Example 2: How to Use Information in the NC Wildlife Action Plan
• Review of the habitat-association information in Appendix H shows numerous SGCN and other priority species use headwater and small streams in all ecoregions of the state. Projects that protect, enhance, or restore riparian habitats on headwater and small stream systems support the goals of this WAP (see Chapter 6 and Appendix K), particularly Goal 2 Objectives 2.A and 2.C. • Recommendations in Section 4.2.2 call for management of riparian habitats to promote natural evolution and movement of woody debris in streams and the preservation or restoration of riparian vegetation to maintain stable streambanks and dissipate water runof energy that can contribute to sedimentation in stream waters. Collaborating with and supporting partners that manage land with headwater and small streams will support WAP Goals 1 and 2 objectives (1.D, 2.A, 2.B, 2.D).
