Description: This data set was created to depict sagebrush focal areas from the BLM Greater Sage-Grouse Land Use Planning Strategy in the Utah Sub-Region. This data was developed and used during preparation of a draft and final environmental impact statement and the record of decision to amend 14 BLM land use plans throughout the State of Utah. This planning process was initiated through issuance of a Notice of Intent published on December 6, 2011. This dataset is associated with the Record of Decision and Approved Resource Management Plan Amendments for the Great Basin Region, released to the public via a Notice of Availability on September 24, 2015. The purpose of the planning process was to address protection of greater sage-grouse, in partial response to a March 2010 decision by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) that found the greater sage-grouse was eligible for listing under the authorities of the Endangered Species Act. The planning process resulted in preparation of a draft environmental impact statement (DEIS) and final environmental impact statement (FEIS) in close coordination with cooperating agencies for the planning effort. The planning effort addressed the adequacy of regulatory mechanisms found in the land use plans, as well as addressing the myriad threats to grouse and their habitat that were identified by the FWS. Sagebrush Focal Areas (SFAs) are based on "highly important landscapes" identified by the Fish and Wildlife Service in a memo on October 27, 2014. The memo and associated maps provided by the Fish and Wildlife Service identify areas that represent recognized "strongholds" for greater sage-grouse that have been noted and referenced as having the highest densities of sage-grouse and other criteria important for the persistence of the species.
