Description: The Florida Forever Conservation Needs Assessment is an analysis of the geographic distribution of certain types of natural resources, or resource-based land uses (such as recreation or sustainable forestry), that have been identified by the Legislature as needing increased conservation attention. The Inventory developed or compiled statewide data for 15 resource types that have been identified by the Florida Forever Advisory Council as the focus of Florida Forever’s conservation actions. The geographic data for these resource types is compared with existing public conservation lands and proposed environmental land acquisition projects to evaluate the protection status of these resources andto guide decisions about future conservation efforts. The Florida Forever Conservation Needs Assessment was prepared specifically to inform the Florida Forever Advisory Council and addresses 15 of 34 performance measures identified by the Council. The Assessment considers only measures that guide environmental land acquisition decisions; it does not consider measures that are related to management performance or restoration. The Assessment is an objective, science-based analysis using the best statewide data currently available. It is the result of a collaborative effort involving many of Florida’s natural resource experts, and represents the general consensus of these experts, although final responsibility for interpretation of the data resides with the Inventory. Data for the Needs Assessment are maintained and updated by Florida Natural Areas Inventory under contract to the Florida Department of Environmental Protection and in collaboration with many partners. The data represent a statewide view of resource distributions and are intended to inform state conservation priorities and measure progress of the Florida Forever program in protecting these resources.
