Supplemental Information
The corridor delineations presented in this geodatabase are intended to provide a basic screening tool to help guide and support management decisions. The expanse of the project area requires that the results are broad-scale in nature, and therefore less precise than highly detailed site-specific analyses. The results are unequivocally not intended to replace or override site-specific assessments; conversely, they are intended to highlight areas that would warrant such assessments as necessary.
