast Wildlands - one data set. This data set proposes natural lands targeted for protection as specialty preserves for maintaining wildlife values in the San Joaquin Valley. The information was put together by the Endangered Species Recovery Program and incorporated with the federal recovery plan produced by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.

Supplemental information
Public and conservation lands should be adaptively managed to maximize their potential to support listed and sensitive species. Private lands should be protected through conservation or management agreements, acquisition, easements or other mechanisms, then adaptively managed. Management plans should be developed for all protected areas.

Data Quality

Scope of quality information
Resource level dataset




Data quality report - Conceptual consistency
Measure description
Arcs connect to each other at nodes. Arcs have direction and left and right sides. Arcs that connect to surround an area define a polygon.




Data quality report - Completeness omission
Measure description
The locations of plant species featured in the SJV Recovery Plan were used to identify areas in need of preserves. Specialty preserves were also chosen to represent the range of ecological conditions under which each species occurred (e.g., latitude/longitude, elevation, plant community, soils).




Data quality report - Quantitative attribute accuracy
Measure description
The attributes assigned were taken from Table 8. of the SJV Recovery plan and are assumed to be as accurate as the table in the plan.




Data quality report - Absolute external positional accuracy
Dimension horizontal


Measure description
The data represents general geograpic locations and is not accurate to the parcel level.




Lineage

Process step
When the process occurred 1996-01-01
Description
The locations of recommended specialty preserves were identified by Ellen Cypher of ESRP with assistance from the following: Mary Ann Showers (Cordylanthus palmatus), Kern County Valley Floor HCP Botanical Worgroup consiting of Jan Knight, Sandra Morey, Gene Cooley, Rhonda Reed, Scott Wilson and Ellen Cypher (Kern County Plants), and the Specialty Preserve subcommittee of the San Joaquin Valley Biological Technical Committee. The locations of plant species featured in the SJV Recovery Plan were used to identify areas in need of preserves. Specialty preserves were also chosen to represent the range of ecological conditions under which each species occurred (e.g., latitude/longitude, elevation, plant community, soils).
