1 PA Conservation Explorer Conservation Planning & PNDI Environmental Review April 3, 2019 Who is the PA Natural Heritage Program? Partners Member of International Network of Heritage Programs In Cooperation With 1
2 Pennsylvania Conservation Explorer Conservation Planning & PNDI Environmental Review Tool Rolled out April 2016 Stats In ,545 users Ran 87,000 sessions on tool Submitted 21,600 Projects 74% of projects screened required no agency consultation Conservation Planning: land use and conservation planning Anyone can view and create maps of conservation areas, protected lands Access to Conservation Planning is open to all users 4,000 conservation planning reports ran in 2018 Project PNDI Screening: PNDI Environmental Review and obtain a PNDI receipt Perform screenings for potential impacts to T&E and special concern species and resources. Conservation Explorer vs. Old PNDI tool Visible species information State agency environmental review polygons now visible (no more black box ) User can plan projects more efficiently and avoid and minimize conflicts with visible ER information Users can save and update projects Projects can be submitted online to state agencies, shortening response times significantly More conservation planning information available (e.g., stream designations, natural heritage areas, protected lands, etc.) Much more user friendly interface Users now have upfront information, easily accessible, early on in the permitting or planning process. 2
3 Conservation Explorer: Information Currency Explorer is updated quarterly New species data added based on field work, new data received by Natural Heritage Program Some records removed (populations extirpated, habitat converted, etc.) Regulatory Updates Explorer updated ASAP when regulatory changes are made (may occur between quarterly updates if necessary) Regulatory change notices posted on Natural Heritage website and on Conservation Explorer tool Goal is to keep information in tool as current as possible Communications Homepage can be used to communicate regulatory changes to species in tool 3
4 Access to County Natural Area Inventory Reports Define an Area of Interest Generate a Conservation Report 4
5 What is Environmental Review? Environmental Review is: The review of projects (e.g. development, restoration, energy etc.) throughout the state for potential impacts to Endangered or Threatened species, Special Concern Species, or Rare and Significant Ecological Features. Special Concern Species are: Plant and animal species that are not listed as threatened or endangered by a jurisdictional agency, but are identified on a PNDI Receipt as an at risk species. These include: (1) plant and animal species that are classified as rare, vulnerable, tentatively undetermined or candidate, (2) taxa of conservation concern and (3) special concern plant populations. Rare and Significant Ecological Features: Non species resources identified on a PNDI Receipt. These may include unique geological features, significant natural features or significant natural communities. Who Performs Environmental Review? Environmental Review is performed by 4 different agencies: Great Egret, Endangered DCNR: Plants, Natural Communities, Moths & Butterflies, Geologic Features Fish & Boat Commission: Fish, Aquatic Invertebrates, Amphibians, Reptiles Game Commission: Birds, Mammals Timber Rattlesnake, Special Concern Purple Fringeless orchid, Threatened USFWS: Federally listed Species Indiana Bat, Federally Endangered 5
6 PNDI Environmental Review Improved User interface Clicking conservation info on/off Improved mapping User accounts save projects Improvements Visual Species Habitat Info Public: see conservation information for planning Environmental Review: users register see visible species habitat for the review process Updated species polygons: Move from the use of mostly Generic species buffers vs. Species Habitat based polygons Improved ability to see areas of potential habitat conflict/impact Project Submission Submit to agencies online via tool Summary of Enhancements Administrative functions Improved ability to make tool changes, upgrades and fixes 6
7 PNDI Receipt Convenience Charge $40 per PNDI project T&E Names are displayed on PNDI Receipt (unless sensitive) User can submit project for further review to FBC, PGC and DCNR through Explorer PNDI Receipt can be modified if needed (e.g., project area changes) No cost option obtain review directly from agencies Government agencies exempt from charge request exemption (approximately 8,000 9,000 exempt PNDI receipts in 2018) Approximately 12,000 13,000 PNDI receipts/year (using convenience charge option) Contact Information 7
