Nevada sage grouse conservation project records, 1998-2006.

The Nevada Sage Grouse Conservation Project was an initiative taken by Governor Kenny Guinn in 2000 to create a strategy for protecting the declining populations of Sage Grouse in Nevada without having the Sage Grouse listed as a threatened or endangered species, a listing Guinn felt would have a negative impact on the state of Nevada. The Governor formed a state level team in 2000 that worked with national, regional and local area Sage Grouse conservation planning teams, especially in Nevada and portions of eastern California where Sage Grouse habitats are located. While hundreds of individuals and many local conservation groups such as the Sierra Club participated during the planning process, many federal and state agencies involved were also committed to implementing the plan's actions. These agencies included the Bureau of Land Management, the U.S. Forest Service, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the Natural Resource Conservation Service, the Nevada Department of Wildlife, and the California Department of Fish and Game, among others. The final version of the plan, issued in June 2004, is included.
