e. Impacts of land uses outside assessment area to fish and wildlife<br />
Guidance: The functions provided by an assessment area to fish and wildlife are influenced by the intensity and types of land<br />
uses in the surrounding areas. Some land uses, by the presence of associated attributes like noise, people, domesticated animals,<br />
and runoff of pollutants, can have deleterious effects on habitat quality. Do surrounding land uses have noise levels that might<br />
reduce habitat quality Are there other disturbances such as potential for humans or domesticated animals to affect habitat<br />
quality Is the assessment area situated in such a way as to receive direct runoff from parking lots, roads, or buildings Are<br />
there adjacent land uses that may adversely affect habitat quality because of night lighting, or activity<br />
Reference wetland in<br />
Levy County, where land<br />
uses have no adverse<br />
impacts on wildlife<br />
(right), while the high<br />
density residential<br />
landscape in Flagler<br />
County (left) may have<br />
significant adverse<br />
impacts on wildlife.
