(A) High Global Risk – High Global Responsibility – Species that are of global conservation concern because of small population size, high rate of decline, or major threats but that have a high proportion of their population in a region so that the region shares significant responsibility for long-term conservation of the species.
Zoos are assuming increasing responsibility for the preservation of endangered species through conservation and selective-breeding programs.
The format of any acquired record (e.g. paper, photographic, audio-visual, electronic, etc) is bound only by the archive's professional duty of care, i.e. its responsibility to ensure adequate provision for conservation, documentation, storage and access.
In the Senate bill, for example, the responsibility for shaping a habitat conservation plan -- and then revising it later if things go wrong -- is shared equally by the Government and the private landowners.
(D) Low Global Risk – Low Global Responsibility – Species that are at low risk of extinction at the global level and that have a small proportion of the their global population in a region so that the region has low responsibility for long-term global conservation of the species.
– Species that are at low global risk of extinction, but that have a high proportion of their global population in a region so that the region shares significant responsibility for long-term global conservation of the species, even if it is not currently declining or at risk from other factors.
The draft obtained by The Post includes several provisions that would substantially change Endangered Species Act requirements, such as "providing more flexibility" on meeting legal deadlines for listing imperiled species and delegating the responsibility for crafting a habitat-conservation plan to the states.
