800 Typical Themes
801 - Seven basic statements
1 - full
protection
2 - entire
grizzly bear study area
3 -
corridors
4 - logging
road restoration + jobs
5 -
scientific committee variation
6 - source
bears decided by committee
7 - source
bears not from threatened populations
802 - Five basics of an Alternative 1-
1 - removes
ESA protection
2 - removes
females from Yellowstone & Greater Northern Continental Divide Area
3 - CMC:
government takeover (Babbitt can disband at any time)
4 - limits
recovery area
5 - fails to
provide corridors and protect habitat
803 - Covers statements in 801 and 802
804 - Habitat particularly logging road restoration, roadless area protection and protects corridors by road obliteration.
805 - ESA issues
1 -
downgrading to nonessential
2 - no
bears from Yellowstone or GNCD area
3 - source
bears decided by scientific committee
4 - Nez/
bio/pro-wolf management
806 - ESA and habitat
-
threatened status protection
-
habitat/roadless protection
-
corridors/security
807 - ESA/Habitat/Security
- road
obliteration
- economics
- habitat
security
- no
Northern Divide source bears
808 - 801 plus no bears from threatened & endangered locations in Yellowstone & GNCD
809 - 803 plus no bears from Yellowstone & GNCD
