  • 2016-2017 Annual Report
    2016-2017 ANNUAL REPORT 1 Honorable Kay Ivey Governor of Alabama State Capitol Montgomery, AL 36130 Dear Governor Ivey: I am pleased to submit the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources’ Annual Report for Fiscal Year 2016-17. The Department continues to find more efficient ways to communicate and con- duct business with our constituents. License purchases, special hunt registrations and park lodge and camping reservations are available through our websites, www.outdooralabama.com and www.alapark.com. In addition, we are communi- cating to more than half a million people through email newsletters and notices. Funds derived from the cap on sales tax discounts were restored to State Parks in FY 2017. These funds have provided much-needed relief in addressing the back- log of park maintenance projects. Park guests totaled just under 5 million this fiscal year. The federal management of red snapper and other reef fish continues to be a highly volatile issue within the fishing community. Our Marine Resources Division is working with federal agencies and Congress to provide more state oversight of this fishery and a longer season for anglers. Snapper Check, which continued for the fourth year, is an important part of this effort. The State Lands Division has administered the Coastal Impact Assistance Program (CIAP) on behalf of the State of Alabama since its beginning in 2005. During the life of this program, which closed this year, State Lands administered 49 grants for over $58 million funding various coastal project activities supporting Mobile and Baldwin counties. Participation in the state’s Game Check system for the recording and reporting of both deer and turkey harvests became mandatory during the 2016/2017 hunting seasons.

  • 2017-2018 Annual Report
    2017-2018 ANNUAL REPORT 1 Little River Falls DeKalb County 2 BILLY POPE BILLY The Honorable Kay Ivey Governor of Alabama State Capitol Montgomery, AL 36130 Dear Governor Ivey: I am pleased to submit the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources’ Annual Report for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2018. The Department continues to find new ways to serve the public while making sure we are adhering to our mission of promoting the wise stewardship and enjoyment of Alabama’s natural resources for current and future generations. Twelve Alabama State Parks were awarded Trip Advisor’s Award of Excellence certificates in Fiscal Year 2018. Seven parks were inducted into the Hall of Fame for five consecutive years of winning Awards of Excellence. These designations are based on unsolicited visitor reviews and show how much the public enjoys what our parks have to offer. In 2018, the Snapper Check Program was certified by NOAA Fisheries as a statis- tically valid method to estimate Alabama red snapper landings. Alabama is using Snapper Check to monitor red snapper landings in near real-time to stay within a state quota issued through a NOAA Fisheries’ Exempted Fishing Permit (EFP). The EFP will continue through 2019. The State Lands Division continued to coordinate administrative and technical aspects of the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill Natural Resource Damage Assessment (NRDA) pursuant to the Oil Pollution Act. This included participating in NRDA Trustee Council meetings, conducting public meetings, soliciting public input regarding potential restoration ideas, assisting with development of draft resto- ration plans and implementing early restoration projects.

  • 2020 Forest Action Plan
    Alabama’s Forest Road Map 2020 The Forest Action Plan of the Alabama Forestry Commission Est. 1924 Welcome from the state forester Rick Oates, State Forester t is interesting how time modifies your perspective. Ten years ago, while working for the Alabama Forestry Association, I was asked to provide feedback in the development of the 2010 Alabama Forest Action Plan, Forests at the Crossroads. At the time I did not fully understand the importance of the Forest Action Plan to our state’s forest resources. IFast forward ten years and I am now the State Forester of Alabama, with a much better understanding of what this doc- ument means to the state. I now have the responsibility of updating this important plan. As such, it is with pride that I offer the 2020 Alabama Forest Action Plan, Alabama’s Forest Roadmap as a guide for all forestry stakeholders to reference over the next decade. This guide will serve as a tool to help our state better understand and manage this amazing resource. Alabama is blessed with abundant forest resources – 23.1 million acres - which cover more than two-thirds of the state. These forests improve water and air quality, provide wildlife habitat, support a growing forest industry and help provide jobs across the state. Without these forests Alabama would be a very different place. As such, we want to see forests remain as working forests in order to continue to accrue these important benefits. That is not to say there are not challenges associ- ated with our forest resource, but the assessment and strategies discussed in this document will be instrumental in raising awareness, implementing solutions and taking a step towards achieving this goal.

    Recovery Plan for Spigelia gentianoides (Gentian pinkroot) _____________________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________________ S. gentianoides var. gentianoides, Geneva State Forest, Alabama. S. gentianoides var. alabamensis, Bibb Co., Alabama. DISCLAIMER Recovery plans delineate reasonable actions that are believed to be required to recover and/or protect listed species. Plans published by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) are sometimes prepared with the assistance of recovery teams, contractors, State agencies, and other affected and interested parties. Plans are reviewed by the public and submitted for additional peer review before they are adopted by the Service. The objectives of the plan will be attained and any necessary funds made available subject to budgetary and other constraints affecting the parties involved, as well as the need to address other priorities. Recovery plans do not obligate other parties to undertake specific tasks and may not necessarily represent the views or the official positions or approval of any individuals or agencies involved in the plan formulation, other than the Service. Recovery plans represent the official position of the Service only after they have been signed by the Regional Director as approved. Approved recovery plans are subject to modification as dictated by new information, changes in species status, and the completion of recovery actions. By approving this recovery plan, the Regional Director certifies that the data used in its development represent the best scientific and commercial information available at the time it was written. Copies of all documents reviewed in the development of the plan are available in the administrative record, located at the Panama City Field Office in Panama City, Florida.
