+ Overview on ACJV Priorities

+ Overview Why do we need to focus? Historic changes in ACJV scope Limitations Aligning capacity & priorities

+ ACJV’s Original Focus

+ ACJV’s Historic Focus American Black Duck wintering habitat Coastal wetland wintering areas High-quality stopover habitat in Lower Great Lakes/St. Lawrence Valley Breeding habitat in New England

+ Growth in the 21 st Century “All-Bird” move expanded scope Dozens more habitat types Hundreds of new species Breeding, wintering & stopover habitat JV budget increased, mostly for new JVs

+ All Bird Conservation BCR planning across ACJV area Wide variety of species/habitats No budget for science/projects No funding source to rival NAWCA

+ Current Capacity 2 Science staff 2 Delivery staff 1 Outreach & 1 Administrator Coordinate one flyway & 1/3 of states

+ Why Prioritize? ACJV Mission : “Provide a forum for…partners to coordinate and improve the effectiveness of bird habitat conservation planning, delivery and evaluation in the Atlantic Flyway.” HUGE area 291 Priority Species - Many habitats & conservation challenges ACJV goal: Increase effectiveness Biggest ‘BANG for BUCK’ MUST SET PRIORITIES

+ Why Prioritize? 18 other habitat JVs are more focused Our scope should match our capacity

+ Core Functions Habitat Delivery: FWS wetland grants NAWCA Average 12 Standard ($1M) grants /yr Average 15 Small ($75k) grants /yr

+

+ Core Functions Habitat Delivery: FWS wetland grants National Coastal Wetland Grants R4 Average: FundedAcresGrantsTotals 23,126$1.7M$3.3M R5 Average: Funded AcresGrant$Total 61,645$4.4M$9.1M

+ Core Functions Science Coordination Integrated Wetland Management & Monitoring (IWMM) Population & habitat objectives Priority science needs & LCCs DSL project(s) in SAMBI & NALCC

+ Aligning Capacity & Priorities Presentations on past/current priorities Activities we want to continue Suggest modest increase in one area
