Welcome to the Sage-grouse
Local Working Group Locator
A geographic perspective to Sage-grouse
conservation efforts
|
A valuable component to the range-wide sage-grouse
conservation effort is a community-based process using Local Working
Groups (LWG). LWG members represent a range of stakeholders including
farmers, ranchers, state and federal agency staff, tribal and local
governments, energy industry, environmental groups, non-governmental
organizations, and other concerned citizens. Although LWGs are in
all stages of development throughout the region, each group is responsible
for developing a conservation plan to address the threats to sage-grouse
populations and habitats in their area. LWGs will lead the implementation
of these plans and adapt them as needed locally to be successful.

Project Description:
|
The Sage-grouse Local Working Group (LWG)
Locator is a web-based, geographically-linked database that describes
Local Working Groups and what types of projects and conservation
efforts have been identified in their area. The LWG Locator provides
a central resource for LWGs and interested stakeholders to facilitate
greater connectivity and information exchange throughout the region.
The LWG Locator is a place where LWGs can share information about
their:
- accomplishments
- local success stories
- lessons learned
- photos from the field
