C. Narrative Outline for Recovery Actions <br /> 1. Define, manage, and restore watersheds. A full description of the <br /> rationale and recommended procedures for accomplishing this recovery <br /> action, including the steps listed below, are included in the body of the <br /> text and will not be repeated here. <br /> 1.1 Assemble Interdisciplinary Teams. (see 13. , page 23) <br /> 1.2 Conduct Watershed-Orchid Evaluation. (see #2. , page 22-23) <br /> 1.3 Define and delineate Riparian Habitat Conservation Areas and Critical <br /> Contributing Areas. (see #4. , page 25) <br /> I.4 Develop Riparian/Aquatic Management Objectives (RMOs) . (see #5. , page <br /> 25) <br /> 1.5 Develop Standards and Guidelines. (see #6. , page 25) <br /> 1.6 Determine population and habitat recovery goals for the watershed to <br /> use as criteria for delisting. (see #2. ,b. , 1) , page 22) <br /> 1.7 Identify, describe, and prioritize watershed, riparian habitat, and <br /> orchid population recovery and restoration projects. (see #2. ,b. ,5) , <br /> page 22) <br /> 1.8 Establish monitoring objectives and design a monitoring plan. (see <br /> #2. ,b. ,6) , page 23) <br /> 1 .9 Develop an Action Plan and Implementation Schedule for establishing <br /> RMOs and Standards and Guidelines and carrying out recovery and <br /> restoration projects and the monitoring program. (see #3. ,b. , page <br /> 24) <br /> 1.10 Work with public and private resource managers and Federal and state <br /> agencies to implement the action plan. (see #3. ,b. , page 24) <br /> 1 .11 Evaluate ongoing activities for compatibility with RMOs and Standards <br /> and Guidelines, recommend modifications as appropriate. (see #7, page <br /> 26) <br /> 1.12 Evaluate progress and report to the orchid Recovery Team. (see <br /> #3. ,b. , page 24 and 19, page 27) <br /> 2. Implement interim recovery actions for orchid populations associated with <br /> natural stream systems. Assembling ID Teams, conducting watershed <br /> evaluation, and developing and implementing management recommendations is <br /> expected to take from 6 months to 1 year following final approval of this <br /> recovery plan. Every effort should be made to expedite that process. <br /> During the interim, however, recovery actions should occur. Recovery <br /> actions should be directed toward protecting known populations and <br /> maintaining or enhancing habitat conditions for the orchid. Actions can <br /> 30 <br />
