8.3 Future Review and Revision
with the conservation actions called for in the Plan. Program supervisors will work with staf and partners to review the results of individual projects and, as needed, will use the adaptive management process to revise projects. Project descriptions and updates will be entered into the USFWS database for Tracking and Reporting on Actions for Conservation of Species (Wildlife TRACS) and shared with partners through news media releases, magazine articles, report summaries, or other methods to keep them abreast of project progression and highlights. Currently, quarterly summaries for NCWRC projects funded through the SWG program for 2012–2015 are available in PDF format online: http://www. ncwildlife.org/Conserving/Programs/WildlifeDiversityProgram/WDPQuarterlyReports. aspx. Annual reports for NCWRC projects funded through the SWG program for 2007–2011 are available in PDF format online: http://www.ncwildlife.org/Conserving/Programs/ WildlifeDiversityProgram.aspx. When any type of WAP revision is to occur, the Steering and Technical committees will assemble appropriate teams to complete the efort. Draft material developed for WAP revisions will be peer reviewed for technical content, made available for public review and comment, and approved by the Revision Steering Committee for incorporation into the Plan before submittal to USFWS for approval. 8.3.1 Short-term Revisions Tere are any numbers of issues that can result in a need to revise the document in the short-term and these are expected to be handled as either a minor or major revision to the WAP. Examples include • updating the scientifc name of a putative species when identifcation is confrmed and a species description has been published;
• changes to the federal or state listing status of a species;
• gaining new information through surveys, research, and monitoring that will infuence management actions;
• reprioritization of activities following accomplished tasks;
• faws in how the Plan serves to guide implementation activities that need to be elimi- nated; or
• correcting typographical errors in the text or editing images and graphics to correct errors.
