Dear Registrants:

Thank you for registering for the “Super-Combo” Working with the Endangered Species Act: A Practical Primer for Decision makers, Biologists, and Staff Specialists short course to be rescheduled in Savannah, Georgia. Please look for the logistical memorandum from Sam Stockdale being e-mailed to all those registered. We look forward to a productive course with all of you.

About the Course

The short course is intended to be highly interactive. Our intent is to provide a relaxing yet rigorous learning environment for you. We will provide many opportunities for you to participate in the seminar through group discussion, breakout sessions, and group projects. In order to make this seminar worthwhile, productive, and enjoyable, we expect and welcome your participation and expect you to bring your practical experience and knowledge to bear on the discussions.

A detailed schedule will follow. Course components will include:

  • Legal Process and Administrative Law
  • Protecting and Managing Biodiversity in an Era of Change
  • ESA Prohibitions and Exceptions: Sections 9 and 10
  • ESA Section 7, including how Section 7 relates with Section 10 and the proactive elements of Section 7
  • The Role of Federal Agencies in ESA Implementation: ESA Section 7 and Consultation, with guest speaker from Fish & Wildlife Service
  • Field Day exploring applications of ESA and TES principles
  • Best Practices in TES Management

We will have a final detailed schedule available shortly before the course. All segments of the course are important and build on each other, so please make travel plans that allow you to attend the entire course.

Dress comfortably for these sessions, and come with an open and inquisitive mind. We always learn a great deal from your comments, questions, and experiences so feel free to share your examples of TES management.
