Golden-cheeked Warbler Habitat

This dataset represents habitat fee zones associated with the endangered golden-cheeked warbler in Western Travis County. This data was created prior to September 1996 using both known warbler observations and habitat characteristics associated with warblers. This data does not represent actual known locations of golden-cheeked warblers currently found within the BCCP permit area; it represents habitat that warblers are likely to occupy given habitat characteristics and historical accounts of the warbler. The intent of the data was to provide a streamlined method by which private land owners and developers within the BCCP Permit area could mitigate for golden-cheeked warbler habitat and be in compliance with the Endangered Species Act. Travis County Natural Resources uses this data to determine mitigation fees for BCCP Public Participation applications. This data has remained unchanged since 1996 when the BCCP 10 (a) (1) (B) "incidental take" permit was issued (PRT 788841).本数据集涵盖特拉维斯县西部与濒危物种金颊林莺（golden-cheeked warbler）相关的栖息地收费区域。本数据集于1996年9月前构建，整合了已记录的金颊林莺观测数据以及与该物种相关的栖息地特征。本数据并非代表BCCP许可区域内当前已确认的金颊林莺实际栖息点位，而是基于栖息地特征与该物种历史记录，推测金颊林莺可能栖息的栖息地范围。本数据集的设计初衷，是为BCCP许可区域内的私有土地所有者与开发商提供一套简化流程，使其可通过补偿金颊林莺栖息地以符合《濒危物种法》（Endangered Species Act）的相关要求。特拉维斯县自然资源部门依托本数据集，为BCCP公众参与申请核算栖息地补偿费用。自1996年BCCP第10(a)(1)(B)条“附带捕获”许可（编号PRT 788841）获批以来，本数据集未做任何修改。
