Conservation Principles

The overall effort to protect habitat and associated populations of sage-grouse in Utah is based upon the principles set forth in the Greater Sage-Grouse Conservation Objectives Final Report, prepared by the FWS chartered Conservation Objectives Team (COT), and dated February, 2013. The COT report reiterates that sage-grouse are a landscape species, and long-term species conservation will require the cooperation of the western states and federal agencies to negate the need for a listing of the species.

The COT report emphasized the need to protect the “best of the best” habitat given the high cost, long time-frame to completion and relative uncertainty of sagebrush restoration, and recognized that not all populations are required to contribute to a range-wide conservation of the species.


The COT report also recognized that because of variation in range-wide, and local, environmental conditions, state wildlife management agencies are in the optimal position to determine the appropriate conservation goals for the species, and give advice on the necessary methods to achieve the goals



Conservation Goal and Objectives

This Plan builds upon earlier efforts of state agencies to protect sage-grouse. In 2003, the Utah Wildlife Board adopted the first Strategic Plan for the Management of Sage Grouse in Utah. In 2009, the plan was revised. Those plans identified local population dynamics, site-specific threats, and research needs, and recommended management strategies to conserve the species.

Many of the research needs were subsequently addressed, thereby contributing to the deep body of knowledge about sage-grouse in Utah (See Appendix 8). The biological pillars of sage-grouse conservation remain; 1) protection of habitat which provides for the year-round life-cycle needs of the species, 2) perpetuation of conditions necessary to ensure recruitment of a continuing population within the aggregate state population, and 3) enhancement or improvement of sage-grouse habitat that has been impaired or altered through restoration or rehabilitation activities.
