Description: Conservation Sites represent key areas of the landscape of protection and stewardship action because of the natural heritage resources and habitat they support. Conservation sites are polygons built around one or more rare plant or animal, or significant natural community or geological feature. Sites are designed to include the element and, where possible, its associated habitat, and buffer or other adjacent land thought necessary for the element's conservation. For rare aquatic or semi-aquatic species we define Stream Conservation Sites (SCSs), which encompass stream/river reaches, waterbodies, and terrestrial contributing areas containing or associated with aquatic or semi-aquatic EOs, including upstream and downstream reaches and tributaries up to 3-km stream distance from EOs. There are almost 2200 terrestrial and SCS site records in the Conservation Sites coverage; these sites encompass all viable, recently-verified element occurrences documented in our databases. Conservation Sites and SCSs are given a biodiversity significance ranking based on the rarity, quality, and number of natural heritage resources they contain. Conservation Sites can be used to identify land management needs and protection priorities. They can also be used as a screening tool, to identify potential conflicts with development activities, and they can be used for proactive planning to ensure that development projects successfully avoid or enhance natural heritage resources.
