Recovery plans are prepared by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and, in this case, with the assistance of recovery unit teams, State and Tribal agencies, and others. Objectives 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 necessarily represent the views or the official positions or indicate the approval of any individuals or agencies involved in the plan formulation, other than the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. Recovery plans represent the official position of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service only after they have been signed by the Director or Regional Director as approved. Approved recovery plans are subject to modification as dictated by new findings, changes in species status, and the completion of recovery tasks.

Qualifications and experience 3 I am 64 years old and reside in Christchurch. I hold BSc (Hons) and PhD degrees in Chemistry from the University of Canterbury and have worked all my professional life until 2010 as a research chemist and scientist in wool science1 at the Wool Research Organisation of New Zealand (Inc) and its successors. 4 In the last five years I have been working virtually full time in a voluntary capacity as Conservation Officer for Whitewater NZ, on various issues concerning river and water conservation in New Zealand. 5 Since being introduced to sailing boats as a youngster, and then joining the University of Canterbury Canoe Club (UCCC) in 1971, and building my first canvas white water kayak, I have developed a life-long interest in white water paddling. This has involved me making journeys over the last forty six years to various well-known white water rivers throughout New Zealand and also in the United Kingdom, France, Austria, Germany, Switzerland, Australia and the USA.

  • Payette River Basin Initiative

    Payette River Basin Initiative

    Payette River Basin Initiative Purpose The purpose of the Payette River Basin (PRB) Initiative is to utilize conservation easements in permanently conserving portions of land which hold natural, recreational, agricultural and hydrological water resource value. The PRB initiative hopes to receive and focus local, regional and national resources to accomplish this goal. The waterways, lakes, and wild country within and around the basin has drawn people to the area for generations and with increased use, development is inevitable. The Payette Land Trust (PLT) has long understood the importance of the Basin to the area’s quality of life, economic viability, unique natural beauty and the importance to the State’s water quality. The PLT will strive to keep the land in private ownership and provide the opportunity for public access through agreements with willing private landowners. Goal The Goal of the PRB initiative is to permanently conserve a connected corridor from the Payette Lake inlet to Cabarton Bridge along the main stem of the North Fork Payette River. This effort will allow for access, recreation and movement of both people and wildlife within the corridor, while conserving the existing natural beauty and water quality. Payette River Basin Initiative Payette Land Trust: What We Believe The PLT believes in conserving the rural landscape of west central Idaho for the benefit of our community and future generations. We promote a community ethic that values and conserves its working agricultural properties and timberlands in balance with thoughtful development. We envision dedicated areas of open access and connectivity encouraging people to take part in their environment.
