1 Wildlife Corridors & Crossings State Action NCEL Chicago Form November 3, 2017 Rth Msgrave NCEL Conservation Coordinator
2 What are Wildlife Corridors and Crossings? Why are they needed? q Corridors: Areas of natral land or water that allow wildlife, fish, plants (and often people) to travel between fragmented habitat to access habitat they need q Crossings: Underpasses, overpasses or clverts across roads or highways that allow safe passage and connect habitat q Greatest threats to wildlife: habitat loss and fragmentation, climate change q Large landscape corridors and crossings are vital to srvival of natral systems: Clean air, water spply, flood control, filtration, qality of life q State action now even more important

6 Types of State Measres: General Reqesting edcation of the pblic and/or agencies abot importance of corridors Reqiring stdy and recommendations for action by relevant agencies Creating a task force of stakeholders to make recommendations or designate corridors Reqiring consideration of corridors or crossings for state constrction projects Reqiring consideration of corridors in growth plans Reqesting volntary consideration of corridors
7 Types of State Legislation: Specific Legislation based on agency and/or NGO recommendations for specific bridge/tnnel crossing project or establishment of a corridor Reqiring speed limits, lights and/or warnings of wildlife on highways; fencing along high WVC areas Fnding for project installation, maintenance Fnding for prchase of land for corridors/crossings Fnding for monitoring, evalating after project complete Athorizing partnerships for specific projects
8 2007: Western Governors Association Wildlife Corridors Initiative 16 Western state governors lanched the Wildlife Corridors Initiative as a framework for wildlife corridor and habitat conservation Protecting Wildlife Migration Corridors and Crcial Wildlife Habitat in the West nanimos WGA resoltion WGA passed additional wildlife corridor initiatives in 2010 and 2013, inclding Crcial Habitat Assessment Tools (CHAT) to identify corridors for transportation agency planning

10 New Mexico : Ten years on crossings - with Wild Friends! 2003: HJM 3 reqested the DOT to edcate pblic abot WVCs, encorage DOT and DGF to sign MOU to coordinate information on wildlife crossings 2004: HJM 21 Wildlife Crossing Memorial (did not pass) 2009: HJM 4 reqested that state agencies share information abot key wildlife corridors 2011: HJM 10 reqested agencies to coordinate for a pilot traffic safety project to redce wildlife-vehicle collisions and report to the Legislatre
11 New Mexico, cont. 2013: HM 1/SM 11 reqested that Game and Fish hold a workshop with Transportation Department to identify ftre wildlife crossing projects and fnding; reqested the Governor to declare a Wildlife Safety Awareness Day Update! - As a reslt of or 2013 memorials on wildlife safety zones, NM Game and Fish has received fnding to bild a wildlife safety zone! The fnded project will pt three miles of fencing on I-25 throgh Raton; a second project will involve five miles of fencing near Cba, and will fnnel wildlife below the highway at two bridges over the Rio Perco, and has a "strong chance" of being fnded. Mark Watson from NMGF says,"hats off to Wild Friends!"
12 New Mexico/Colorado Governors MOU on Wildlife Corridors Identify key habitat connectivity and migration corridors sed by key species across the shared border; Evalate and prioritize corridors and ID corridors to frther evalate; Involve the tribes on any key habitat corridor crossing tribal land; Map key corridors with a mtally agreeable mapping system; Identify existing and potential land se changes and other impediments limiting key wildlife corridors; Develop and prioritize strategies for protection of key wildlife corridors; Share strategies with land management agencies, conties, mnicipalities, NGOs and the pblic
13 Colorado Crossings for Pblic Safety HB 1238 signed into law Jne 2010 Athorized DOT to establish Wildlife Crossing Zones Lower speed limits Signs warning of wildlife crossing zones Signs can indicate times of day, times of year Doble traffic fines Half the penalty srcharge goes to a WCZ Safety Accont Excldes all interstates Reqired DOT to report to legislatre: On zones created Impact to WVCs Recommend whether to cancel or expand WCZs
14 Maine 2010: Restoring aqatic corridors HP 1224 Stream Crossings 90 percent of stream clverts nder Maine s roads block fish and other aqatic organisms. New reqirements are 175% - 325% increase in widths for stream crossing projects. Potential benefits from psizing stream crossings to meet the 1.2 x bank fll reqirements: Accommodating increased flows reslting from storms, floods Redced maintenance less risk of plgging Redced scoring and storm related damage Redced metal pipe corrosion Redction in vehicle-wildlife collisions Added vale to natral resorce-based economy: sport and commercial fishing, eco-torism, habitat creation/restoration Older clverts not reqired to be redesigned - - sorce: CLLC report, 2011
15 California: State policy encoraging corridors AB 498 passed in 2015: Encorages wildlife crossings and development mitigation and conservation Creates a statewide policy for considering wildlife corridors and habitat strongholds State policy is to encorage volntary steps to protect the fnctioning of wildlife corridors: Acqisition or protection of wildlife corridors as open space throgh conservation easements Installing wildlife-friendly or directional fencing Siting mitigation and conservation banks in areas that provide habitat connectivity for affected fish and wildlife Providing roadway ndercrossings, overpasses, oversized clverts, or bridges for fish and wildlife passage between habitat areas

Geo. photos motivated Los Angelinos to prchase land, acqire fnding, approve a project (2016), and develop an impact statement on constrction of a 165 wide corridor over Hwy 101 beside the Santa Monica Montains to solve genetic isolation of CA cogars

19 Mississippi 2017: Importance of connectivity SB 2804, 2788, 2655 AN ACT TO REQUIRE THE MISSISSIPPI DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE, FISHERIES AND PARKS, IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE MISSISSIPPI DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY AND THE MISSISSIPPI DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION, TO IDENTIFY EXISTING AND NEEDED WILDLIFE CORRIDORS; TO FILE A REPORT AND RECOMMENDATIONS; AND FOR RELATED PURPOSES. SECTION 1. The Legislatre finds and declares that: (a) It is recognized as a pblic good that habitat connectivity, inclding wildlife corridors and habitat linkages, be maintained and expanded. It is the policy of the State of Mississippi to encorage, wherever feasible and practical, volntary steps to protect the fnctioning of wildlife corridors throgh varios means, as applicable. (b) Areas containing diverse ecological and geological characteristics are vital to the continal health and well-being of the state's natral resorces and of its citizens. (c) Connectivity between wildlife habitats is important to the long-term viability of the state's biodiversity. Preserving and connecting high-qality habitat for wildlife can create habitat strongholds. Increasingly fragmented habitats threaten the state's wildlife species. (d) Analysis of the state's habitat connectivity benefits from the consideration of all relevant data, inclding information from private and pblic landowners.
20 We have National Parks and Monments - how abot National Wildlife Corridors? The Wildlife Corridors Conservation Act (Beyer (D-VA)) wold establish a National Wildlife Corridors System to provide for the protection and restoration of native fish, wildlife, and plant species and their habitats with corridors throghot the United States.
