How to read the reports
To improve the readability of the annual report, we have changed the layout of each site
report, dividing it into three sections as follows:
The first section of the report gives the reader an easy-to-read synopsis of the project
area. We have included a map of the area and a table with the average scores for major
categories used in evaluating the current conditions of the project area. The number of
stars indicates the number of team members present and voting for consensus on the
two questions the team is required to respond to, pursuant to statute.
In the Management Plan Review column of the table, the Green color
coding means that the management plan sufficiently addresses
management issues. The Yellow color coding in the Management Plan
Review column means that the management plan does not sufficiently
address management issues.
In the Field Review column of the table, the Green color coding means
that the management actions in the major category exceed expectations.
The Blue color coding in the Field Review column means that the
management actions in the major category are sufficient. The Yellow
color coding in the Field Review column means that the management
actions in the major category are insufficient.
Major category scores are calculated by using the average score of
checklist items in each major category.
Each team member present at the time of the voting phase is designated
by a star. A green star means that the individual team member voted
“Yes” when asked the following questions:
Is the land being managed for the purpose for which it was
acquired?
Are actual management practices, including public access,
in compliance with the management plan?
A white star means that the individual team member voted “No” when
asked the above questions.
A yellow star means that the individual team member “Abstain” from
voting when asked the above questions.
The second section describes the review team consensus commendations and
recommendations. The stars indicate the number of team members present and voting
for consensus on commendations and recommendations. A green star means that the
team member supports the statement, and a white star means that the team member
does not support the statement. Consensus recommendations to the managing agency
will be accompanied by a response, and will be addressed in the updated management
plan.
The third section of the report is the checklist findings. In this section, those checklist
items that received high scores by the review team, and items that received low scores
are noted. Items that received low scores are accompanied by a response by the
managing agency, and will be addressed in the updated management plan.
